Awesome.

The next parts are to do:

Check pkgsrc setup:

	pkglint # install that first

Maybe check if new files are installed:

	make print-PLIST | tee my.PLIST
	diff -u PLIST my.PLIST

The PLIST may have to be manually checked though (and there may be 
multiple or dynamic PLISTs).

Then make a diff:

	make clean
	cvs diff -u | tee my.diff

And submit that my.diff to maintainer or via pkgsrc list or as a PR 
(send-pr).


To answer your other email:

Have a look at the pkgsrc Guide (under pkgsrc/doc/pkgsrc.txt or .html or 
on the web).

And ask questions on the pkgsrc-users@ list as needed.

Good luck
