Hi Larry, thanks for your help with this!
Sorry, I wanted to CC you in my last mesage but it slipped my mind.



Here's a port for 7.0.11 with your changes incorporated.
The diff is long so I just attached the port.
New: jpeg support.

The port is pretty much done. Could use some notes.
The PLIST has a lot of @'s. Maybe needa a massage? Looks a bit weird.

This old port has been broken/unbroken many times,
and has accumulated some cruft, as evidenced by the overkill of
patching and setting options and vars to change the same thing.



From your changes:

This patching isn't needed with 7.0.11.
+-PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/etc
++PATH=$OPATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/etc

This isn't needed but maybe it's better to specify anyway?
--with-FAXGID="dialer"



From the old port:

Unless I'm missing something, removing the backslash accomplishes nothing;
it will disappear on its own.

Still trying to wrap my head around the intention here.

"# OpenBSD does not have JBIG-in-TIFF support"

Why not? Can it be added?
