 > Is it possible to specify a specific version for the radlib dependency?
 I didn't see any mention of how to do this in the user manual.

 No, there is no way to specify that. There's usually no need to: of course
 we wouldn't commit the wview update until the required radlib update had
 already been committed. If you really need to determine the version of a
 dependency, you have to do so rather manually; see the pango portfile for
 an example of how this can be done.

 There's also no way to ask MacPorts to install a specific version of a
 port; it can only install the version specified in the Portfile, though
 there is [wiki:howto/InstallingOlderPort a way] a user can work around
 this.

 > Should I open a new ticket for each version update? Since this ticket is
 still open, I've just been adding the updated portfiles here.

 Keep attaching your new patches to the same ticket until the ticket is
 resolved.


 > Is there any way I can get permission to commit updated portfiles to the
 distro?

 The Guide explains the process for
 [http://guide.macports.org/chunked/project.membership.html requesting
 commit access].

 wview committed.

 I committed your 5.6.4 update in r60332 with the following changes:

  * I did not change the $Id$ line as you indicated (to "$Id&") because
 that's not syntactically correct. You can leave the $Id$ line alone when
 submitting patches; the Subversion client handles updating this line
 automatically at commit time.
  * I did not increase the revision because the revision should be set to
 zero when you increase the version.
  * I removed the redundant "xinstall -d" in the post-destroot phase.

 I was not sure why you added a library dependency on gawk. Does wview
 really use gawk at both build time and runtime?

 In the future, if your tickets don't get attention, you can send a
 reminder email to the macports-dev mailing list. Any committer there
 should be able to commit your changes to resolve the ticket.
