I am packaging such software for NetBSD's pkgsrc. pkgsrc is a portable
package infrastructure that runs on a few different operating systems:
NetBSD, Solaris, Linux, Darwin (Mac OS X), FreeBSD, OpenBSD, IRIX,
BSD/OS, AIX, Interix (Microsoft Windows Services for Unix),
DragonFlyBSD, OSF/1 and possibly others

On such infrastructure, all packages are installed in a special
directory, which normally is /usr/pkg, but can be instructed to be
anywhere, without any kind of damage to the system. This directory
contains all usual subdirectories like bin/ sbin/ lib/ share/ and so on.

I noticed there are some hardcoded options and directory names, and
there are some of which I need to patch for pkgsrc. This specific
#include problem occurred (I actually had several broken compiles), and
so I decided to patch the include files so that any other applications
that need these will not need additional CFLAGS just because of these
includes.

I also noticed this:
MusclePAM does not have a configure script
muscleTools does not have a configure script
XCardII does not have a configure script

my sources for them are (.tar.gz):
DISTNAME= muscleframework-1.1.5
MASTER_SITES= http://alioth.debian.org/download.php/463/

DISTNAME= muscleTools-0.9.2
MASTER_SITES= http://alioth.debian.org/download.php/395/

DISTNAME= XCardII-0.9.9
MASTER_SITES= http://alioth.debian.org/download.php/394/

Am I running outdated versions that don't have configure scripts instead
of your new ones?

Some of the packages and committed so far:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pkgsrc-wip/wip/pcsc-lite/
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pkgsrc-wip/wip/libmusclecard/
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pkgsrc-wip/wip/muscle-pkcs11/
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pkgsrc-wip/wip/muscle-tools/
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pkgsrc-wip/wip/openct/ (I need
this as an ifd for my reader)

I really apologize for any offense you might have taken, but I really
did not mean any.

Thanks, and sorry for any inconvenience
