Now that Issue #4 is fixed, we have to go further.

Dear ports@,

I've noticed that some packages are missing from their respective categories.

For example:

%sqlite3 sqlports-compact

sqlite> select fullpkgpath from Paths where fullpkgpath in (select value from _Categories);
lang/erlang
lang/ghc
lang/mono
lang/node
x11/windowmaker
sqlite>

sqlite> select * from _Categories where value in (select fullpkgpath from Paths where fullpkgpath in (select value from _Categories)) and fullpkgpath like value || '%';
lang/mono|lang/mono
lang/mono-basic|lang/mono
lang/node-java|lang/node
lang/node-typescript|lang/node
x11/windowmaker-extra|x11/windowmaker
x11/windowmaker,-lang|x11/windowmaker
x11/windowmaker,-main|x11/windowmaker
sqlite>

So, it would seem like the set of lang/{erlang,ghc,node}, the packages,
are all missing from their respective categories, whereas lang/mono and
x11/windowmaker are not.

What would be the proper fix here?

One can also look at the meta category:

sqlite> select * from _Categories where value = 'meta';
meta/avr|meta
meta/geda|meta
meta/gnome,-extra|meta
meta/gnome,-main|meta
meta/gnustep|meta
meta/haskell-platform|meta
meta/kde4,-games|meta
meta/kde4,-toys|meta
meta/kde4,-network|meta
meta/kde4,-minimal|meta
meta/kde4,-sdk|meta
meta/kde4,-main|meta
meta/kde4,-admin|meta
meta/msp430|meta
meta/mupen64plus,-main|meta
meta/mupen64plus,-extra|meta
meta/xfce,-extras|meta
meta/xfce,-main|meta
sqlite>

sqlite> select * from _Categories where fullpkgpath in (select fullpkgpath from _Categories where value = 'meta') and not (value = 'meta');
meta/kde4,-admin|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-games|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-main|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-minimal|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-network|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-sdk|x11/kde4
meta/kde4,-toys|x11/kde4
sqlite>

Since the meta/kde4* set is part of x11/kde4, shouldn't meta/gnome*,
meta/gnustep, meta/haskell-platform and meta/xfce likewise be part of
x11/gnome, x11/gnustep, lang/ghc and x11/xfce4, respectively?

Cheers,
Constantine. http://ports.su/

This could be fixed either directly within the ports tree, through the relevant Makefiles, or right within ports-readmes and/or sqlports-compact, through some SQL magic.
