>Description:
It appears that current category of `misc' is not the best-suited for
`misc/wmessage' port: both because it seems illogical on its own (one
should look in `x11' for x-popup-type-of-stuff), plus there is
`x11/gmessage' already for Gnome that serves the very same purpose.
>How-To-Repeat:
N/A
>Fix:
Simply change CATEGORIES line in Makefile + repo-copy the port (or
just remove it from the ports and then re-add it if there's no much of
revision history to preserve).
