>Description:

>From MOVED:
chinese/xcin25|chinese/xcin|2006-11-05|Reflect its real portname

However, port is still at chinese/xcin25 ...  chinese/xemacs21
expects chinese/xcin to exist, but it doesn't, and so a 'make
describe' at chinese/xemacs21 fails, causing 'make index' for
the PC to fail.

Simple rename doesn't work: at least one port (chinese/xemacs)
still depends on chinese/xcin25 ...

>How-To-Repeat:

Run 'make index' under Ports directory.

>Fix:

Create a symbolic link to fool ports' expected dependency paths:

# cd /usr/ports/chinese
# ln -s xcin25 xcin
