[rt-users] rt 3.8.4 customization (FreeBSD)

[Steve Sizemore]

Thanks very much for your helpful message. Using that, I was able
to figure it out. Just in case anyone else faces this, I'm reporting
what I found.

When installed via the FreeBSD port, RT.pm is actually located in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/RT.pm.  The value for
$MasonLocalComponentRoot is '/usr/local/www/rt38'.

This is exactly correct, although not intuitive. My first attempt was to create
/usr/local/www/rt38/html, and put the modifications there. When that didn't work,
I reread your message, and created /usr/local/www/rt38/Ticket/Display.html, and
sure enough, it works.

Thanks again.
