Well, it all depends on how much work volunteers are willing to do. fwiw, I periodically send out email about broken ports (as evaluated on i386-current): http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20090126081726.DBA671CC6F A less verbose, but constantly updated, version is at http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portsconcordanceforbroken.py . It's showing 165 ports ATM, a few with PRs to fix them. mcl _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
