Those are not deprecated but broken, broken because they don't fetch and they need someone to take care of it, to send the new master_site line for example, I don't have time enough to update/fix all the master_site lines from the whole ports tree, so I I see none of the said master_site provide the distfiles, it is marked as broken because that is what it is. > http://sourceforge.net/projects/heaven/files/Audio%20Applications/Jack%20Related/jack_convolve/ > > security/libident is available via one of the main vlc developers at: > > http://www.remlab.net/files/libident/ > > comms/gsmlib is maintained by Debian: > > http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gsmlib.html Debian having the package doesn't mean that they are the upstream. > > science/bblimage has been renamed to pyvox and is available at: > > http://www.med.upenn.edu/bbl/downloads/pyvox/ > > That's eight false positives out of eleven deprecations that I > selected by inspection, and I didn't spend more than two minutes > checking any of them. > Keep in mind that : deprecated != broken And those ports expecting for somone to look after them for a long time now it is done, then my process is good :) > I will fix the above. > Thanks for a lot. > b. > _______________________________________________ > 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" > _______________________________________________ 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"
