Hi FreeBSD Ports Maintainer,
Could you remove the *-rtems-* ports? They fail to build (the user has to
change to bash to build them), and once built they don't build RTEMS. There are
additional issues stated below.
I'm following up and will act as needed. Thanks for the heads up.
Just to be prudent. These appear to be being updated which hints
that someone cares about them. It would be good to know why
they are updating them. Are they actually using RTEMS or just
doing it to them up to date.
But there are some general issues:
+ the official tools use CPU-rtemsVERSION as the target where
VERSION is 4.10, 4.11, etc to indicate the major RTEMS version.
We have included the VERSION component for a decade.
+ The particular set of tool versions and patches do not correspond
to anything the RTEMS Project considers a "set".
We are trying to separate tool version and patch management from
packaging. If the person who maintains these wants to work with us
so the ports collection follows the recommended naming, versions,
patches, etc., we would be very grateful.
Otherwise, they are just wrong and that's not good.
