For boost: There's a long-running PR for this, because it's really not simple to upgrade: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199601 So in short: It's not there yet, but it might be close. If you can test/help with the open issues in that PR, that might speed up a new boost into the tree. For protobuf, there's a brand-new PR: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212973 I searched for dependent ports in /usr/ports using grep -Rl 'devel/protobuf' * > /tmp/file and reduced it by the depends that aren't exactly protobuf. Using that way, I found 33 other ports. It needs to be checked if they still build with the new protobuf and probably if they run, too. I assume there are many indirect dependencies, so other ports might be affected as well. It's not a trivial task. -- p...@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 4 years to go ! _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
