I have Samba Version 4.10.10 installed. When attempting to build devel/kio-extras with the:
SAMBA=on: Needed to build the SMB kioslave which is the default setting in the port, the build fails with the message that the wrong version of 'samba' is installed. Version 4.8 of samba is already EOL'd "2019-09-17," according to the samba web site. The current stable version is v4.11.2, released Tuesday, October 29 2019; however, that is not even available in the ports system. What I want to know is why the "devel/kio-extras" port is still dependent on samba -= v4.8 if it is EOL'd? If the port cannot be made to work with a modern version of samba; then the option should either be removed or turned off as the default in the makefile, preferable with a notation of why. -- Carmel
