I've recently asked myself the same question: multimedia/gpac-mp4box is flagged BROKEN=unfetchable DEPRECATED=Broken for more than 6 months multimedia/gpac-libgpac uses the same distfile from the same mirror and is not marked broken. I figured once a port is marked unfetchable, it will be deleted, even it is a transient failure. Of course, unless someone opens a bug report. _______________________________________________ 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"
