P.S.
Just out of curiosity: why weren't these ports removed, since we all
know they were going to stop working?
Why remove them while they are still working fine?
BTW, some already had a deprecation notice.
I know.
What I meant was not to remove them early; I was just curious why they
weren't removed at the same time XFCE 4.16 was introduced, since they
stopped working on that same day.
Rationale is: don't waste time trying to build them, since it's useless.
They are marked BROKEN, so not being build anyway. At least in theory
port rules require a deprecation period for ports before removal,
including BROKEN ones.
Someone could step in and fix them, for example, this is easier if the
port is not actually removed.
