Dropping graphics/nomacs

2020-01-09 Thread bsd
Hi, everyone, I was notified that I'm still (technically) the maintainer of graphics/nomacs. As I neither use Nomacs nor FreeBSD on my desktop(s) anymore, I would like to hand it over to someone with time and other required resources. Thank you, everyone. ___

a2ps-letter -> a2ps

2013-05-07 Thread The BSD Dreamer
I wish the UPDATING note on "users of print/a2ps-{a4,letter} ... " had said I should remove a2ps-letter or I guess replace it (ie portmaster -o print/a2ps print/a2ps-letter). Because, while hunting where a port dependency had crept in and broke other packagesI noticed that I had a2ps-lette

nginx SPDY and openssl

2013-05-07 Thread The BSD Dreamer
So, with the new nginx, I saw SPDY. Being curious I turned it on. It said "(SSL req.)", but it wasn't obvious that it mean that it meant openssl from ports, which was going to break everything else that uses SSL on my system. At least everything that needs to verify certificates, because port

Its not doing the right thing about the change in origin So, its trying to build and install 'multimedia/libmtp' and conflicting with 'audio/libmtp'. Had tried "make deinstall reinstall" of the port, but it also failed. Then noticed that for "deinstall" it said: ===> Deinstalling fo

In keeping with current fashion, ports seem to be provided with fewer options and more things sucked in by default. Please don't force dbus on the rest of us, thanks: --- Makefile.orig 2016-03-27 13:38:13.277556000 -0400 +++ Makefile2016-03-27 13:00:07.083467000 -0400 @@ -16,7 +16,6 @@
