Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation. The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below. If no one has stepped forward before that time to propose a way to fix the problems (such as via a PR), the ports will be deleted. portname: archivers/bsdar description: BSD-licensed replacement of the ar utility maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: part of the base system expiration date: 2013-02-28 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=archivers&portname=bsdar portname: databases/py-MySQLdb-devel description: Access a MySQL database through Python maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: use databases/py-MySQLdb instead expiration date: 2012-05-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=py-MySQLdb-devel portname: devel/kdevelop description: IDE for a wide variety of programming tasks maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: expiration date: 2011-11-30 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=kdevelop portname: devel/libgetline description: A small, portable, and easy to use command line library maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Upstream disapear and distfile is no more available expiration date: 2013-02-28 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=libgetline portname: graphics/vrml2pov description: Convert VRML files to POVRay source maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: unfetchable expiration date: 2012-03-21 build errors: http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-errorlogs/e.9.20120115095227/vrml2pov-0.7_1.log (_Dec__5_23:14:33_UTC_2011) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=vrml2pov portname: misc/fortune-mod-the-godfather description: Compilation of excuses from the "The Godfather" maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: No longer supported expiration date: 2012-05-06 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=misc&portname=fortune-mod-the-godfather portname: www/zope-cmf description: The Zope Content Management Framework (CMF) maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Doesn't work with modern Zope versions expiration date: 2012-02-06 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=zope-cmf
