Hi,
The reason its not in the tree is because data loss occurs when the port
is removed, this is because its binaries,settings & data are mixed
together with dynamicly generated file names thrown in for good measure.
This needs to be fixed upstream.
All the port currently allows you to do is install Opennms with ease.

The changelog for the 2 ports can be found here:
