I don't know why you brought the contents of a PR to the mailing list. How have you been mistreated? The port is unstaged. Over 500 unstaged ports have already been removed and refdb is one of the last 20. You personally have known about the removal since 28 July, the day you were also informed the port no longer had a maintainer. > What is the policy of FreeBSD's port system?

There are not "a lot" of ports waiting to be fixed. Of the remaining 21 ports, maybe 25% have some sort of effort. Probably more than half of these are getting removed tonight. silc-toolkit was already staged. Everything is already staged except for these 21 ports. > In a hurry, to prevent the destruction of the port textproc/refdb, I provided a patch. > The patch is a bit messy since I had to incorporate all changes made in the meanwhile > after creation of refdb-1.0.2.tar.gz (provided at: > http://sourceforge.net/projects/refdb/files/latest/download). > > Please see PR "Bug 193484 - [textproc/refdb] Update port". Gee, thanks for opening another PR on the same exact topic. And there's no attachment on that PR. John
