Synopsis: bglibs-1.101 is marked as broken: Fails self-tests.

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: linimon
State-Changed-When: Tue Sep 12 18:10:40 UTC 2006
State-Changed-Why: 
Short answer: yes, it is.

Longer answer: portsmon (http://portsmon.freebsd.org) sends out reports
every 2 weeks to maintainers of ports marked BROKEN (on i386-6).  Also,
as commits are made to ports to mark them BROKEN (for any case), in
general email is sent to the maintainer, but that's a manual process.

Having PRs in GNATS that only say "foo is broken" is thus redundant:
the information is already contained in the Ports Collection itself.

PRs with patches are welcome to be sent to GNATS :-)

But thanks for the submission regardless; it just doesn't really fit
with GNATS' purpose.
