Currently, these ports track the release (2.2.x) and stable (2.4.x) series of DansGuardian. 2.2.x has been end-of-lifed (actually a few months ago), and a new devel release has been made (2.5.x). > How does one move ports around? For instance, I'd like to drop support for 2.2.x, move 2.4.x to www/dansguardian and start supporting 2.5.x via www/dansguardian. Is is as simple as submitting a PR with a patch to move www/dansguardian from 2.2.x to 2.4.x, and another PR to move www/dansguardian-devel from 2.4.x to 2.5.x? Or is there another mechanism? Should I move the ports to version-based names like www/dansguardian22 and www/dansguardian24 and keep www/dansguardian-devel as the development port? I suggest : 1. repo-copy dansguardian-devel to dansguardian 2. update dansguardian to latest 2.4.x 3. repo-copy dansguardian to dansguardian-devel 4. update dansguardian-devel to latest 2.5.x or dansguardian22 vs. dansguardian24 vs. dansguardian-devel is another good idea -- Pi seconds is a nanocentury. --- Tom Duff --Dxnq1zWXvFF0Q93v Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9vy5IrMYBZRHAI4IRApCFAJsHFLQTDC8Vu7b64IDZs2ziv45QkQCeOo8U 38B7t3U5XfIEVavb/zxyDTs= =QZV8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Dxnq1zWXvFF0Q93v-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
