Sample mail is below: Hi there! This is just a friendly note to inform you that you're listed as maintainer of one or more FreeBSD ports which are listed as being broken or having a build problem. To find out more information, please check the following address: http://www.freebsd.org/~fenner/errorlogs/ and search for your email address(es). These error logs were produced by the FreeBSD package-building cluster, and some of the problems may in fact already have been fixed, or are not actual problems. If this is the case I apologise and thank you for taking the time to check. The majority of ports on this list are not broken per se (they compile and install correctly), but have wrong or incomplete pkg/PLIST files which mean they leave behind extra files when the port is deinstalled. These are shown in the 'list of extra files and directories' section. If you would like to submit a fix to your port, please do so via send-pr(1) - see http://www.freebsd.org/porters-handbook/index.html for more information. Please direct any further inquries to the ports@freebsd.org mailing list.
