I was thinking: all the information is in the PR Yes it is rm@freebsd.org Yes it is graphics/gimp-gmic-plugin Yes, I did last hear from him on I did not mail him directly. Our communication worked via that PR. That works until 14 December 2015. After that I tried to ask him - unhappily again via the PR. > This isn't just being pedantic.

Okay, I understand that and will remeber it the next time. Sorry. I felt a little bit helpless. A am not a programmer, I cannot fix a port by myself. I just like to use graphics/gimp-gmic-plugin And this port has (different) issues in versions 1.5.x 1.6.0 1.6.8 (not in the port yet) rm@ gave me a patch to try and to test 1.6.8 ¡V to step over the issues of 1.5.x and 1.6.0 - But it has other issues. Does completely not work (a show stopper). In the old versions 1.6.0 and 1.5.x some filters does not wort (explained in the PR). Heino
