            Bug ID: 245176
           Summary: security/i2p pkg, remove or rebuild *with* docs.
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bsdunix44@gmail.com

The security/i2p pkg is completely useless. It installs with zero
documentation, post install message, no info on how to configure and run it=
, it
has no man page, it gives no help when starting the service about anything,=
 if
it needs a configuration file, where a config file is located, absolutely
nothing. This is the most useless pkg I think I have ever installed. It does
nothing, it says nothing, it has no documentation of any kind, no error
messages, save the two below.=20

How did this ever get committed?? Build a man page or give some post install
message on how to use this or remove it from the build. It's a complete dud=
 and
waste of CPU in the build system.
