--- Comment #3 from rkoberman@gmail.com ---
Ports are not normally removed due to vulnerabilities. I have had ports tha=
t I
needed that had vulnerabilities for literally years. Since you must literal=
ly
disable vulnerability checks to install it and see the report in periodic l=
ogs
nightly, it is up to the person responsible for the system to check on the
issue(s) and determine whether they are relevant to the us of the port in t=
heir
environment.

In the case of libsnd, it is used by quite few ports and removing it would
break a number of ports. Examples:
        twolame-0.3.13_4
        wavegain-1.2.8
        libsamplerate-0.1.9
        speech-dispatcher-0.8.6
        vamp-plugin-sdk-2.6
        jackit-0.125.0_4
        pulseaudio-11.1_1
        audacity-2.2.2_3

I can't really operate without libsnfile.
