Since this version is essentially broken, it seems to me that one of two things should happen: 1) Remove the port. 2) Update the port. I also understand that the pf4freebsd effort is trying to get the pf code in the base system. That's great, but what about people who'd like to use it now? Such as myself. I could follow the directions at: https://solarflux.org/pf/pf+altq-fbsd51.php but, hey, why not save everyone else the trouble? I volunteer to upgrade & commit said upgrade for the pf port. Or I'll remove it if you prefer that approach. Or not? Thanks for your effort, in any case. :) Regards, -- wca
