 Hi Yuri,

 What is the point of adding all those fedora/rpm/blah related ports in
the FreeBSD ports tree ?
 Do you use rpms on FreeBSD ? Do you expect people to use dnf to
install software on FreeBSD ? Or do you build rpms on FreeBSD to
install them on Linux ?

 Same question for util-linux, this adds stuff that either already
exists in ports (like flock, getopt and possibly others and btw I
don't see any CONFLICTS added) or exists in base already (cal, hexdump
column).

 Thanks,
