As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness. Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation. The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below. If no one has stepped forward before that time to propose a way to fix the problems (such as via a PR), the ports will be deleted. portname: dns/maradns description: DNS server with focus on security and simplicity maintainer: mat@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: MaraDNS 1 end-of-life: June 21, 2015 expiration date: 2015-06-21 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=dns&portname=maradns portname: graphics/luxrender description: Physically based and unbiased rendering system maintainer: danfe@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Broken for more than 6 month expiration date: 2013-11-18 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=luxrender portname: lang/php52 description: PHP Scripting Language maintainer: admin@lissyara.su deprecated because: PHP 5.2 series is strongly discouraged for new installations, migrate now expiration date: 2014-03-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=lang&portname=php52 portname: net/asterisk10 description: An Open Source PBX and telephony toolkit maintainer: flo@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: asterisk 10 reached EOL on 2013-12-15 expiration date: 2014-02-28 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net&portname=asterisk10
