Orphan ports
by Alan Mizrahi 28 May '11

28 May '11

Hi, It has come to my attention that Lucas Hazel retired 9 months ago, but he is still listed as the maintainer of 16 ports in opt and 20 in contrib. I think someone should be taking over those ports. The ports I am really interested in are all in opt: grub, qemu, kqemu. If nobody wants to take these ports I would like to request full access to opt. Best regards, Alan Mizrahi

[ports] pkg-config, new dependency to glib
by Juergen Daubert 22 May '11

22 May '11

Hi all, the latest pkg-config, version 0.26, no longer ships with a bundled glib but depends on a system glib. That means core/pkg-config would depend on opt/glib, which is of course not acceptable. We have two options IMO: a) move pkg-config to opt. At a first glance I don't see any core-port depending on it, so this should work. The drawback is, that every opt/contrib-ports which has pkg-config as a (buildtime-)dependency must list it in the dependency header. b) move glib to core. Opinions? thanks and best regards Juergen -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux
