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, the ports will be deleted. The goal of this posting is to make this process much more visible to the wider FreeBSD community. portname: databases/gnats description: Cygnus GNATS bug tracking system maintainer: ceri@FreeBSD.org status: FORBIDDEN deprecated because: Security issues expiration date: 2004-08-20 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=gnats portname: devel/p5-Config-Ini description: Perl interface to MS-Windows registry and .ini files maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: no longer on CPAN expiration date: 2005-04-17 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=p5-Config-Ini portname: devel/p5-Server-FastPL description: Perl module to eliminate the compile-time of big scripts maintainer: tobez@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: no longer on CPAN expiration date: 2005-03-21 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=p5-Server-FastPL portname: devel/swarm description: The Swarm Simulation System maintainer: horance@freera.net status: BROKEN deprecated because: Does not compile expiration date: 2005-02-18 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=swarm portname: editors/gxedit description: A simple GTK+ editor maintainer: dom@happygiraffe.net deprecated because: project no longer exists expiration date: 2005-06-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=editors&portname=gxedit portname: editors/ooodict-es_ES description: Spanish (Spain) MySpell dictionary for OpenOffice.org maintainer: openoffice@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Checksum mismatch expiration date: 2005-02-18 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=editors&portname=ooodict-es_ES portname: emulators/linux_base-6 description: The base set of packages needed in Linux mode maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: FORBIDDEN deprecated because: RHSA-2004:383-01, RHSA-2000-115, RHSA-2000-117 expiration date: 2005-05-14 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=emulators&portname=linux_base-6 portname: graphics/qtutils description: QuickTime Utilities maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: libquicktime API changed expiration date: 2005-06-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.firepipe.net/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=qtutils portname: graphics/togl description: A Tk OpenGL widget maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Resulting application unusable, cf.
