All that sounds good. Stuff going away, coming in, that's all OK.

My use case: to know what ABI to check for. This isn't necessarily that =
it will find it... but that FreshPorts knows that FreeBSD:15:* is now =
being built.

Or that FreeBSD:11:* is no longer a thing, for example.

This is me wanting to avoid doing anything manual. The approach: =
FreshPorts just does stuff and nobody has to prod it along.
