The following reply was made to PR docs/147112; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Johann Kois <jkois@FreeBSD.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, philip@roshambo.org Cc: Subject: Re: docs/147112: broken php5-mysql link in docs Date: Sun, 27 Jun 2010 22:20:00 +0200 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The problem is that for this specific port there is just no pkg-descr file. The port is there, the path is correct. But pkg-descr does not exist. And probably never will. The 404 you get is because links to ports within the documentation are normally links to the pkg-descr file. Only 2 ways to fix that: - - add a pkg-descr file (this would need action from a ports committer) - - change the link in the documentation (make it inactive in the end) Option 1 will probably not happen. All ports of this kind are just "compiling options for the real port" (mysql support for php5 in this case). And there are a lot of them in the ports tree. - -- Johann Kois jkois(at)FreeBSD.org FreeBSD Documentation Project FreeBSD German Documentation Project - https://doc.bsdgroup.de -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkwnsnAACgkQ/rDr791hwtj83gCeIiI5DJb/cQKa0igofUZ8UJP2 9cEAnjfaE2DMYzmoQ/Wozlo22I8BjFPk =KWMM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
