https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D283266 Charlie Li <vishwin@freebsd.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |vishwin@freebsd.org --- Comment #6 from Charlie Li <vishwin@freebsd.org> --- The discussion with fluffy@ about the consideration of taking a port away f= rom an active maintainer who is a committer needs to be public, especially since the maintainer was not publicly involved in that discussion. I as a desktop@ member am not comfortable with having this port dumped on us without at lea= st the current maintainer's explicit consent, regardless of timeout. The reason why sunpoet@ has not approved cmake usage previously, and is unlikely to be approved still, is because upstream's build/install documentation does not mention it *anywhere*, let alone the Unix section: https://curl.se/docs/install.html The first step to maybe making cmake palatable is to not only document it as such, but more importantly endorse = it over the current documented process for Unix-like platforms which is autoto= ols, officially upstream. Everything else, including any technical arguments, is irrelevant. curl.se is the canonical home of the project and is where the release tarba= lls live, so it should still be the primary MASTER_SITES. Anything can slip through the cracks regardless of maintainer type, I don't= see how dumping this on desktop@ helps things. The current process of suggesting changes to the maintainer works as intended, even if they are not approved = and later reverted. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
