https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=194721 Bug ID: 194721 Summary: PR documentation wrong says it's okay to submit PRs to notify about newer versions in ports Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: marino@FreeBSD.org The ports bugzilla policy is that PRs are not to be submitted to "helpfully" tell maintainers and/or ports@ mailing list that new versions are available. Yet Kevin Thompson has notified me that the PR documentation says exactly the opposite, and I confirmed it: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/problem-reports/pr-when.html Chapter 2: Some cases where it may be appropriate to submit a problem report about something that is not a bug are: * Notification of updates to externally maintained software (such as ports or software in the contrib/ directory). Please remove this line immediately. It reflects exactly opposite of what is acceptable for a ports PR. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
