https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D222417 Adam Weinberger <adamw@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|New |Open --- Comment #3 from Adam Weinberger <adamw@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Neel Chauhan from comment #2) Thanks for the explanation, Neel. I certainly understand that having a package produced with your particular needs would be much more convenient for your workflow. There's no written policy, but precedent has generally established that a dependent port with specific options is appropriate only when a substantial proportion of end-users will want that exact configuration. In this case, I don't believe that we've met that bar. Flavours support is in the works for the ports tree. That will allow simple creation of multiple packages based upon specific OPTIONS configurations. O= nce that lands, I'll absolutely make a mysql flavour (and another for pgsql). In the meantime I would suggest using poudriere to produce any custom packa= ges that you want. It's very easy to layer a few poudriere-generated packages on top of the upstream FreeBSD pkg repo. I'm going to keep this PR open. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
