--- Comment #5 from Dan Langille <dvl@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Mark Linimon from comment #2)

I find the existing usage interesting. I will talk about the globs later.

$ grep 'users of python' UPDATING
  AFFECTS: users of python and net/samba410, devel/talloc, devel/tevent,
databases/tdb, databases/ldb*
  AFFECTS: users of python
  AFFECTS: users of python
  AFFECTS: users of python setuptools

$ grep 'users of lang/python' UPDATING
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python3
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python3
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and ports
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python*
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python*
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and py-*
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and py-*

If upgrading the port requires special steps like changing configuration fi=
les
or running a specific program, it must be documented in this file. The form=
at
of an entry in this file is:

YYYYMMDD:
  AFFECTS: users of portcategory/portname
  AUTHOR: Your name <Your email address>

  Special instructions
###

There is no mention of glob usage however, FreshPorts does detect and use i=
t.=20
For example:

###
20131003:
  AFFECTS: users of lang/python* and ports
  AUTHOR: mva@FreeBSD.org
###

Does show up at https://www.freshports.org/lang/python37

It also affects all lang/python* ports such as
https://www.freshports.org/lang/python-doc-html/ - this may be an unattended
side-effect

This is also useful on FreshPorts: Affects: */py*

I think if the entry were changed from python to one of these, it would com=
ply
and match existing UPDATING entries.

* lang/python*
* lang/python36 lang/python37 lang/python38

I think the latter is more appropriate if it does indeed only affect the
indicate ports.
