I'll note that https://github.com/jrmarino/Ravenports says: Official Website Please visit http://ravenports.ironwolf.systems for additional and = current information. Ravenports has its own repository: Unlike ports-mgmt/synth, Ravenports is not based on the FreeBSD ports tree in FreeBSD. So switching is more than a tool change. The list of available ports is visible at: http://ravenports.ironwolf.systems/catalog/ It said "2,356 entries" at the time I looked. They are just getting started. It looks like for those not on x86-64/amd64 and aarch64 will possibly be out of range for Ravenports. Also some *BSD's may be as well. Details: Extracting some text from the Supported Platforms area of the http://ravenports.ironwolf.systems/ page. . . (Track by looking at the original page.) . . . For the core developers, the main architectures targeted are the x86_64 = and ARM Aarch64. New architecture support from serious contributors capable of performing = the initial bootstrap and periodic quality-assurance builds of the entire Ravenports = tree will be accepted into the project. Long Term Support increasingly unlikely =E2=80=A2 Darwin/Mac OSX/x86_64 =E2=80=A2 OpenBSD/amd64 =E2=80=A2 NetBSD/amd64 =E2=80=A2 i386 (Linux and *BSD) Short Term Platform support planned =E2=80=A2 Solaris 10+ / Illumos =E2=80=A2 FreeBSD/ARM64 =E2=80=A2 Linux/AArch64 Current Currently supported platforms =E2=80=A2 DragonFly 4.9 and later =E2=80=A2 FreeBSD/amd64 Release 11 and later =E2=80=A2 Linux/x86-64 (glib 2.6.32-based) (I listed the contents of the 3 boxes in right-box to left-box order.) =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net
