I cannot see that the documentation mentions anything about ZFS being in po= rts too, why, or how to use that over base, if one wants to do that? A search in the interweb provides answers like, "it's only there for the de= vs to do testing", eh what!? Should they (the devs) then not have their own= ports or something if that is the case? Gullible persons like myself might= be tempted to just install it and hope for the best, well because it's in = ports after all, so it must be in there for those who need more recent vers= ions of ZFS right? :) [1]: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/18082
