This doesn't take into account the fact that Qt1 still interacts with newer versions of Qt. It's a nightmare to try to fix this problem correctly, and would be even more so with somebody else maintaining the port. Easiest solution is just to get rid of it. People can still install it from source if they so desire. > Could you point me to your message of 9 months ago where you announced > your intentions to do this? http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=30292 Nobody expressed any interest in maintaining the port since then. It is a waste of time regardless of who is maintaining it, and especially so if the maintainer is ports@freebsd.org.
