I=E2=80=99d like portmgr to write a policy about ports deprecation / remova= l. The case of devel/liblas is a very good example: - no known vulnerability; - upstream still exists and the tarball is fetchable; - it is used as a dependency by other ports. They even marked ParaView, an important port, to be removed just because it used libLAS as a dependency: this is not acceptable! --=20 Th.
