As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness. Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation. The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below. If no one has stepped forward before that time to propose a way to fix the problems (such as via a PR), the ports will be deleted. portname: devel/p5-P4-Client description: P4::Client - Perl extension for the Perforce API maintainer: tobez@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: has been broken for 11 months expiration date: 2010-01-08 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=p5-P4-Client portname: editors/koffice-kde4-l10n-fy description: Frisian messages and documentation for KOffice2 maintainer: kde@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: expiration date: 2010-08-07 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=editors&portname=koffice-kde4-l10n-fy portname: editors/koffice-kde4-l10n-hne description: Chhattisgarhi messages and documentation for KOffice2 maintainer: kde@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: expiration date: 2010-08-07 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=editors&portname=koffice-kde4-l10n-hne portname: editors/koffice-kde4-l10n-wa description: Walloon Bokmaal messages and documentation for KOffice2 maintainer: kde@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: expiration date: 2010-08-07 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=editors&portname=koffice-kde4-l10n-wa portname: graphics/lphoto description: A complete desktop solution for digital photo management maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: broken expiration date: 2010-03-30 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=lphoto portname: graphics/xaralx description: Top-tier vector/general purpose graphics program (recommended version) maintainer: vd@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: Does not compile with png-1.4 and latest version is from Aug 2006 expiration date: 2010-06-14 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=xaralx portname: graphics/xaralx-devel description: Top-tier vector/general purpose graphics program (development version) maintainer: vd@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: Does not compile with png-1.4 and latest version is from Aug 2006 expiration date: 2010-06-14 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=xaralx-devel portname: japanese/samba3 description: Japanese Samba maintainer: kuriyama@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Unsupported by the upstream.
