pkg-descr must contain sentences, something that can be read. It must at
least be two lines long, so that it is descriptive enough.  The fact
that upstream is crappy does not mean you can put he same crap in the
ports tree.  It is your job as committer to make sure that ports conform
to our policies and requirements.  If upstream does not provide a better
decription, create one, basd on your knowledge of the software.
