Hello, after updating my ports tree, I've found out that math/open-axiom has been deleted! After math/fricas unusable with sbcl-1.3.x for many months and now gone too, I'm left with NO alternatives for that kind of software here. Fortunately, I still have a working package of open-axiom on my machine, running with SBCL 1.3.1 right now: $ pkg version -v | grep open-axiom open-axiom-1.4.2_3 ? orphaned: math/open-axiom $ uname -a FreeBSD phenom.fritz.box 10.3-STABLE FreeBSD 10.3-STABLE #0 r303311: Mon Jul 25 20:42:34 CEST 2016 root@phenom.fritz.box:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 $ open-axiom OpenAxiom: The Open Scientific Computation Platform Version: OpenAxiom 1.4.2 Built on Friday June 19, 2015 at 22:28:27 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Issue )copyright to view copyright notices.

More information about SBCL is available at <http://www.sbcl.org/>. SBCL is free software, provided as is, with absolutely no warranty. It is mostly in the public domain; some portions are provided under BSD-style licenses. See the CREDITS and COPYING files in the distribution for more information. * (sb-ext:exit) Do you recommend to switch to Debian GNU/Linux, where those packages are still actively maintained, or is there a chance in hell to see those ports reappear in the near future on FreeBSD? Thanks, -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
