Olivier Duchateau worked on getting Node.js ports into tree, which would definitely fix deskutils/ladon. A link to his status report: https://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-2015-07-2015-09.html#Node.js-Modules I've already contacted him, but he mentioned, that there is only a very slow progress in getting his work into the portstree. But there is already a list of over 100 ports prepared, including all ports we need for ladon. Greetings, Torsten
