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: archivers/bsdar description: BSD-licensed replacement of the ar utility maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: part of the base system expiration date: 2013-02-28 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=archivers&portname=bsdar portname: databases/py-MySQLdb-devel description: Access a MySQL database through Python maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: use databases/py-MySQLdb instead expiration date: 2012-05-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=py-MySQLdb-devel portname: devel/libgetline description: A small, portable, and easy to use command line library maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Upstream disapear and distfile is no more available expiration date: 2013-02-28 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=libgetline portname: games/antrix description: Free stable dedicated-server for World of Warcraft maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: no more public distfiles, abandoned upstream expiration date: 2012-06-01 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=games&portname=antrix portname: graphics/gmt description: The Generic Mapping Tools data processing and display software package maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Hasn't fetched since before 2006 expiration date: 2012-04-17 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=gmt portname: graphics/vrml2pov description: Convert VRML files to POVRay source maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: unfetchable expiration date: 2012-03-21 build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/powerpc-errorlogs/e.9.20120118054720/vrml2pov-0.7_1.log (_Dec_16_03:59:13_UTC_2011) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=vrml2pov portname: mail/dbmail20 description: An SQL database-based mail system (POP3 and IMAP) maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: No more supported upstream.
