https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D244490 --- Comment #5 from Chris Hutchinson <portmaster@bsdforge.com> --- You raise some good points, all of which I too considered before embarking on this. After all it would be a lot less work for me to just use the 07x version on guithub. ;) But like I said; I prefer the python version, and given that the author isn't using the 06x version numbers in any way. I think all will be well. As to (potential) confusion; I should probably add a note in the README && other assorted documentation indicating that the 06x version(s) are a diversion from the authors tree. I also thought it be useful to create a font-manager-devel, or font-manager-vala on the ports(7) tree. That tracks the 07x+ version(s). As to pygtk2 && gnome-doc-utils; I know. I took a chance, and *surprisingly* it all still worked with py3x. But I wanted to address gnome@ to see what, if any direction they were planning considering py27 has already been EOLd, and the portsmgr indicates it removel is on the horizon. Gnome themselves still appear to be developing them. So either *they* update, or I pull only what's absolutely required, and incorporate it into the port source. The gnome-doc-utils is only needed for the build; to create the docs. So I may well be able to simply generate the docs, and incorporate them in their built form. Anyway. As you've already stated; I've still got some work yet to do on all this. So I'll get back to it. :) Thanks for your input! --Chris --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
