>Description:
The ports.cgi script uses the CVS version of ports/INDEX{,-5}
to extract information about which ports and which ports
versions existed for a particular FreeBSD release. Now that
INDEX is no longer kept in CVS this won't work for 4.11, and
later releases.
The solution is probably to make some kind of achieve of INDEX
files for old releases, like what's done for manual pages used
by man.cgi, and drop using the CVS version of INDEX entirely
in ports.cgi.
