Hi Chris

Firstly, if this port still works for you, then my apologies, and I'll
obviously revert it, surely that goes without saying.

Did you see https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=277665 ?

It's been open for ~ 3 months, and bugzilla informs the maintainer
automatically, using the title & the maintainer email address, to
my knowledge.

The port is broken per message on at least 15-CURRENT and a vanilla
14.0-RELEASE amd64 for me.

Anyway I will revert it shortly, please let me know what platform
you're using it on successfully and maybe we can find a fix together.

A+
Dave
