https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=259283 Tomasz "CeDeROM" CEDRO <tomek@cedro.info> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |tomek@cedro.info --- Comment #2 from Tomasz "CeDeROM" CEDRO <tomek@cedro.info> --- I have encountered similar problems recently when porting tools for NuttX RTOS development on FreeBSD, specifically genromfs and kconfig-frontends. It turned out that kconfig-frontends maintenance is abandoned, folks used simple copy of the package, but there was no central upstream repository. (what is more there were two known diverged sources on Debian using version 4.11 and Espressif GH using version 4.6). People from GNU / Linux world does not see that as problem. GitHub is really easy to maintain and process patches as HPS mentioned, also provides reliable packages hosting, but it also may create a diverged fork when not merged back to the upsteam :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
