The PR has not received much attention since then, and the maintainer hasn't replied to my emails either. The Makefile of the port seems somewhat outdated as well and could use some improvements. If the port needs a new maintainer I would volunteer, even though I have no previous experience. At the very least I could certainly help putting it into shape and testing it. Best wishes, Fernando [1] https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207425
