As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness. Often, this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or the cessation of development on the existing port. In some cases, ports are marked for removal because they fail to build and install correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation. The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled for removal, are listed below. If no one has stepped forward before that time to propose a way to fix the problems (such as via a PR), the ports will be deleted. portname: chinese/unrar description: Extract, view & test RAR archives maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: constantly behind master and no maintainer expiration date: 2011-02-20 build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/amd64-errorlogs/e.7.20110119082704/zh-unrar-4.00.b4,5.log (_Jan_20_07:19:11_UTC_2011) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=chinese&portname=unrar portname: devel/ace+tao description: The Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) with The ACE ORB (TAO) maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Outdated and does not compile on any supported version of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=devel&portname=ace%2Btao portname: dns/staticcharge description: A GTK client for the StaticCling dynamic DNS service maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: abandoned by author expiration date: 2011-01-24 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=dns&portname=staticcharge portname: graphics/libv3d description: V3D IO Library maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: unmaintained and failed to build for months expiration date: 2011-02-28 build errors: http://pointyhat.FreeBSD.org/errorlogs/amd64-errorlogs/e.9.20101120065700/libv3d-0.1.14_4.log.bz2 (_Nov__5_16:47:40_UTC_2010) overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=libv3d portname: graphics/ray++ description: A collection of C++ classes needed for ray tracing maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Does not compile on supported versions of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=ray%2B%2B portname: japanese/oleo description: A Spreadsheet Program + Japanese patches maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Does not compile on supported versions of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=japanese&portname=oleo portname: java/netbeans3 description: A full-featured integrated environment for Java maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: old, unmaintained expiration date: 2011-03-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=java&portname=netbeans3 portname: java/netbeans4 description: A full-featured integrated environment for Java maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: IGNORE deprecated because: old, unmaintained expiration date: 2011-03-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=java&portname=netbeans4 portname: java/netbeans5 description: A free and open-source IDE for Java maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: old, unmaintained expiration date: 2011-03-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=java&portname=netbeans5 portname: multimedia/jahshaka description: Video and film composing, editing and special fx system maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org status: BROKEN deprecated because: Does not compile on supported versions of FreeBSD expiration date: 2011-02-04 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=multimedia&portname=jahshaka portname: net/straw description: A GNOME 2 desktop weblog aggregator written in Python maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: abandoned upstream and does not work with python 2.6+ expiration date: 2011-03-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net&portname=straw portname: shells/bash3 description: The GNU Project's Bourne Again SHell maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Use shells/bash or shells/bash-static instead expiration date: 2011-01-21 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=shells&portname=bash3 portname: shells/bash3-static description: The GNU Project's Bourne Again SHell maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: Use shells/bash or shells/bash-static instead expiration date: 2011-01-21 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=shells&portname=bash3-static portname: x11/kde3-apireference description: API reference for KDE 3 maintainer: ports@FreeBSD.org deprecated because: outdated and obsolete expiration date: 2011-01-31 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=x11&portname=kde3-apireference
