[-- Attachment #1 --] (...) And I forgot to say: As others committers said too, this kind of change could (or should) be made when a new release is up. Until then you should keep port as is. Your latest commit 8c163b9c <https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/ports/commit/?id=8c163b9cffe8169ae2f1512ccbaef8c07a50dd3e>; ("x11/mate-session-manager: switch to GitHub release asset"): - shows that you don't use USE_GITHUB=nodefault: OK - that you bumped portrevision without build changes (same distfile and checksum): NOT OK Even you did changed MASTER_SITES for any other reason, you don't have do bump it. Bumping a port, means that it will be rebuild by everyone. Short version is to leave ports untouched until a new release is out. :) Thanks, Nuno Teixeira <eduardo@freebsd.org> escreveu (quarta, 17/06/2026 à(s) 23:23): > Hello Eric, > > Most of ports I maintain are spoted by portscout but I also rely on gh > notifications and mailing subscriptions to get all ports covered. > But yes, I believe that some gh ports need portscout config. > > I saw in your latest commits that you did portscout adjustments.
