New Revision: 521960
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/521960

Log:
  deprecate sane-frontends
  
  This code is not maintained anymore by upstream (last release: 14 years
  ago as per https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontends/-/releases), has no
  maintainer here (anymore), no consumers and is prone to breakage (last
  fixed in ports r517748). As per discussion with tobik@, deprecate this;
  the expiration date gives ample warning to interested users but avoids
  carrying this port into the next quarterly.
