Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-gnome mailing = list <gnome@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 240954: converters/libiconv: update to 1.16 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D240954 --- Description --- libiconv-1.16 has been released since April. 26, 2019. Our libiconv port has Japanese specific patch which seems discontinued updating for a long time. It's time to obsolete the discontinued patch and update libiconv. The `libiconv-1.16.patch` updates converters/libiconv port. I have fixed portlint warnings, too. For people who really want to use the Japanese specific patch, I suggest to move libiconv 1.14 to japanese/libiconv114 and switch to use japanese/libiconv114 via `portmaster -o japanese/libiconv114 converters/libiconv` and `pkg set -o converters/libiconv:japanese/libiconv114`. The `libiconv114.patch` creates japanese/libiconv114 port. Please apply two patches and announce following message in UPDATING text. ``` AFFECTS: users of converters/libiconv with PATCHES option Japanese specific patch has been obsoleted. Because it seems discontinued updating for a long time. Users who really want to use the patch, Please switch to use japanese/libiconv114 port. portmaster -o japanese/libiconv114 converters/libiconv pkg set -o converters/libiconv:japanese/libiconv114 ```
