https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D245402 Bug ID: 245402 Summary: devel/tigcc: Change BROKEN/DEPRECATED reason Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: cyberbotx@cyberbotx.com So, I noticed that devel/tigcc was marked DEPRECATED because it has been ma= rked BROKEN for more than 6 months, due to its distfiles being unfetchable. In attempting to resolve this, I found that the snapshot of gcc 4.1 that ti= gcc requires (20060728) is not available on the GCC mirrors. Despite trying to change the port to use the last 4.1 snapshot (20080630), it will not patch, most likely because of hard references to the old snapshot. As a result, because of how old the software is and because I don't know if anyone actually uses tigcc under FreeBSD (I don't, I was just trying to kee= p it maintained just in case), I'd like to change the reason for it being BROKEN= and DEPRECATED to say that it is unbuildable on modern systems, or something al= ong those lines. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
