The branch main has been updated by matthew: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/ports/commit/?id=9ed24575353e3e60326d55782fffac2ed90d0e85 commit 9ed24575353e3e60326d55782fffac2ed90d0e85 Author: Matthew Seaman <matthew@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2023-03-12 14:15:31 +0000 Commit: Matthew Seaman <matthew@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2023-03-12 14:15:31 +0000 textproc/sphinxsearch: return to the pool Upstream switched to a commercial license years ago, and so we cannot include more recent versions in the ports. Despite indications on the website that they would switch back to GPL, this hasn't happened in more than 5 years, so I guess it is never going to happen. From an opensource point of view, this software is essentially abandonware. However, given there is an actively developed upstream project, and that project does provide FreeBSD binaries, it doesn't feel right to deprecate the software entirely. --- textproc/sphinxsearch/Makefile | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/textproc/sphinxsearch/Makefile b/textproc/sphinxsearch/Makefile index b7c2967e09fb..60fbebefb778 100644 --- a/textproc/sphinxsearch/Makefile +++ b/textproc/sphinxsearch/Makefile @@ -11,7 +11,7 @@ MASTER_SITES= http://sphinxsearch.com/files/ \ DISTNAME= sphinx-${PORTVERSION}-release DISTFILES= ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX} -MAINTAINER= matthew@FreeBSD.org +MAINTAINER= ports@FreeBSD.org COMMENT= Sphinx Full-Text Search Engine WWW= https://sphinxsearch.com/
