While we do "maintain" some software in tree it's mostly because upstream is no longer around/active but we don't import ports that needs support from the get-go because that's not sustainable. Please back this out We also have helpers for both pkgconfig and cairo, please use helpers whenever possible https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/book/#uses-pkgconfig https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/book/#gnome-components https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/Mk/Uses/gnome.mk Best regards, Daniel
