Normally I would use portdowngrade[1] to get the port back, but it looks like it doesn't work with expired ports: root@kg-v2# pinfo xvattr Port: x11/xvattr Moved: Date: 2011-09-07 Reason: Has expired: No more public distfiles root@kg-v2# portdowngrade -s :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.fr.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs x11/xvattr portdowngrade 0.6 by Heiner Eichmann Please note, that nothing is changed in the ports tree unless it is explicitly permitted in step 6!
