All,
I assume I got included as maintainer of the softhsm port which
uses botan.
This patch renames the installed library (to include version) and thus
could be compatible with botan 1.8.11 if committed with a different port
name; but I wonder if 1.8 is really useful to keep around.
Dependencies are three: monotone, which I do maintain, and there is a
patch currently in test regarding that; what about the other two
dependencies? I added the two maintainers in Cc.
I have checked with the original developers and as far as they know,
there is no special dependency on version 1.8.11, any (modern)
version will do. Therefore, there is no reason to keep version
1.8.11 around, at least, for me.
Thanks for asking!
