Thanks, this is probably what I was looking for (a way to get a copy of the=
existing work if ports deletes it).
Forgive my lack of experience here-- does this imply that when something is=
"deleted" from ports-- it is like an edit in git or Wikipedia, where the o=
ld version still (typically) exists in the tree somewhere? Because if a yea=
r from now I can still get the old ports code from the older tree, that's g=
ood enough for me.
I also got the downloadable Linux ELF pre-compiled version from pypy.org to=
run in Linuxulator-- this has me covered for most of the stuff I do with P=
ython, though for GUI stuff it doesn't seem to like the libc in /compat or =
the one I copied (a point for another list, but for me this solves most of =
my issue.)
Same GUI stuff runs on the native PyPy. I'm hoping the PyPy devs find a way=
to make this work, I intend to ask them if they can make a FreeBSD downloa=
d again. They did one for FreeBSD64 a long time ago.
Thanks all.
