--- Comment #6 from Erik Jensen <erik@tenku.dk> ---
Comment #1, comment #5 - thank you very much for your helpful replies, Chri=
s!
I have changed the title of the port.

Do you prefer to keep the port in the =E2=80=9Cdevel=E2=80=9D category? I p=
ersonally think it=20
would fit a bit better in the =E2=80=9Cscience=E2=80=9D category, but my op=
inions in this
regard=20
are neither super strong nor pulling on much more than a few months of
experience=20
with FreeBSD ports.
I can also see a couple of arguments against naming the port the (in my
opinion,
very poorly chosen) name of the software =E2=80=9Croot=E2=80=9D, but this i=
s what the original=20
authors have decided upon, so I initially chose this name for the port.=20
The official GitHub project has this name for the code repository as well.=
=20
Do you, anyway, think a port name such as =E2=80=9Ccernroot=E2=80=9D would =
be better, so as not=20
to confuse the port for a sysadmin account and similar?

I think I have managed to prepare the port. I have been running a testport
on my specifications in a poudriere jail, but compiling gcc11 (a prerequisi=
te=20
for some of the python dependencies, I believe; ROOT itself is compiled wit=
h=20
llvm/clang) on my current limited capacity system hit the default timeout o=
f 24=20
hours!
I see in the documentation that there are several ways to get around this.

Anyway, in not too long I=E2=80=99m hoping to be able to upload the port he=
re.=20

Thanks again
