Description Koichiro Iwao freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-02-24 15:04:55 UTC 
Consider deprecating or removing this port from ports tree.
pkg_libchk cannot detect missing libraries anymore.

The same command in ports-mgmt/bsdadminscripts2 works well.
Comment 1 Tobias Kortkamp freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-02-24 15:39:26 UTC 
The port has no maintainer, so you could just do that.
Comment 2 Koichiro Iwao freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-02-24 16:25:03 UTC 
Thanks, I'm not sure if bsdadminscripts2 is a 100% drop-in replacement of bsdadminscripts because I only use pkg_libchk command. I would like to hear the opinion of everybody. Is ports-mgmt/bsdadminscripts is still required?
Comment 3 Koichiro Iwao freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-02-24 16:26:59 UTC 
Anyway, I will deprecate the port in a few days. Someone who needs this port should let me know after the deprecation.

  instead. It is redeveloped new one written by the same author.
