Description Miroslav Lachman 2016-07-28 13:07:11 UTC

For example port lang/php55 has this in Makefile

DEPRECATED= EOL upstream since 10 Jul 2016

On installation by "pkg upgrade" it prints following message:

-----------
This port is deprecated; you may wish to reconsider installing it:

EOL\ upstream\ since\ 10\ Jul\ 2016.

It is scheduled to be removed on or after 2016-08-20.
-----------

All spaces are escaped by backslash.


Bapt thinks it is ports bug:

Log:
  Don't overquote the DEPRECATED message, it ended up looking silly.

  Something like:

  -----------
  This port is deprecated; you may wish to reconsider installing it:

  EOL\ upstream\ since\ 10\ Jul\ 2016.

  It is scheduled to be removed on or after 2016-08-20.
