Thank you for the report Peter Assign committer of ports r502845 PORTEPOCH needs to be incremented as the version goes backward after this revision: # pkg version -t 2020.0.0.a1 20141224 # < Yeah, no way around this one :( Our choices are PORTEPOCH and 20200000.a1. I'm reluctant to bump PORTEPOCH if there's another way. Thoughts? PORTEPOCH bump later today. Yeah, I don't think forever mangling the version is a better solution. I hate them too, but I think this is the answer:) Sadly yes. A commit references this bug: Author: cy Date: Sat Jun 1 18:36:03 UTC 2019 New revision: 503249 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/503249 Log: Fix version going backward due to update to 2020.0.0.a1 (pointy hat to yours truly). The maintainer no longer wants to maintain ksh93 as his desire is to maintain a backlevel port of ksh93 in order to build and support a shared library for use by legacy applications, which is inconsistent with the direction of the att/ast team on github. I will maintain the port. PR: 237332 PR: 238266 Approved by: maintiner (saper@saper.info) Changes: head/shells/ksh93/Makefile (In reply to commit-hook from comment #7) Cy, Can you take over the shells/ksh93 port? Thanks (In reply to Marcin Cieślak from comment #8) (sorry got confused by this " Approved by: maintiner" line - thank you) Fixed and took the port a while ago. shells/ast-ksh is under your name. |
