Hi Karsten, Are you aware that this port was deleted in 2011 [1]? [1] https://www.freshports.org/editors/wily If the port is really to be restored, then by resurrecting (this can and should continue the history of the port at that time) ... Note: this is not a new port, but a revival. See https://www.freshports.org/editors/wily (In reply to Rainer Hurling from comment #1) Oops, my comment is a duplicate of yours, sorry. (In reply to Thierry Thomas from comment #3) No problem :D Hi both, Oh, my mistake. I did look first but never found the original. This port was put together from scratch. Looking at the original now, it seems that it expired because it depended on Xg. I am not entirely sure why it did, this port only requires Xlib and Xt. What I can do instead is submit a patch against the original to keep the history and remove dependence on Xg? I have not revived a port before and there doesn't seem to be a section for it in the porter's handbook. Thanks! There use to be a 're-add section' in https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/committers-guide/#ports which looks to have been removed (possibly no longer relevent with git) - MASTER_SITES should be http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wily/wily-0.13.42.tar.gz - according to NetBSD port it depends on fonts/Xg that was revived in "(2017-11-23) Package has been reborn" maybe best choice is revive x11-fonts/Xg too? Cheers (In reply to Nuno Teixeira from comment #7) (...) https://pkgsrc.se/editors/wily https://pkgsrc.se/fonts/Xg |
