Description Benjamin Takacs 2025-01-02 09:45:22 UTC

While I understand that we sometimes need versioned port origins, I expect the unversioned one to be the latest version (or a meta port depending on it), except if there are reasons to do otherwise like default versions or that version got into the tree to test and improve freebsd support.

So I can't understand why the unversioned port origin should be deprecated while we have supported versioned port origins of that project in tree. Especially if it is the only one, it could easily get moved to be the unversioned port origin.

So I request that you revert the deprecation of security/mbedtls and just move security/mbedtls3 into its place or if you expect that more versioned origins will be needed in the future, convert security/mbedtls into a meta port depending on security/mbedtls3.

Best regards
Benjamin

    security/mbedtls: Move to security/mbedtls2

    The port has expired but isn't removed yet because there are still too
    many consumers.  Rename it because the name "security/mbedtls" makes it
    look like it's the default version.
