I am submitting a patch to the port upgrading it to v0.9.9. I have attempted contacting the maintainer, but have not received a reply after one week. Aside from the version update, I have added MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes to the Makefile. The port would otherwise fail to compile on the first run of make and subsequent runs would finish just fine. (this was already an issue with 0.9.7). Note that exmpp v0.9.7 appears to have stopped working at least when used for imported xep-0227 files to ejabberd. The problem seem to be an incompatibility with versions of Erlang/OTP 15 and later, due to a change in the way erlang dynamic libraries are identified. v0.9.9 seem to have fixed that issue. Fix: Patch included

Looks good to me.
jpicalau: I can't upgrade this port as it is. 1) The MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE as already been added 2) More importantly, this port is not staged. 2A) As a consequence, the maintainer has been removed, it's not maintained by anyone anymore 2B) As a consequence, it is scheduled for removal If you want exmpp to be updated, you will need to provide an updated patch that not only updates the version to 0.9.9, but also correctly provides stage support (please test it properly, e.g. with poudriere, "make check-orphans", "make stage-qa") see: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-announce/2014-May/000080.html The former maintainer can also do this if he is still interested in maintaining the port (and perhaps unaware it's been taken from his care already)
