Created attachment 155381 [details] svn diff to fix dns/firedns I see this port has been marked for deletion, due to source being unavailable. I have the source, and use the port. Why not host it along with all the other ports I already host. Following is a session that shows the source is available again: # make fetch ===> firedns-0.9.12 depends on file: /usr/local/sbin/pkg - found => firedns-0.9.12.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. => Attempting to fetch http://BSDforge.com/projects/source/dns/firedns/firedns-0.9.12.tar.bz2 firedns-0.9.12.tar.bz2 100% of 94 kB 352 MBps 00m00s ===> Fetching all distfiles required by firedns-0.9.12 for building # make extract ===> firedns-0.9.12 depends on file: /usr/local/sbin/pkg - found ===> Fetching all distfiles required by firedns-0.9.12 for building ===> Extracting for firedns-0.9.12 => SHA256 Checksum OK for firedns-0.9.12.tar.bz2. Given I'm hosting the source, why not add myself as MAINTAINER? Please find attached, the svn diff that fixes this port. Thanks! --Chris
A commit references this bug: Author: danfe Date: Mon Apr 13 07:24:53 UTC 2015 New revision: 383901 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/383901 Log: Unbreak by providing working mastersite; do not remove previous sites to give maintainer a chance to sort it out. PR: 199329 Submitted by: Chris Hutchinson Changes: head/dns/firedns/Makefile
Committed as ports r383901, thank you. Maintainership was not transfered at this time; let's give current maintainer a chance to show up. Also note that this port is related to `misc/firestring', which also was not fetchable (fixed by me in ports r383900). You might want to mirror that distfile as well. Ideally both ports should be maintained together.
