Created attachment 218274 [details] Patch to update devel/appstream-glib - Update to 0.7.18 - Adjust dependencies
Have you tested dependant port ? in particular the fact lib/libappstream-builder.so disappear isn't breaking anything ?
(In reply to Baptiste Daroussin from comment #1) I don't know, if it breaks something. I just noticed it used by some GNOME ports in meson-post-install.py script (through appstream-util utility) in order to valid AppStream metadata file. By default 'builder' option is enabled [1], and in Makefile is not disabled, so perhaps something is missing.

This blocks the update of mail/geary to modern versions (bug 238373) which require 0.7.10 at least. re: the builder library — https://github.com/hughsie/appstream-glib/pull/287 it is no longer installed because "Nothing uses it, and it's not API or ABI stable."
Finally the update has landed!! https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/commit/d8019bb10091e518d00a9458c999b93540e062d4
