Or introduce it as "openvpn24"?
I've updated the port to 2.3.14 last night (there was a glitch that didn't affect OpenVPN but cost my time), and have just committed the FreeBSD Bugzilla's #214930. Assuming we trust the future OpenVPN 2.4.0 enough, the canonical way for me will be to copy openvpn 2.3.14 to a new port named openvpn23, mark it deprecated with an expiration half a year from then or 2017-06-30 so it doesn't make the 2017Q3 "quarterly" stable branch, and update the plain port from 2.3.14 to 2.4.0. All other concerns as we see fit. > "operating system wise", 2.4.0 should be as good on FreeBSD as 2.3.14 > (because all the platform fixes went into both branches), but there > might be hidden bugs lurking in the "non-client, non-platform" bits > that are new in 2.4 Sure, but that needs testing. I wonder if we temporarily need -rc ports on top of the existing -devel. Expect - due to the pre-XMas madness - that I need a few days to reply though. Anything important with the OpenVPN-related FreeBSD ports, Cc: me directly.
