Since the time that the RELEASE_4_EOL tag was applied to the Ports Collection, much of the legacy support for 4.X has been removed from individual ports (e.g., special-case code for old header layouts, marking ports BROKEN, and removing the checks for the antique perl in base). At this point anyone still using 4.X should have already frozen their ports tree at that tag.
My next checkin to bsd.port.mk will remove the remaining vestiges of 4.X support so that we can start to try to simplify the code there. If you are (for whatever reason) still running 4.X, you will _not_ want to track this change. Again, anyone still on 4.X should have stayed with the RELEASE_4_EOL tag and hand-merged any other changes that they absolutely have to have. As stated for the last year or so, 4.X served us well but it became impossible for our team to support 4 branches of the src base in the ports. Here's to the continued adoption and success of 6.2, and the great strides in performance being made in 7.0. mcl _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
