Thanks, this is probably what I was looking for (a way to get a copy of the existing work if ports deletes it). Forgive my lack of experience here-- does this imply that when something is "deleted" from ports-- it is like an edit in git or Wikipedia, where the old version still (typically) exists in the tree somewhere? Because if a year from now I can still get the old ports code from the older tree, that's good enough for me. I also got the downloadable Linux ELF pre-compiled version from pypy.org to run in Linuxulator-- this has me covered for most of the stuff I do with Python, though for GUI stuff it doesn't seem to like the libc in /compat or the one I copied (a point for another list, but for me this solves most of my issue.) Same GUI stuff runs on the native PyPy. I'm hoping the PyPy devs find a way to make this work, I intend to ask them if they can make a FreeBSD download again. They did one for FreeBSD64 a long time ago. Thanks all. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
