Not really. This wont trouble me. For the apps I need, I'll search ports
first. If there is I'll install from port tree; if it's not up to date,
I'll try to figure out update or install from source. In fact I
submitted update for bogofilter and gnupg2. 

My question is more about port policy. Anyway it does not matter that
much.
