I really don't understand why these fixes are not provided anymore.
Then do something about it and start contributing too. May be you will
see how painful this is to do when you will actually do something like
that and then have big mouth clueless guys like you acting like you do
now complaining about your freely given time to the project and
thankless users like you.
If I want a fix or later version of a package for stable, I just take
the current port from CVS, and build for stable v4.3, here is a small
list of those successfully built ports.
bzip2-1.0.5
clamav-0.93
firefox-i18n-en-GB-2.0.0.14
gnupg-1.4.9
mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.14
nmap-4.60
pgadmin3-1.8.2
postgresql-client-8.3.1
postgresql-server-8.3.1
qemu-0.9.1
kqemu-1.3.0pre11p2
Not all will build, many will.
Quite agree don't complain either contribute or do it yourself.
They give you their time and you have the guts to complain and asked
them to do more then they already do freely and on their own time!? No
wonder that they do less and less in some special cases like this.
Keep complaining and may be one day it will simply not be available at
all anymore. Then what will you do... Apologies then?
i don't want to go back to Debian... ;)
No one stop you by the way and I am sure you will not be miss either
with your ungrateful attitude.
With all due respect, you should think before you write this one, really.
It is given free out of goodwill to you and you think you deserved more?
