Hello Mikael,
First of all, I would like to thank you for your work on Signal Desktop,
even though I know that you have dropped the maintainership. I really
appreciate it!
I see that there is now a version 7.5 in the ports tree from you, but
according to Freshports there is no binary package for
FreeBSD:13:quarterly or FreeBSD:13:latest. Do you know if there is any
problem with the Signal build?
I'm running FreeBSD 13.2 with quarterly packages on my desktop, where
the last Signal release was 6.42, which no longer works. I'd like to
update the system and packages, but I'm not sure whether to go for a
source build if there is some problem with the Signal build that causes
the package to not be created.
The problem is that devel/electron29 is blacklisted on the build server.
See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278049
signal-desktop-7.5.0_1 builds/runs fine here on 14.0/amd64. Note that the
build of electron29 can take rather long even on fast machines.
Also thanks to mikael for the update to 7.5.
It is crazy that something builds for days even on recent HW. But thank
you anyway. I'm just trying to build it in poudriere.
Kind regards
Miroslav Lachman
