OK to hook up 29.
I agree with dropping 26 but it's missing the upgrade path.
lang/erlang/27 needs @pkgpath markers in 27's pkg/PLIST-*
(@pkgpath lang/erlang/26,-main and ,-wx).
rebar3 needs a quirks $stem_extensions entry from erl26-rebar3 to
erl27-rebar3 and @pkgpath devel/rebar3,erlang26 for rebar3,erlang27 (can
be done unconditionally for now, but if an erlang28 flavour is added to
rebar3 then the @pkgpath will need to only be in the PLIST for ,erlamg27
- this can be done in a PFRAG or via a variable that expands to @comment
or nothing).
And 27 in -current will need to keep REVISION above 7.9-stable (as will
rebar3 if there are any updates in -stable: unlikely I guess, but worth
a comment just in case).
