My opinion is still that the original diff above is the correct one. While I understand the reaction from other people on the list that it would be troublesome to make portroach blind to "newer" releases, I am still convinced that the 2.x branch is not relevant to this port at all. This means we are currently doing the opposite of making portroach miss new releases: we are making it harder for people to spot real unmaintained code which could be considered just as bad. If you don't trust my personal judgement on this, maby looking at other projects having a separate package for the 2.x branch can help sway your opinion: FreeBSD: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=security&portname=softhsm2 Debian: https://packages.debian.org/sid/softhsm2 At the end of the day I hope my maintainer status would make you trust my judgement. This port is my responsibility after all. -- Patrik Lundin
