Why don't you have a look at /usr/ports/mail/postfix/Makefile yourself?
(cvsweb works for that, too.)
The answer is no.

Because Apache changed the licence for the code at some point, later 1.3
versions cannot be merged ito base.
Guess this could have been found in the mailinglist archives.

questions about OpenBSD 4.7

2010-03-16 Thread Andreas Gerdd
Hello.

-Any chance to have a postfix package with
both mysql&sasl2 flavor together in upcoming 4.7 packages?

-Why is the stock Apache not getting a version update?
It is dozens times older than the current 1.3.42 one.
I know that its a modified-by-openbsd one with bugfixes, and so.
But such a huge version difference makes me think,
there might be at least some performance, stability improvements.

Thanks in advance for answers.
