lang/expect -- update coming

2014-02-21 Thread Pietro Cerutti
All,

I'm planning to commit an update to bring lang/expect up to the latest
5.45 version. At the same time, I'm going to kill lang/expect-devel,
which would otherwise be left lagging behind at 5.44.

The following ports use either expect or -devel (maintainers CC'd).

devel/pecl-expect
net-mgmt/rancid
net-mgmt/rancid-devel

This is a call to test those three with the new version of lang/expect,
which can be found both as a shar [1] or diff [2].

If nothing comes up, I'm planning to update expect and kill expect-devel
by the end of next week.

Thanks,

[1] http://people.freebsd.org/~gahr/expect-5.45.shar
[2] http://people.freebsd.org/~gahr/expect-5.45.diff

Turns out my regexp-foo sucked this time.. Here's a more complete list.
Thanks koobs@ for noticing.

i'm no longer maintaining the freenx/nxserver ports. they are so outdated at 
this point they should probably be killed off as well, but i have no idea who 
might still be using them.

While the MAINTAINER line references your email, you do, even if not for
version updates.

As maintainer, you have a couple of PR options up your sleeve:

- Reset maintainer, so someone else can pick them up
- Set EXPIRE with reason and an appropriate lead time to removal

The above can also serve to communicate to
users-come-would-be-maintainers that they might need attention and
provide the impetus to jump in and have a go :)
