devel/icu4 update -- chase LIB_DEPENDS

devel/icu4 was recently updated and now installs shlibs with ABI version 44. Unfortunately this hasn't been propagated to those ports with a LIB_DEPENDS on devel/icu4 (all three of them): worm:/usr/ports:% grep -r 'icu.*\.43:' . ./databases/postgresql90-server/Makefile:LIB_DEPENDS+= icudata.43:$

sysytils/bacula-server link failures WITH_POSTGRESQL

Dear port maintainer, Since version 5.0.2 was committed over the weekend, if you select WITH_POSTGRESQL in the config dialogue for sysutils/bacula-server, it fails to link: Linking bacula-dir ... /usr/ports/sysutils/bacula-server/work/bacula-5.0.2/libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link /usr/bin/

portmaster -s option -- portmaster.rc equivalent?

Hi, Doug, Is there a way to use portmaster.rc to globally switch on the effect of the '-s' option in portmaster? My best guess was to use: CLEAN_STALE=sopt but unfortunately that seems to stop portmaster doing anything for a typical update-anything-that-needs-it run: lucid-nonsense:/usr/src:%
