This port currently conflicts with security/suricata, but I have a PR I just sent in to update suricata to not use it's built in version of this library (along with a general update to that port). I'm intentionally not marking the two as in conflict as it will hopefully just be reverted once the maintainer responds to my PR. -- WXS _______________________________________________ cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "cvs-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
