Yes, this is what I supposed, I'm new to FreeBSD port system, the PR 292351 <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=292351> explain all.
The updated port `java/netbeans` is out (NetBeans 28 2026-02-06), what was done is: - Removed all *.bat, *.cmd, *.exe, *.dll, *.dylib files in the NetBeans directory tree. - Removed `netbeans/ide/bin/nativeexecution/*64*` - Removed `netbeans/ide/bin/nativeexecution/*-x86*` - Removed `netbeans/ide/modules/lib/*` - Removed `netbeans/java/maven/lib/jansi-native*` - Removed `netbeans/platform/modules/lib/*` - Removed `netbeans/profiler/lib/deployed*` I'm C/C++/Javascript developer, well, to be precise in the last about 10 years JavaScript only. If anyone in the FreeBSD community has any problems, they will contact me, as I am the maintainer.
