Ideally, yes. But in practice I doubt that every maintainer is subscribed to ports@ -- and reads it frequently. Hence, I always recommend to e-mail the maintainer, CC'ing ports@ if necessary/useful (such as in this case). Or to submit a PR, of course :-) > You can take my original post as public service for the users of hdf5. > I'll note that there are 2 bug reports about the breakage: > > [Bug 209242] math/matio broken by science/hd5 upgrade to 1.10 > [Bug 209244] math/scilab broken by science/hd5 upgrade to 1.10 The public service is of course appreciated, no doubts there. Has the maintainer of science/hdf5 been informed of these PRs? For example, is he on the CC list for any of those bugs? AvW -- A.J.
