Hello,
I have recently been building Code::Blocks 25 on GhostBSD and will be
building it on FreeBSD shortly and noticed that when I installed the
Ports/pkg version that the package currently doesn't have a maintainer
and is the older version 20.
If it is still the case that this application needs a maintainer I'd
like to offer my services to become the maintainer and work to update
from the old Code::Blocks 20 to the current 25 version.
Please let me know what I can do to help.
First steps would be to check out the Porter's Handbook [0] and begin
working on updating the port.
Once you get a working updated port, submit a PR [1] for the port update
and request to be the maintainer (while also adding yourself as the
maintainer in the Makefile).
Thanks for stepping up!
