About games/flightgear-aircrafts
Hi list, As you may know, games/flightgear-aircrafts is *HUGE*, way too big to be useable and buildable correctly, and, as a maintainer, a real pain to update. Today, if you just need one airplane from flightgear-aircrafts, you would have to download 350+ airplanes and more than 2 GB of data, which makes no sense at all. We have to get rid of that. I am thinking of two options : 1) providing only a subset of available airplanes (i.e. *not* every single airplane available on the FTP servers). This would be nice, but requires to set up a list of the best planes to include (top 30 best planes ?), and that list may not be the one every single user would have established. 2) removing the port and consider users have to install additional planes *manually*. After all, those airplanes are only addons ; limiting the ports to flightgear + flightgear-data, which already ship with several airplanes, does not seem crazy to me. A third option would have been to provide the full list of available airplanes but only select a few of them through OPTIONS, but I'd like to avoid going this way : this will not simplify the port at all, it will only make it harder to maintain as the OPTIONS list will be huge, and (maybe ?) pointless for the end-user. Flightgear users, I would go for option 2), but what do *you* think ?

Thanks, Jos Chrispijn Chris Rees: Unfortunately, although huge efforts were made by the ruby team it turned out that there were some edge cases that made the switch really difficult to some people, so it was decided to revert the change in defaults.

However, it's a critical port for many people, and there is no easy update or replacement (tex-live work is ongoing, I think). So, rather than updating the whole of teTeX, hrs@ has been adding new (or newer) latex packages as separate add-on ports, e.g. print/latex-nomencl or print/latex-chapterfolder. This way, user who need newer latex features, can easily get them, still within the ports framework. Others, who only need the core of latex, do not need to install those add-on ports, e.g. textproc/docproj-jadetex. Thanks for this clarification. In my opinion, games/flightgear-aircrafts can already been considered as an addon port : none of the aircrafts installed by this port is mandatory to have the game run correctly. The main problem I face is that several distfiles change regularly, and keeping a list of 350+ aircrafts distfiles up-to-date within a single port is a real pain. The other problem is being able to provide the distfiles for a longer time than the official mirrors do : it would require to set up an additional mirror to collect them all and it would require a lot of space to do so. So, if I understand correctly, your 4th suggestion would be to split this huge port up into single aircraft ones ? If yes, the same question remains : what should be the list of selected ports ? And if this list should be limited to, say, 30 ports, why not provide them in a single port (which would then be a lot easier to maintain) ? sorry, no idea. My point was just that sometimes it's easier to split a large port into a smaller core, and several add-on ports.

This would be nice, but requires to set up a list of the best planes to include (top 30 best planes ?), and that list may not be the one every single user would have established. 2) removing the port and consider users have to install additional planes *manually*. After all, those airplanes are only addons ; limiting the ports to flightgear + flightgear-data, which already ship with several airplanes, does not seem crazy to me. A third option would have been to provide the full list of available airplanes but only select a few of them through OPTIONS, but I'd like to avoid going this way : this will not simplify the port at all, it will only make it harder to maintain as the OPTIONS list will be huge, and (maybe ?) pointless for the end-user. Flightgear users, I would go for option 2), but what do *you* think ? #2 is reasonable, IMO. Other options, like breaking it up into multiple ports, would not make it easier to maintain and might be more difficult for users.

Other options, like breaking it up into multiple ports, would not make it easier to maintain and might be more difficult for users. Warren, I agree with you : it would make the port even more complex. From a maintainer port of view, we will still have to keep up-to-date with those 350+ zip files which regularly change upstream, but will now have to deal with sorting them and updating several different ports. From a user point of view, it would also be a pain : users would have to browse into each category ports to be able to get all the planes they need. I am not sure this is the right way to go :/ I would also vote for #2, or, if we can get a limited list of good airplanes, option #1. I will try to find if I can get a list of top planes on FLightGear website, but I have not seen such a page so far.
