The old diablo JDK ports were like this. I can see the reason for the automated ports system marking this a deprecated, since it can't tell the difference between a truely missing distfile vs. one that requires manual intervention. Is there something that can "reset" the deprecation countdown timer is cases like this? ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

The port is still available from the same place it's been for at least the last year or so (when I first installed it). It is still publically available. You just have to manually download it (so that you can accept the license for it). As far as I can tell nothing regarding its public availability has changed.

Are you interested in maintaining the port? I'd be willing to. I don't think anything for it has changed. The distfile is still available at the same location.

I think it's marked DEPRECATED in r317244 (bapt@) a month ago and then removed. Are you interested in maintaining the port? Cheers, - -- Xin LI https://www.delphij.net/ FreeBSD - The Power to Serve!

Maybe it was just unmaintained? You could submit a patch to make it interactive and display a message about manually fetching the distfile. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Why was the ventrilo-server port removed?
I just noticed that the port for audio/ventrilo-server has been removed. The 'depricated because' reason says "No more public distfiles", yet as far as I can tell the distfile for the freebsd version is still available from www.ventrilo.com. It requires a manual download as you have to accept the license agreement, but I don't think that has changed from when I first downloaded it. So, anyone know if there some other reason for its removal?
