Fork it on Github, for now. It can later be merged with freebsd/portmaster. -- p...@opsec.eu+49 171 3101372 4 years to go ! ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Walter already tried to reproduce some of the PRs and give some feedback, for example that an issue is not reproducibly at the current time. I think this will be true for most of the PRs. One already brings a patch with it. The first work will be most management of the PRs. I'm asking myself how to manage the code. Should i create a new GitHub repository?

I submitted a PR to take maintainer-ship for portmaster: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207075 Also i fix some minor glitches and add missing RUN_DEPENDS.

Sorry if my mail was misinterpretable: I do not insist that Torsten has to fix every single PR to become maintainer, far from it. And I neither use portmaster nor synth in my setups, I use poudriere and portupgrade, so I'm not really part of the debate. Clearly, the documentation of the process in the handbook can be improved, and if this involves some words on alternatives, its even better. > Providing a patch for one of > the bugs would probably be sufficient for demonstrating interest > and ability. Yes, I understand that. It was not my intention to put up undue hurdles. -- p...@opsec.eu+49 171 3101372 4 years to go ! ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
