That said, I think that un-deprecating these ports just because someone
can find a distfile somewhere is the wrong approach. bapt has been very
careful to only deprecate ports that are on the absolute bottom of the
pile. They are unmaintained, and unfetchable.

Baptiste,
I generally agree with your approach, and as Doug pointed out, it has
worked out fine. Those ports that people had interest in triggered, for

Baptiste you may want to look at ports/154596 to close it.
In fact this is an interesting plugin which is superseded by
