I was just wondering if there was something drastically broke in the

I uninstalled on a test box and I can't even get it back in its "old"
version/state ... is there a reason that the older version wasn't left
available? Seem that older is better than nothing (unless of course
drastically broken/flawed).
Just wondering.

No, the snort package no longer had an active maintainer, was out of
date, broken and a source of much angst in the support forum. The
policy of the pfSense developers has been to remove un-maintained,
broken packages. Since there are a lot of people who want to see this
package fixed and maintained, it has been suggested that a bounty be put
together to get the snort package fixed and updated. Something similar
happened with the squid package, very successfully.
