Fwd: [ HEADS UP ] Ports unstable for the next 10 days

Hallo,

da ja vielleicht nicht jeder die englischen Listen liest, hier die Info.
Die nächsten 10 Tage kann es Probleme beim Update von Ports geben und man
soll besser warten bis alles Änderungen durch sind und die Probleme behoben
wurden.

vg,

Detlef

Hi,

As announced before, a few big commits, that touch some thousands ports
are being done: png, curl, x11, gnome, kde4. The target ETA is 6-7
April.
The first one was done, update of graphics/png (including a shared lib
version bump), with about 5000 ports affected.

We do _NOT_ recommend updating ports until this commits are all done,
and the problems are fixed, except if you want to help testing / fixing.

Before reporting failures, please take a look at ports@ list, and
http://qat.tecnik93.com/index.php?action=failed_buildports&sort=last_built
to find out if the problem hasn't already been reported or even fixed.
We also have two incremental builds on Pointy to catch the problems.

Thank you,

With hat: portmgr@
