There is only one ports collection. It is independent of any version of
FreeBSD.

Azureus 2.2.0.0 has a very serious memory leak on jdk-1.4.2, the leak is
reported as being fixed on jdk-1.5 . However, we do not yet have a
native port of jdk-1.5 if the linux jdk is used it would require linux
swt libraries, as the native ones compiled by the Eclipse port will not
work with the linux jdk. There are also a lot of other bug reports
coming in for 2.2.0.0 so I have not yet submitted a patch to perform the
update, I've decided to wait for the bugs to be corrected.

I'm currently hoping that the memory leak will be fixed on jdk-1.4.2 so
the port can be updated. If you want to see the memory leak in action
you can apply the patch found here:
