[HEADSUP] new package status/statistics uploaded to portsmon.freebsd.org

[Mark Linimon]

I've been generating these locally but not uploading them.  Now, they
are up-to-date.  If you are interested in what the state of the packages
is on the various architectures, these pages will be of interest.

Of particular interest to ports committers is the new page
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/checkpackages.html.  This shows the
status of the packages that go on disc1 and disc2 of the release CDs.
When you click on the table header for each buildenv, it will take
you to a page that shows the complete package status for that buildenv,
including whether packages are marked IGNORE or BROKEN, or simply have
errors.  For each package in the checkpackages page, you'll need to
search the most right-hand column of the status page to find out what
package is blocking it, if it's a dependency of something else.

The overall comparison amongst buildenvs is at the following:
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/chartsandgraphs/package_comparison.html.
That's a good "start here".  Everything else is shown on
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/chartsandgraphs/index.html.

Note that all this data is as of the last port building run (not
whichever one is currently in progress), so certain errors may already
have been fixed.  The information is all there -- but you may have to
do a little bit of detective work with e.g. the individual port pages
and the cvsweb links.  For instance, amd64-7, i386-7, and sparc64-6
have been unblocked by the most recent commits.  However, sparc64-7
is still blocked on x11/gnome2 via the build error in devel/pwlib,
which appears to have happened when the threading libraries were
switched.  (Anyone willing to help track that down?)
