| At the risk of sounding like a broken record (did you actually READ what

I was very specific in my answer, yes, I read what you wrote, I never
talked about owncloud, I talked about the port.

The port's MYSQL option end up doing USE_PHP=mysql.
PHP 7.0 does not have a mysql module.
Before my commit, if you tried to build the port with the MYSQL option
enabled, and with PHP 7.0 as the default, you would end up not building
anyway:

Unknown extension mysql for PHP 70.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/www/owncloud

After my commit, if you try to build it with the MYSQL option enabled, it
will tell you:

cannot be installed: doesn't work with lang/php70 port (doesn't support PHP
70)

So, nothing changed from what you can do, you could not install it before,
you still cannot install it now.

Let me be very clear with what I wrote and what it says, it's all about the
*port* not the *software* I have no idea if the ~50 ports I marked broken
the other day can, or not, work with PHP 7.0.  I marked them all broken, in
one go, because they were taking time trying to build where they could not.

Now, if there is something to be done with one particular port, owncloud in
this case, please, open a problem report so that the maintainer can fix it.

Kind regards,
