I'm a bit confused as to the removal of phantomjs. I've read the author's
statement of the halt in development in March, 2018, but there was no
deprecation announced and he did clean up the damaged master repo and
restore the 2.1 development branch. He did not in any way indicate that it
should not be used and it is still being used fairly widely. After a bit of
a break, he has continued to make commits, the most recent in July. He
seems unaware that FreeBSD has deleted the port as he still lists its
availability.
