+ Bash has been updated to version 5.2. In previous versions, the default port
+ option-set used to link against libreadline from ports. However, the current
+ version of devel/readline is too old for bash 5.2.
+
+ For now, the default option has been switched to use the bundled version of
+ libreadline and the other option is marked broken. Once devel/readline is
+ updated this can be reverted.
+
+ If you're updating bash from source and you've previously explicitly set to
+ use use PORTS_READLINE, you'll have to disable the PORTS_READLINE option
+ before updating:
+
+ # cd /usr/ports/shells/bash
+ # make config
+
+ or flush it entirely:
+
+ # cd /usr/ports/shells/bash
+ # make rmconfig
+
