Hello Eric, Most of ports I maintain are spoted by portscout but I also rely on gh notifications and mailing subscriptions to get all ports covered. But yes, I believe that some gh ports need portscout config. I saw in your latest commits that you did portscout adjustments. For sure that I will need to do the same. It's on my TODO list now :) Cheers, Eric Turgeon <ericbsd@freebsd.org> escreveu (quarta, 17/06/2026 à(s) 23:01): > I was not sure how to convert it.
