I don't know about codelite, but vscode is in my local package list and
builds just fine in poudriere, there isn't any issue maintaining the
port.

The reason there is no package is, as far as I know, building electron
was causing issues on the package builders (getting stuck and running
into timeouts), so it's blacklisted from package builds. I don't see
these issues here locally, although it is of course a massive build.

I opened a PR about this issue some time ago:

Cheers, Felix
