Simple removal of a font is not generally considered significant enough 
for a notice in /usr/ports/UPDATING.  It is documented in 
/usr/ports/MOVED like any routine port removals or name changes:

% grep gentium-basic MOVED
x11-fonts/google-fonts||2025-12-04|Has expired: Depends on expired 
x11-fonts/gentium-basic
x11-fonts/gentium-basic||2025-12-04|Has expired: Superceeded by 
Gentium-7.000 https://software.sil.org/gentium/download/
