Hi,
As described at http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/history.html
certain releases of Exiftool are designated as 'production releases' and
others as 'development releases'.
There are two ports in the ports tree for Exiftool,
graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool, which tracks production releases, and
graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool-devel, which tracks development releases.
Since 9.03 is a development release (latest production release is 9.01)
this update should be made to graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool-devel instead of
graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool.
For that reason, I do not approve this update.
I will be submitting an update to graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool to update it
to 9.01 shortly.
Thanks,
Tod McQuillin
