>Description:
Greetings,

I've seen that the recent net/unison update removes the last 2.32 version from
the ports tree. This should have been noted in ports/UPDATING due to critical
wire protocol incompatibilities between unison versions.

However, there aren't unison 2.40 packages for Ubuntu 10.10, or openSUSE 11.3,
these are stuck with unison 2.32.

Please provide a unison 2.32 package (and request a repocopy), possibly
as net/unison232 and a corresponding ports/UPDATING entry so that users are
warned to switch to that package unless all their peer sites have unison 2.40
available.

Thank you.
