Hold on.  This is the description, "prhistory shows PR from the FreeBSD GNATS
database corresponding to a port. Show a summary view of all PR related to a
port and request an individual PR by number."

That means this port is specific to the FreeBSD GNATS database which koobs
already said isn't available anymore.  I assumed you intended to use gnats4
generically (why?  it's horrible) but this doesn't look like it even has a
generic use.

And if you intend to do a bugzilla version (I don't even know if that's
feasible or desire), that should be a new port.

As I said before, people pretty much despise GNATS.  Saving this port is not
going to be popular.

Are you really going to set up a brand new GNATS database for personal use?
