--- Comment #7 from Sascha Biberhofer <ports at skyforge.at> ---
I completely missed this bug, sorry for chiming in this late. 

As far as the git error is concerned: This is indeed a red herring and can
safely be ignored. It's also tracked by upstream in [1] and should be fixed in
recent releases.

As far as listening on port 80 is concerned: I think that if you want synapse
to listen on ports <1024 then you need to run it as root. The general
recommendation is not to do this at all and instead use a reverse proxy to
handle this. By default, synapse shouldn't use port 80 unless you've enabled
the acme listener, which isn't supported by the port as we don't have the
necessary python packages in ports for this. 

It might be better not to copy the sample config from the repo, but instead
generate the configuration locally, which should avoid this problem. In any
case, you may need to edit the configuration accordingly.

Is there's any action we should take for our port/package? 

Cheers,
Sascha
