Ports with version numbers going backwards: databases/postgresql-tcltk

** The following ports have a version number that sorts before a previous one **

 For many package tools to work correctly, it is of utmost importance that
 version numbers of a port form a monotonic increasing sequence over time.
 Refer to the FreeBSD Porter's Handbook, 'Package Naming Conventions' for
 more information. Tools that won't work include pkg_version, portupgrade
 and portaudit. A common error is an accidental deletion of PORTEPOCH.

 Please fix any errors as soon as possible.

   | Split the postgresql ports into a server and a client part.
   | 
   | The tcltk interface has been removed from the main distribution, so
   | fixate the version number to the latest released version, 7.4.6.

   | Split the postgresql ports into a server and a client part. The
   | following knobs can be used by ports depending on PostgreSQL:
   | 
   | # USE_PGSQL     - Add PostgreSQL client dependency.
   | #                 If no version is given (by the maintainer via the port or
   | #                 by the user via defined variable), try to find the
   | #                 currently installed version.  Fall back to default if
   | #                 necessary (PostgreSQL-7.4 = 74).
   | # DEFAULT_PGSQL_VER
   | #               - PostgreSQL default version. Can be overridden within a port.
   | #                 Default: 74.
   | # WANT_PGSQL_VER
   | #               - Maintainer can set an arbitrary version of PostgreSQL by
   | #                 using it.
   | # BROKEN_WITH_PGSQL
   | #               - This variable can be defined if the ports doesn't support
   | #                 one or more versions of PostgreSQL.
   | 
   | Note that a periodic script is installed that will, by default, vacuum
   | all databases nightly. You may want to tweak the settings, see the
   | script at ${LOCALBASE}/etc/periodic/daily/502.pgsql
   | 
   | To run PostgreSQL at boot time, set postgresql_enable=yes in /etc/rc.conf.
