Ports with version numbers going backwards:

** 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.
