% Log:
% 2011-11-06 devel/soup: Unmaintain, use devel/libsoup
% 2011-11-06 graphics/clutter-qt: upstream distfile and doesn't build, and %doesn't seem to be developed anymore
% 2011-11-06 graphics/p5-clutter: upstream distfile disappeard, and doesn't seem to be developed anymore
% 2011-11-06 graphics/librsvg: unmaintained and not used anymore
I just cannot get the commit message. librsvg -- not used by whom? Personally,
I used it in one of my older projects (~ 10 years old) which I don't plan
to rework to use rsvg2/gtk2 because it doesn't make sense for it. So how
do I use my project now on FreeBSD?
It's also a lie that it's not maintained, it's maintained by ports@ mailing
list and the community. So please, restore it.
The same also probably goes for other ports, but I don't have enough details
to comment.
Thanks!
