FreeBSD ports you maintain which are out of date

[Dima Pasechnik]

Here is an email from portscout I got today - is it sent in error, as
I have nothing to do with the port mentioned there (and I do not
maintain any ports), and it's not directed to me, but to the whole
mailing list?

While perhaps it's not an error, but a deliberate way to point at
orphaned ports, it happens way too often in order not to be  a
spam-like  irritant. And then it has to start with  "Dear potential
port maintainer", not "Dear port maintainer" (the latter is just
misleading)

Dear port maintainer,

The portscout new distfile checker has detected that one or more of your
ports appears to be out of date. Please take the opportunity to check
each of the ports listed below, and if possible and appropriate,
submit/commit an update. If any ports have already been updated, you can
safely ignore the entry.

You will not be e-mailed again for any of the port/version combinations
below.

Full details can be found at the following URL:
http://portscout.freebsd.org/ports@freebsd.org.html


Port                                            | Current version | New version
------------------------------------------------+-----------------+------------
www/squidclamav                                 | 6.16            | 7.0
------------------------------------------------+-----------------+------------


If any of the above results are invalid, please check the following page
for details on how to improve portscout's detection and selection of
distfiles on a per-port basis:

Thanks.
