Yes, it has been fixed, thank you very much. Update your ports tree
using cvsup to get the fixes.
You can look here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/databases/phpmyadmin/
or here:
http://www.freshports.org/databases/phpmyadmin/
to see the current status of the port.
phpMyAdmin has not been 'marked as broken' since I've been maintaining
it. However it has had a whole series of security alerts come out
against it in recent months, each of which have required the phpMyAdmin
team to make a corresponding series of point releases. The phpMyAdmin
port is usually updated within a few days of the upstream update coming out.
Don't confuse 'BROKEN', which has a specific meaning in ports Makefiles
with the effects of portaudit(1). That, if you've got it installed,
will prevent you from installing a port version with known
vulnerabilities unless you jump through the right hoops.
Cheers,
Matthew
