Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-ruby mailing list
<ruby at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 230289: lang/ruby23 lang/ruby24 lang/ruby25: Remove dbm library and replace
it with databases/rubygem-dbm
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230289



--- Description ---
* Remove dbm library from main ruby ports and replace it with newly created
databases/rubygem-dbm port. There are 2 intentions about it.
  - Provide a way to select back end of dbm library without adding extra
dependencies to main ruby ports.
  - Deprecate troublesome databases/ruby-bdb port by setting default back end
of databases/rubygem-dbm to Berkeley DB.
* Fix some portlint warnings.
* Bump PORTREVISION.

Because databases/rubygem-dbm port depends on bug #230191, please commit this
bug report after bug #230191 is committed.
