https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=257991 --- Comment #4 from Sergei Vyshenski <svysh.fbsd@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Nuno Teixeira from comment #3) Nuno, Thank you for your concern. Let me clarify. Maybe here we have an example of a bigger problem. I do not have a goal to collect unattended ports. I am just concerned about updating dependencies for my main port security/p5-openxpki. It has many hundreds of dependencies (if you count test_dependecies, there are around a thousand of them). And often it is essential that these dependencies be up to date -- for correct work of the named port. Some maintainers of these dependencies have been not seen in the FreeBSD project for 10-15 years. Often when I try to update a such, I takes months. With time patches turn obsolete, I have to recreate them. IMHO this practice is strange and even humiliating. And maybe it is worth reconsidering.
