            Bug ID: 283792
           Summary: security/mbedtls: why is unversioned port origin
                    deprecated while there is a supported versioned port
                    origin in tree?
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

While I understand that we sometimes need versioned port origins, I expect the
unversioned one to be the latest version (or a meta port depending on it),
except if there are reasons to do otherwise like default versions or that
version got into the tree to test and improve freebsd support.

So I can't understand why the unversioned port origin should be deprecated
while we have supported versioned port origins of that project in tree.
Especially if it is the only one, it could easily get moved to be the
unversioned port origin.

So I request that you revert the deprecation of security/mbedtls and just move
security/mbedtls3 into its place or if you expect that more versioned origins
will be needed in the future, convert security/mbedtls into a meta port
depending on security/mbedtls3.

Best regards
Benjamin
