Re: nvidia-driver and no update in /usr/ports/UPDATING

It's not just this.

Look at this:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249252

Broken on 2020-09-11 and again on 2022-02-03 for the same reasons,
an unannounced name change. In this case, a font name.
Great for a website using that font. Look carefully at UPDATING
like a good sysadmin, then update and bam! no website!
I manage several websites using this font. It's an adobe ttf
font, it's popular. I was fortunate to find it before the sites 
themselves were updated, because I was looking at poudriere building
at the time.

Nothing has been done in this ticket, it remains open and 
there's still nothing in UPDATING.

it's becoming impossible to run an up-to-date and reliable service
on freebsd because of failure of maintainers to follow the 
policy of updating /usr/ports/UPDATING when a port hasn't just MOVED.

My irritation is *entirely* down to the changes not being present in
UPDATING. I know things change, what grinds my gears is the changes
not being documented in a way that is visible.

Are other BSDs like this?!?
