Both ports and it is the ports infrastructure, in /usr/ports/Mk, that calls them. Complaining about them on -current or -stable is a waste of everyone's time and will fall on deaf ears. portmgr made the decision to deprecate dialog4ports on Tue Oct 10 13:53:44 2023 (in /usr/ports/Scripts/dialog4ports.sh). If you have concerns about it, that's the forum to discuss it, or a PR. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert FreeBSD UNIX: Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: Web: https://nwtime.org e^(i*pi)+1=0
