 Hi,
 
 I have reset the maintainer of lang/swi-pl due to continuous lack of
 replies for a long time.
 
 Simply replacing the dependency on databases/unixODBC with a dependency on
 databases/libiodbc does not seem to be wise. Both are required by other
 popular ports, so a conflict may occur with either of them. A better
 solution would be to let the user choose one at build time via OPTIONS in
 the Makefile.
 
 Best regards,
 Stefan
