The portmaster script hasn't had an official maintainer in 9 months and 2 years before that it was only patched in reaction to changes in the ports framework. There are many unclaimed PRs in the bugzilla database, many known bugs, and several areas where portmaster no longer aligns with how ports work today. The problem isn't simply getting a maintainer; that person has to be a ports framework expert and it appears that the people with these qualifications don't want anything to do with this port. Moreover, there are better options available. All FreeBSD platforms support ports-mgmt/poudriere (although some many struggle under the load) and the most common amd64 and i386 platform users have the additional option of ports-mgmt/synth which is user-friendly, lightweight, and aimed at users of portmaster, portupgrade, and even poudriere. Unless something drastic regarding portmaster occurs, it's nearing its natural EOL, so it's users should evaluate alternatives and try to migrate off of it. |
