Where did 5.6.40 come from? I just looked at the ports repo and it was NEVER committed there. The very last commit to ports/head/lang/php56 was 5.6.39. Whil it has no impact on me, I find it very odd to find a package that never existed in ports. That makes it impossible for me to access the source for this package and recreate it for any reason. My gut feeling is that this is broken and should never happen. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: [email protected] PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
