cd /usr/ports/misc cvs rm -Rf cbb cd ../devel/quirks vi Makefile (bump) vi files/Quirks.pm (add to setup_obsolete_reason hash at the bottom i.e. around line 630, the numbers at the start of the line come from $obsolete_message; pick an existing one or add a new using a spare number e.g. you could go with 8 => "not Y2K compliant" if you want something more fun than 6 or 9) That's the general approach for most things. If someone already has it installed _it will stay installed_ but print the message. Sometimes it makes sense to directly merge an old port into a new one if there's a very close equivalent. python ports are more fiddly because they depend on a more specific version of python, which breaks things when python switches to a new major release i.e. 3.13 -> 3.14 etc - so needs to be done in an extra annoying way...but not relevant for cbb.
