The ancient version from the ports tree got eventually removed and nobody
had the patients to form the recent releases into a port.
As I am using the server privately I can live with the port not beeing
up to par with the usual standards in the ports tree. The following
known problems exist:
- The libyaml dependency is required at runtime but the port fails to
detect that dependency resulting in a warning.
- The source would require a preparation step where all the dependencies
are bundled with the source in one archive. As running autoreconf is
required to download the dependencies the source tar ball would have
to be converted to use configure directly.
- Going from one version to another requires database update scripts
to be run. These must be bundled with the port.
