Ports for FreeBSD 5.x Ended2008年06月03日 17時32分43秒

port の FreeBSD 5.x のサポートが終了したとのアナウンスが流れた。
As of June 1, 2008 00:00:00 UTC, FreeBSD 5.X support in the ports tree
is End Of Life.  This means that a ports tree checked out after this
date is not guaranteed to produce usable packages on 5.X.  Additionally,
5.X package builds on the cluster will cease.  Users are encouraged to
upgrade to 6.3 or 7.0 if they wish to continue to track the latest ports
tree.

A tag, RELEASE_5_EOL, has been laid down to mark the last point in the
ports tree that officially supported FreeBSD 5.X.  Port Manager asks
that you not rush to remove 5.X support right away as we'd like a
settling-down period, and we want secteam to have a chance to make their
EOL announcements as well.
