This port has been stuck at 1.1-p2 since 2009 and unmaintained since
- Meanwhile, it has been buildable but not usable on any version
of FreeBSD since 12.0 due to ABI issues which were patched in base but
not upstream.
OpenBSM in base is currently (since 2017) at 1.2-alpha5 plus various
fixes. Recently, we upstreamed everything that hadn't yet been
upstreamed and tagged 1.2-alpha6. This allows us to update the port
to something that works and more or less matches what's in base.
- Update to 1.2-alpha6 which includes all bug fixes from base and more.
- Switch to GitHub since 1.2-alpha6 is not (yet?) available from the TrustedBSD website.
- Mark JOBS_UNSAFE as the build system appears to have incomplete dependency information, leading to a sequencing issue in auditdistd when built at high -j settings.
- Assume maintainership.
