The db5 port currently does not have a maintainer
-
Hello fellow Netgate community members,
Can you please help?
I noticed that when I reinstall my URL blocker I am seeing this in the install details. Does that mean db5 will go away?
FYI
Shell Output - pkg info -r db5
db5-5.3.28_9:
squidGuard-1.4_15---->
The db5 port currently does not have a maintainer. As a result, it is
more likely to have unresolved issues, not be up-to-date, or even be removed in
the future. To volunteer to maintain this port, please create an issue at:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla
More information about port maintainership is available at:
https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/contributing/#ports-contributing
Always:
===> NOTICE:
This port is deprecated; you may wish to reconsider installing it:
EOLd, potential security issues, maybe use db18 instead.
It is scheduled to be removed on or after 2023-06-30. -

That is a message from the FreeBSD ports system about the state of that dependency port in the FreeBSD ports system. It isn't relevant to how the package operates on pfSense for the time being.
