The State of Packages On FreeBSD
What Is The Overall Scope Of The Problem?
Nearly 18,500 ports
Many different build environments ("buildenvs"):
4 different OS releases (
soon
to be "only" 3!)
3 different architectures (with more to come)
for a total of 10 (the matrix is sparse).
It is extremely hard to understand the dependency graph
