 If you are interested in creating a new port or contributing please  No matter how fast we update the tree it seems that we are always
 visit  behind.  For this reason you will sometimes find a port that is
   marked as BROKEN.  If you try to build the port you will see a
   message something like:
   
      ===> xxx-1.0 is marked as broken: newer version available.
   
   This means we know there is a newer version of the application but
   have not yet had time to update the port.  If you get this message
   all may not be lost.  If the old sources are still available (and
   this is often the case) you can force a build using the old sources
   using the command:
   
           make NO_IGNORE=yes
           sudo make NO_IGNORE=yes install
   
   If youre feeling generous a better solution is to update the port
   to use the new sources and feed the changes back to the project.
