Comment (by ryandesign):

 The imaxima / imath homepage has disappeared recently. There is still a
 link to it on the [https://maxima.sourceforge.io/relatedprojects.html
 maxima related projects page] so I have
 [https://sourceforge.net/p/maxima/bugs/4161/ asked the developers of
 maxima] if they know where it went.

 The [https://maxima.sourceforge.io/download.html maxima download page]
 says:

 > The Xmaxima and Imaxima interfaces are part of the Maxima project and
 they come included with Maxima

 and that would seem to be confirmed by the fact that when you try to
 install the imaxima port, it says the maxima port already installed that
 file. The solution therefore may be that we mark the imaxima port as
 [PortfileRecipes#replaced-by replaced by] the maxima port, and later
 delete the imaxima port.
