represents a change to the Portfile that is unrelated to this ticket.
Thank you for assigning the ticket and reviewing the patch!
Sorry I misunderstood where you were coming from with the "universal"
question. Universal was needed as part of providing a complete fix for
the port as the dependency on my systems and I couldn't conveniently fix
and test one without the other.
Regarding a GitHub PR: I do have a GitHub account, but my legacy
environment's vintage browsers cannot handle the modern script rendering
requirements of the GitHub web interface to submit a Pull Request.
Because `giflib5` is marked as `openmaintainer`, and since the attached
Portfile has been tested to build out-of-the-box on two legacy setups
(10.5.8/10.11.6), would it be possible for you or another core committer
to commit these changes directly to the repository on my behalf?
Once again, thank you. I hope this is helpful :-)
I greatly appreciate your help in getting this landed for the legacy user
base!
