I started running short on disk space for the non-production FreshPorts hosts. This time, I have decided to ask for donations. See my recent blog post which points to my Patreon account.
Server is being updated to FreeBSD 14.3 as you read this... and it is done.
Commit processing is stalled - it is a jail issue. I will work on it later today. 2025-09-17 12:17 UTC - It has been fixed. Sometime before 17:27 UTC.

Description:
D-BUS supplies both a system daemon (for events such as "new hardware device added" or "printer queue changed") and a per-user-login-session daemon (for general IPC needs among user applications). Also, the message bus is built on top of a general one-to-one message passing framework, which can be used by any two apps to communicate directly (without going through the message bus daemon).

devel/dbus: Fix CMake config

The CMake config was essentially searching for the dbus pkgconfig file
in ${LOCALBASE}/lib/pkgconfig instead of ${LOCALBASE}/libdata/pkgconfig.
Not finding it, DBus1_FOUND was being set to false. devel/qt6-base, in
particular, was not finding dbus before this change.
