Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2026-06-09
    Affects: Users of x11-wm/mango
    Author: nivit@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      Version 0.14.0 of Mango has some breaking changes:
    
      - IPC Protocol Upgrade: The old dwl IPC protocol is now deprecated and will
        be removed in the next version.
      - Socket Restructuring: mmsg(1) now restricts the use of independent sockets.
        This structural change delivers a more powerful, concise, and reliable
        syntax, allowing you to seamlessly retrieve data for all clients, tags,
        monitors, and messages.
    
      As a result, you must adapt any script that uses the mmsg(1) command to
      the new syntax.
