Re: c-icap-modules not available anymore on pkgin command

Oh, that's interesting. This is the first time I ever heard of 
'Percona'. I am looking into that fork now.
However, I can hardly believe 'Mariadb' is not used anymore. Maybe not 
from the Joyent-pkgsrc builds, but from the pkgsrc-repo in general..?
For me, as an OmniOSce user, there's also the option of migrating to 
their 'extra' repo for 'mariadb', but I guessed 'pkgsrc' as a repo would 
be more future proof. I may have been mistaken. Unless 'Percona' is a 
proper drop-in replacement. Thanks for that pointer.

Then still, what about 'squid' and 'squid-clamav'? I would hate to see 
them gone forever as well. Having a hard time believing no-one is using 
these either...

I don't think I am on the level of being able to maintain such packages 
myself yet.
