Just dump the upstream changelog in the commit? This was an update over several releases though, so I'm not sure if that would not have been too much?

Ah, I thought it was obvious enough that it removes hardcoded paths so that it works with pkgsrc on those OSes :).

They wouldn't work anymore, as I skipped several versions when updating it. profanity changed quite a lot.

What would be a good place for that TODO? I have no NetBSD machine to try this on, though, which is another reason I did not port the patches :). It seemed better to just use ncurses than untested code that most likely suffered from bitrot and would need updating?
