Re: s/getmail/getmail6 before freeze (package superseding)

TL;DR

To sum up:
- leave mail/getmail as-is for this quarter;
- update mail/getmail6 to latest revision (6.19.10) as it contains all our patches upstream; - update DESCR for mail/getmail to make it clear that it is sunsetting and mail/getmail6 shall be considered instead.

After freeze:
- ping pkgsrc-users about mail/getmail becoming mail/getmail5 and that getmail6 is the new default;
- "rename" mail/getmail to mail/getmail5

Acceptable?

This sounds good to me, thank you!

You could ping pkgsrc-users right now if you want to. That way, people would have time to reply.
