Since INDEX version in CVS is always too old, portmgr decided to

remove it.  You will still be able to build your own INDEX or use
'fetchindex' target in /usr/ports/.

The last INDEX song ever.
(sung to the tune of "Imagine" by John Lennon)

Imagine there's no INDEX
It's easy if you try
It was a hard decision
It should now go and die
Imagine all the people
Building INDEX today...

Imagine there's no ports
Is it so hard to do ?
Nothing to break or fix for
And no GNOME too
Imagine all the people
Fetching INDEX today...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But the hacks must go away
I hope someday you won't break it
And let the downloads rule the day

Imagine there's no cluster
I wonder if you can
Two hundreds ports are broken
Please help us, Uncle Sam
Imagine all the people
Loving INDEX today...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But the hacks must go away
I hope someday you won't break it
And let the downloads rule the day
