tcsh source site question

Hi, I noticed a while ago, port tcsh has been stuck on tcsh-6.24.10 but the current release is tcsh-6.24.16. So I did some poking around. Seems replication to site http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/ftp.astron.com/pub/tcsh/ is not working, plus seems that site is not is not 'owned' by the tcsh developers. You can see this tread from the tcsh mailing list for a brief conversation about that site. https://mailman.astron.com/pipermail/tcsh/2026-May/000406.html Sometime in the future you may want to source from site: https://astron.com/pub/tcsh/ FWIW, I am able to compile and use tcsh-6.24.16.tar.gz on OpenBSD 7.8 amd64 without any issues or patches. Regards, John
