Message after installing

This package also installs a desktop application file for bsdconfig(8),
FreeBSD's system configuration tool, for operation as a graphical
interface (starting with -X) as permitted with xdialog(1) as helper tool.
However, for proper operation this requires either running as the root user, or
sudo(8) to be installed and the user to be allowed in the sudoers(5) file.

===>   NOTICE:

The xdialog port currently does not have a maintainer. As a result, it is
more likely to have unresolved issues, not be up-to-date, or even be removed in
the future. To volunteer to maintain this port, please create an issue at:
