Hi nusenu

thanks again for your responses !

That's where I got it from

Good hint. When I follow the link I find the archivers/zstd port will be 
included which seems up to date (libzstd.so.1.2.0, 30 Jul 2016). That's 
what I did. Fine.

Which is the right port for lzma ? When I try to include 
archivers/lzmalib (liblzma.so.1.1.0, 23 Sep 2008) I find it 
un-maintained, old and Tor does not configure for it:

checking for LZMA... no
configure: WARNING: Unable to find liblzma.
checking for ZSTD... yes

Is there a better lzma port ?
