general/other is PlayOnBSD still working in FreeBSD 14.1 ?

Hi all, after having solved issues and successfully installed Wine, I'm looking for PlayOnBSD to work, as it is needed to run Jasc PaintShopPro 7 for Windows (32bit) which until FBSD 14.0 could be started from inside PlayOnBSD installed software , while could not be installed by Wine/Winetricks.
PlayOnBSD package installation and its dependencies including latest Python version went apparently ok, then running PlayOnBSD from console, claims Python 2.7 , 2.9 ...exc missing, although latest package is present. I believe there is a Python version issue for PlayOnBSD to work.
Can anyone tell if this can be solved somehow?
Thank you all
 
14.1-RELEASE has been EOL for over a month now. Update to 14.2-RELEASE.

You should also have a look on open PRs for any given port you encounter problems with - i.e. the problem you are facing has already been reported: PR 279827 and the possible solution: PR 282683.

Regarding Python 2.7/2.9: anything that still uses/needs those ancient versions should be considered broken.
According to the ports dependency list it uses version 3.11 though...
 
Thank you a lot for replying, so I see that a specific patch has been written for the issue, now I would need to know the way to apply it, as am missing knowledge for this.
 
after installed both py311-natsort and ImageMagick7-nox11 packages, this is what I get:
Code:

missing any further suggestion, have asked to AI how could fix the issue reporting those output lines. Among a list of possible solution I'm thinking about the following as it seems the simplest to me:
"Some versions of wxPython may not be fully compatible with Python 3.11.9. You might need to downgrade Python or find a compatible wxPython version".
Any comments about?
Thank you
