lsof package issue - how to report?

Hi,

I just stumbled upon an lsof annoyance I want to report to the package maintainers. I'm just using pkg, no src and poudriere.

The annoyance is quite simple: FreeBSD is an OS which comes with ZFS enabled and shipped by default, but lsof gets compiled without ZFS support.

Bash:
root@kraftwerk:/tmp # lsof | less
lsof: WARNING: no ZFS support has been defined.
      See 00FAQ for more information.

00FAQ clearly states this:

8.5 FreeBSD ZFS Problems

8.5.1 Why does FreeBSD lsof report "WARNING: no ZFS support has been
defined."?

Lsof issues that message when it detects a file on a ZFS file
system, but has not been built with support for ZFS. Lsof's
Configure script detects support can be added for ZFS when it
finds this file:

/usr/src/sys/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/sys/zfs_znode.h

So that's a compile time short coming. In my opinion lsof should be shipped with enabled ZFS support by default.

Is Bugzilla the way to go for reporting this?

Thanks!
