Yes it's not, it will only fail to start.

so something like that?

+
+<p>
+The MinIO Gateway and the related filesystem mode entered a feature freeze in
+July 2020. In February 2022, MinIO announced the deprecation of the MinIO
+Gateway. Along with the deprecation announcement, MinIO also announced that the
+feature would be removed in six months time.
+
+<p>
+The MinIO port has been update to a version where the MinIO Gateway and the
+related filesystem mode code have been removed.  Deployments still using the
+standalone or filesystem MinIO modes that upgrade to that latest version will
+fail to start.
+
+<p>
+The last MinIO version supporting the MinIO is provided under the package
+<tt>minio-old</tt>.
+
+The upstream project provide a
+<a href="https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/operations/install-deploy-manage/migrate-fs-gateway.html">
+  procedure to migrate to a new Single-Node Single-Drive deployment
+</a>.

I have two remaining questions:
1. should minio and minio-old conflict? To migrate to the SNSD mode,
only the old version is enough, you don't need to have both.
Otherwise if we don't set a conflict marker I'll rename the minio.rc to
minio-old.rc I guess

2. what should be done for credentials? As pointed out in
https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-server/settings/root-credentials.html

> If MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD is unset, minio defaults to minioadmin.

currently I have
/usr/ports/net/minio/server$ cat pkg/minio.login 
minio:\
	:openfiles-cur=4096:\
	:openfiles-max=8192:\
	:setenv=MINIO_ROOT_USER=root,MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=yourstrongpassword:\
	:tc=daemon:
plus a MESSAGE telling the user to update the password, should I go
that way?
or comment out the setenv line?

or don't provide the minio.login at all and put it in the README? maybe
it won't work well without the bumped limits so it will force the user
to check it (and not use a default password)?

Cheers,
Daniel
