This is the latest Calligra release, and the 2.9 series will be the last
KDE4-based release series.
As usual, huge thanks to Tobias Berner <tcberner@gmail.com> for working on this
in kde@'s area51 experimental repository (including previous Calligra releases
between 2.7.5 and 2.9.10).
Notable changes from a packaging perspective:
- Several dependencies have been updated to use more recent ports versions.
- Old translations not shipped by the current Calligra release have been
removed.
- The dependency on sysutils/nepomuk-core has been dropped, following what
upstream has done.
- The dependency on Qt3-compatibility Qt4 ports has been dropped, following
upstream.
- CONFLICTS with ancient ports have been removed.
- Support for G'MIC (GREYC's Magic for Image Computing), introduced after
2.7.5, is disabled by default, as building the code with clang requires
insane (>24GB) amounts of memory. We reported this bug to the LLVM developers
(bug 22199) almost a year ago, but there has been no activity upstream.
- Stopped depending on graphics/pstoedit in an unorthodox way: just follow what
every major Linux distribution does and unconditionally depend on it. I could
not figure out why we were originally depending on the port if it was already
installed.
- Stop playing tricks with PACKAGE_BUILDING: we do not package Vc
(https://github.com/VcDevel/Vc) so it does not make sense to turn on support
for it when building packages. Not only that, but the CMake option name was
wrong (it should be PACKAGERS_BUILD, not WITH_PACKAGERS_BUILD).
Unfortunately, LibreOffice project completely dropped support for pre-C++11
compilers and libraries since 4.4. Therefore, we cannot easily build it on
FeeBSD 9.x any more unless the system was rebuilt with WITH_CLANG_IS_CC and
WITH_LIBCPLUSPLUS. If user is unable to upgrade the system for some reason,
the old port, i.e., 4.3.7, is still available from devel/libreoffice4 (with
no language packs).
advise the users updating of the need to change their existing
configuration after the March 21st commit to ukrainian/monacofonts
by portmgr@
Pointy hat to: bapt
Xorg is now looking in ${LOCALBASE}/share/fonts by default
Xorg now accepts symlinks in etc/X11/fontpath.d (as decribed in Xserver(1))
Large cleanup on lots of font ports
All fonts are now properly dynamically generating fonts.dir and fonts.scale
instead of sometime overwriting existing ones)
All fonts are generating fontconfig's cache
Improve consistency in fonts ports
The kde@ team presents KDE SC 4.14.3, the last planed release
of the KDE SC 4 series.
In addition to the updates provided by the KDE SC developers, this
update also addresses numerous FreeBSD and PORTS specific
issues, found and solved by the kde@ team and area51 testers,

GCC 4.2 in FreeBSD 8.X/9.X base is now too old to compile OpenEXR, so
GCC-based systems will upgrade to the default ports compiler (GCC 4.7
currently.)
Add two patches to OpenEXR to permit building it in a live system with
the older OpenEXR version installed. Bug report filed to upstream Github
at https://github.com/openexr/openexr/issues/130
Couple OpenEXR more tightly to ilmbase and require its exact .so
version.
Add UPDATING note, and bump PORTREVISION of all dependent ports.
Proto-STAGE hugin-devel, and mark it IGNORE because hugin is newer.
Approved by: portmgr (implicit for bumping PORTREVISION on unstaged ports)
minor COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles
where not included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break
the Phabricator workflow. Categories T-V.
