1. Document the new package-related features for version 2.13
2. Remove the requirement that --options be first on the command line
3. Deprecate the -p option
4. Improve the prose in a few sections, mostly removing commas and
simplifying sentences.
5. Small markup tweaks
6. Clearly indicate that +IGNOREME files only work on installed ports
7. Document that -x will work on the origin directory if there is
no installed version.
8. In the example .portmasterrc file the verbose variable needed a value
This is svn version r200206.
New Features
============
1. Support for the following new options:
a. --packages|-P and --packages-only|-PP
b. --packages-build
c. --packages-if-newer
d. --delete-build-only
e. --always-fetch
f. --local-packagedir
In addition to the new code this also involved making some existing
messages more generic, and customizing some others to be aware of
whether packages are in use or not.
2. New command line parser allows placement of --long-options
anywhere in the command line
Minor Tweaks and Fixes
======================
1. Make fail() less finicky about how the message is input
2. Start the process of deprecating -p since it isn't useful
any longer
3. Fix parsing of PKG_DBDIR so that we don't depend on it having
exactly 3 components. This also saves 2 external calls to cut.
4. For the --clean-distfiles[-all] options sort the list before
printing to make it easier to see when files are related.
5. Instead of repeating the tests on when to run read_distinfos()
do them once in the initialization phase then rely on whether or
not DI_FILES is set.
6. Improve some messages to make their meaning more clear

My deepest appreciation to the FreeBSD community for the outpouring
of support that allowed me to complete this portion of the project.
The Tinderbox team is proud to announce the release of Tinderbox 3.3.
This release brings numerous bug fixes and some feature enhancements.
The changes include:
**HEADS UP** A static data change is included this release, so be sure
to run ``tc Upgrade''.
* A new unified logging system has been added so that all log files can
be centralized in one location. See the README for more details on
enabling this feature.
* A collection of user-contributed Hooks has been added. So far only
two Hooks are included. See the contrib/hooks subdirectory for more
details. Also, feel free to submit your Hook ideas.
* The /proc directory is now ignored when checking for leftovers. This
fixes some false-positives when running multiple builds in parallel.
* MySQL 6.0 is now supported.
... A full changelog is available here:

option being off would result in tc.bak being installed.

Add OPTIONS to install programmable completion files for Bash and zsh.
The Bash file is mine, the zsh file and installation suggestions are
from the PR. Additional testing for the zsh completions from garga.

============
1. The -x option can now be specified more than once.
2. The --list-origins option will list origins from root and leaf ports
for use in rebuilding all ports (for example after a major version upgrade).
This requires moving ports_by_category() up into the --features section
Improvements
============
1. Error checking for -f and -i now fails instead of silently unsetting -i
2. In dependency_check():
a. Switch to $origin instead of $d_port in several places to make the
messages to the user more clear and consistent
b. $origin is also better for check_interactive()
c. Move check_exclude down to after CONFLICTS check, and use $iport
if it exists. This is more consistent with how check_exclude() usually
works
3. Prefix DEPTH, PARENT_PID and EXCL environment variables with PM_
4. Tighten up multiport by saving confirmed directories into a temporary
list, then running check_exclude() and check_interactive() against
each item of the temporary list, then adding to the final list
5. Execute make in a subshell and unset some of the more unwieldy
environment variables in that shell. (Suggestions and testing by avg)
Details for -x:
===============
1. Since there may be multiple arguments for PM_EXCL, use export not $ARGS
2. Move the error checking into getopts
3. In check_exclude() go through each pattern in turn
It's based on Qt4 and it integrates with the system tray.

This version will go out with portmaster version 2.11 but the changes
are not specific to that version.
to make the code match the equivalent code in the main command line
parser, but I missed one which meant that if you specified multiple
glob patterns on the command line it no longer matched anything.
"Hey this doesn't work anymore" by: Florian Smeets <flo@smeets.im>
"I will do global searches for even small variable changes" x 1000: me
=========
1. Rework the NO_DEP_UPDATES feature which is an optimization when you
are updating or installing a port whose dependencies are all up to date.
a. Stop using a temporary file for this feature, and instead utilize the
existing IPC_SAVE mechanism
b. Focus the toggling of this flag in update_port() so that it will always
be unset when it needs to be (and not when it doesn't)
[This is the actual bug fix]
c. Add a flag that is global but not exported in dependency_check() so
that the toggle in update_port() will know when (and when not) to fire
2. Set PM_BUILDING when it needs to be set in multiport()
Enhancements
============
1. Use globstrip() in multiport(), change the variable to match the parser,
and add notes in the parser and multiport() to keep the code in synch
(it's _just_ different enough so that a function doesn't make sense atm)
2. Replace globstrip sed kludge with more effcient shell pattern
3. Make the PM_BUILDING values more explicit to aid in debugging
when using the -i option. This is a minor inconvenience for those users
that give a list of specific ports on the command line, but a huge
benefit for users who use a glob pattern that can easily match things
that don't need to be rebuilt.
-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.
It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop
and applications in the runtime.

===============
1. For the -[rf] and -R options:
a. Do not delete the flag files that indicate a port has been updated
until the -[rf] process is successful.
b. Update the wording in usage() to be more clear about what -R does
c. If a user starts -[rf] without -R, and there are flag files present,
ask if they would like to delete them, or enable -R mode.
2. Add a globstrip() function and use it to clean up inputs to -x
(and in the input parser where the idea originated)
3. Improve the wording of the message in -s mode about what to do if
they choose not to remove a port with an empty +REQUIRED_BY file
4. Tell the user how many fetches we are waiting for in -F
Removed Feature
===============
Remove the -u option. It did very little, and not what users expected.
* Do not compare a string with undef. [1]
* Remove the CONFIGURE_ARGS check for --prefix. This is not part of
_LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS, and thus will be set of all ports. [2]
