supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
subdirectory detection.

* Hack around the fact that the above then wants to call various
autotools to rebuild parts of the build infrastructure which,
depending on the ports installed can cause things to fail in
weird and wonderful ways.
libtool-generated shared libraries by forcing libtool into understanding
that FreeBSD can correctly handle shared library dependencies.
This code already exists in the libtool CVS repository but without knowing
the release schedule (if any) for a new libtool 1.5.x series, and the
exceptional performance gains (gnucash for example uses 122 shared libraries
and with things rebuilt now starts up in ~10 seconds as opposed to 15
*minutes*). Further, a number of people have assisted in extensive testing
of this code in a series of different environments, so I am therefore
adding this patch to the tree.

The versioned autotools are now strictly for building other ports in the tree.
Likewise, the gnu- autotools are for runtime dependencies for IDEs, and others,
where unmodified cross-platform capabilities are desired.
Take back maintainership. I'll be scouring the PR database shortly,
if I miss any, or someone beats me to it, please feel free to reassign
appropriately.
or interest to look after these things any more.
To whomever picks these up, I salute you. I'll reset the relevant
PRs to ports-bugs in a couple of weeks if no-one has taken over
maintainership.
Farewell, autotool hell.
ftp.gnu.org compromise and resultant trashing of lots of files.
Why they haven't gotten things back into a proper state yet is an
entirely different question.
* kill devel/libtool and move to devel/libtool13, upgrading to 1.3.5
* upgrade repo-copied devel/libtool14 to 1.4.3
* break out libltdl into its own separate port
* move to version-numbered binaries/scripts (ie: there is *no* 'libtool'
any more -- USE_LIBTOOL and USE_LIBTOOL_VER are your friends)

list by bsd.port.mk insert anti foot-shooting device, which prevents
infinite fork loop when the user defines corresponding USE_XXX in global
make.conf, command line or environment.
Similar devices should probably be inserted into ports that might be inserted
into dependency list by others bsd.foo.mk files (bsd.ruby.mk, bsd.python.mk
and so on.)
since I'm doing most of the updating, and am working on a
port/Mk/bsd.<gnublah>.mk to move some cruft around.
