This fixes addport for me on -stable (cvs was erroring out), and also
fixes addport when you have the EDITOR environment variable set.

actually simplifies some of the code and makes other parts more complicated.

is it makes patch names longer, and many shells autoexpand it to "\:\:"
which makes them even longer.

Some work/cleanup here would probably be desirable. I'm committing them
now to give others the ability to reproduce these package splits and help
with making these scripts better. The README should have some more
documentation in the future.
A better solution to the package set size problem would be to teach
sysinstall to ask for the CD on which a particular package is when it
needs to add it, but for now this will do.

down to user support flaws in the FreeBSD ports system. The flaw in question
is related to the fact that dependencies are often "chained", which allows to
simplify maintenance of ports with large number of implied dependencies (a la
Evolution, Nautilus, you-name-it). Dependency chaining it's not a problem by
itself, but the fact that when building or installing a port the system doesn't
check chain integrity - it's only checks that dependencies explicitly
specified in port's Makefile are satisfied, which opens wide window for
various hard-trackable problems when one or more links in the middle of the
chain missed.
The idea behind the tool is quite simple - it should be executed right after
main dependency checking procedure, two times for each build - check build-time
chain before building the port (pre-pre-extract) and check run-time chain
before installing the port (pre-pre-install). When executed, the tool checks
integrity of the specified chain (build-time, run-time or both) and reports all
errors, both fatal (dependency isn't installed) and non-fatal (dependency is
installed, but different version).
I've wrote this tool mostly to simplify maintenance of the GNOME ports, but
it doesn't contain anything GNOME-specific, so that it could be used in the
other parts of tree as well.
As an example I've added GNOME_VALIDATE_DEPS_CHAIN knob into bsd.gnome.mk (off
by default), which enables automatic chain validation for all ports that
USE_GNOMELIBS. This is a bit hackish, because I've used pre-extract and
pre-install targets - what we probably need is a generic way to plug various
custom tasks specified in bsd.xxx.mk (where xxx is kde, gnome, python, etc.)
into various parts of the build process (something like {pre,post}-pre-foo,
{pre,post}-post-foo springs into my mind).
The code is quite raw, so that I would appreciate any bug reports, patches,
suggestions, constructive critiquie and so on.
file. For example I'm usually keeping all working directories in /tmp using
WRKDIRPREFIX, while for the quick access to a port's files creating a symlink
to this directory in skeleton's dir (i.e. ports/foo/bar/src -->
/tmp/usr/ports/foo/bar/work/bar-0.0) and with this patch the tool correctly
works when I'm specifying `src/foo.c' as an argument.
Add mkppackage, which will create a "fake"-style package, but not
really. It doesn't try fake PREFIX and such to the build (it's not
really possible anyway yet), but it uses pkg_create's '-s' option to
pretend the package generated was installed in ${PREFIX}.
a work/ dir in the repository placed there by addport without permission.
Also restore the rcsids from the predecessors of this script by removing
their $'s.
If I had more time, I'd just revamp parts of this script.

tool has something in common with update-patches shell script, but has more
features and is more intelligent. See README.patchtool or source code for
details.
