both current (fc4) and future linux (f8) distributions at one
ports tree.
The patch contains full changes to ports/Mk files and all ports involved.
But only infrastructure is changed. The resulting packages are the same as
before. Hence no need to bump PORTREVISIONs.
The idea was taken from bsd.gnome.mk and others.
More than 130 ports are switched to follow a new linux infrastructure
introduced by changes to bsd.port.mk, bsd.linux-rpm.mk and a new
bsd.linux-apps.mk.
Thanks for all who was involved and helped me with this work.
And help from Alexander Leidinger was incredible.
Other changes are coming. Stay tuned!

notes can be found at:

fixes are thinly spread across KPDF with a number of crash
fixes, KGPG and probably most interesting various fixes
in kicker, KDE3's panel:
* Improved visibility on transparent backgrounds

soon. We are not sure we have time to get 3.5.10 for FreeBSD
7.1/6.4 release, but we would have minimum 3.5.9 for those
people who prefer to stay with KDE3.
Of course Thanks to all Testers.

8.1.2, including the issue of fonts that were configured using
fontconfig not being picked up by the Reader to render documents
(reported by Novell).

"brokenCRDs". This value is set to "false" by default and can be
modified to "true" if one faces the red background issue.

Reader in 8.1.2 release.

stdin when using the -toPostScript option.
* Hardcoding of printer command: Earlier the printer command was
hardcoded in the reader binary. This has been fixed in Reader 8.1.2
to pick up the command from the PATH environment variable.
