in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.
Don't remove uniqueid if the package is uninstalled.
Update RUN_DEPENDS; xsetbg may also be found in ports/x11/xloadimage now.
Use DATADIR.
Note to maintainers of x11/xloadimage and graphics/xli: there is no CONFLICTS
definition for those ports.

Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.
USE_SDL=yes -> USE_SDL=sdl (good examles everywhere)
WANT_SDL/HAVE_SDL instead of exists(localbase/lib/lib...)
See
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/using-sdl.html
for more information on how to use USE_SDL, WANT_SDL and HAVE_SDL.
