-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.

troubles... When the author goes back to X.Y.Z releases, this will not
be neccessary, but the current latest version is 7.14.4-1 (the dash
instead of dot is not acceptable for PORTVERSION).
Investigated by: pav
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

FreeBSD. The official GNOME 2.22 release notes can be found at
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ . On the FreeBSD front,
this release features an updated hal port with support for video4linux
devices, DRM (Direct Rendering), and better support of removable media. Work
is also underway to tie webkit more closely into GNOME. As part of the
GNOME 2.22 upgrade, GStreamer received a rather large upgrade as well.
Be sure to consult UPDATING on the proper steps to upgrade all of your
GNOME ports.
This release would not have been possible without the contributions and
testing efforts of the following people:
Pawel Worach

edwin
Peter Ulrich Kruppa
J. W. Ballantine

Take over maintainership temporarily upon request from the software's
author(s), who were unable to reach the previous maintainer.
In both:
- use explict --mandir=${PREFIX}/man to avoid man-pages getting
into ${PREFIX}/shared/man incorrectly
- deal with the NOPORTDOCS situation by simply not-extracting
the extra documentation from the distribution tarball
- parallelize the build to scale with the number of CPUs
In vips:
- move the (giant) list of man-pages into a separate Makefile.man
- turn the pages, which contain only `.so other-page', into
MANLINKS (specified in Makefile.man)
- provide a "maintainance target" to regenerate the Makefile.man
during the next upgrade
- do not install the HTML-ized versions of man-pages
- create OPTIONS for use of devel/liboil and graphics/ImageMagick
(OPTION to use PYTHON awaits portmgr's decision/action)
In nip2:
- do install the HTML pages regardless of NOPORTDOCS -- these
are accessible to the user through the application GUI
- arrange for update-mime-database and update-desktop-database
to be run upon install (@exec) and uninstall (@unexec)
- LIB_DEPEND on math/gsl, which nip2 can use for extra functionality
These ports are in need of a dedicated maintainer.

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.
Here are review of diff between old nad new distfiles:
(1) libdata upgrades.
(2) pkg-config files added (vips.pc and vipsCC.pc).
(3) Some small bugs fixed.
(4) Two programs added to build.
(5) Some debug code was removed.
Your could check, that distfile was replaced by visiting
official site and reading news.
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.
