(1) The new NO_CDROM Boolean variable means "don't put the distfile/
package on the CDROM you're going to sell". It will basically
turn off everything if FOR_CDROM is set.
Many of the NO_PACKAGE ports are actually "don't sell for profit"
types, which we shouldn't have any problem distributing via ftp.
(2) The new RESTRICTED Boolean variable means don't build this unless
you know what you are doing. It doesn't have any effect unless
NO_RESTRICTED is also set.
(3) BROKEN means this port is broken. At least it will now show up in
INDEX and README.html, and give people more incentive to fix (I
hope).
RESTRICTED and BROKEN are expected to replace the pseudo-targets
in parent Makefiles. (The RESTRICTED and BROKEN list didn't do
anything before, they were solely for grepping purposes.)
(4) The Motif support brings in four new variables: REQUIRES_MOTIF,
which the porter sets for ports that require Motif to build;
HAVE_MOTIF, which the user sets to indicate the system has Motif;
MOTIF_STATIC, which the user sets to indicate that the static
libXm, instead af the default dynamic library, is to be used; and
MOTIFLIB, which is set to "${X11BASE}/lib/libXm.a" or
"-L${X11BASE}/lib -lXm", depending on whether MOTIF_STATIC is set.
The porter is expected to replace all occurrences of libXm in the
{Im,M}akefiles with ${MOTIFLIB}, and this will allow both dynamic
linkage (for users with Motif) and static linkage (for those who
build packages to be used by those withot Motif, i.e., me ;)
automatically.
Original Motif support idea by: graichen
man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.
devfs_link.9: modified man page to reflect source code
devfs_add_devsw.9: replaced by devfs_add_devswf.9
devfs_add_devswf.9: proper function for adding devices to DEVFS
word: "zilch"). I guess the only way to get people try and comment on
these kind of things is to shove it down their throat.... ;)
Anyway, here's a set of changes required for auto-generation of READMEs
in ports directories. Necessary changes and additions of templates
to the ports tree will follow shortly.
Eventually I'll commit all the generated READMEs to the tree, but that
will be in the rather distant future. For now, I encourage anyone
with a -current systam and a matching ports tree to do a "make readmes"
at the top level and see what they get.
Next step will be to add pkg/{COMMENT,DESCR} to all the categories.
looks rather ugly.
Also slightly adopt the contents to the results of a discussion that
took place in -core some months ago. We couldn't agree on everything,
but some of the previous sentiments were rather outdated.
