Oak is a program that can be used to monitor syslogs from a collection
of servers and notify operators when problem conditions arise. In
addition to providing immediate notification of critical problems oak
will also batch less critical problems into summary messages that can
be sent less often and via any medium. For example you may wish to
have oak page you on critical events while sending a summary of less
important messages to your terminal once an hour. In addition you
could send a daily email message summarizing all events.

- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not neccesary anymore to override
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the linux X11 libraries
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
default (or overriden) linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
instead of a hardcoded reference.
- Change all ports to comply to the "new world order".
- The Ports Collection now allows to override the default linux_base port.
Specify e.g. OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=rh-9 in /etc/make.conf to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 (the logic is to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-${OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT}).
- If USE_LINUX or OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE doesn't point to an existing linux_base
port and if USE_LINUX isn't set to "yes" (case insensitive), the port will
be marked as IGNORE. [1]
- Readd USE_LINUX knobs into several ports and make several uses of a
conditional dependency ("USE_LINUX?=") into an unconditional one
("USE_LINUX=") which where removed/changed by Trevor to allow the use of
alternative linux_base ports. While this is a nice goal, the implementation
resulted in missing dependencies. The OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT knob
in this commit is supposed to fix the problem while keeping the feature.
Basicaly this includes a backout of Trevor's commit, to prevent confusion
I mention it here explicitely.
- Use the correct prefix (X11- instead of LOCAL- or LINUX-) for some ports.
Chase dependencies for this.
- Changes to make linux_devtools installable on amd64, remove some stray
device nodes (they don't work on recent OS versions and aren't really
needed).
- Make linux_base-8 PREFIX clean and remove some stray device nodes.
Additionally tell a little bit more about how to setup NIS/YP [2].
- Update the PGSQL dependency in the linux-opengroupware port to a recent
version (the old one isn't available anymore), I don't know if this
works (at least it isn't more broken than before).
- Use PREFIX/usr/share/doc instead of PREFIX/usr/doc in the divx4linux
ports, the former path exists already and gets populated by other
packages too (PREFIX=LINUXPREFIX!).
- Fix some obvious (non-linuxolator) bugs in some linux ports while being
there.
- Bump PORTREVISION where neccesary.

Changes of topless itself (not ports) from the previous version (1.36)
are as follows:
- Improve portability by using printf(1) instead of echo(1).
- Use "diff -C" instead of "diff -u" to make line parsing easier.
- Fix man page.
- "make install" can now be run by non-root user.
- Sync help message to man page.
- Remove README since it is the same as man page.

- Add a rcNG startup script
- Use mkstemp() instead of the insecure tempnam()
Moreover:
- Also create /var/spool/anacron when installed from a package
- Try to remove /var/spool/anacron when deinstalling the package; if
it fails, hint the user about removing it manually
- Respect ${CC}
- Install/deinstall ${PREFIX}/etc/anacrontab
- Split the monolithic patch-aa into separate patches
- Refactor some patches into ${REINPLACE_CMD} invocations
- Install the program ourselves (it is more straightforward than
fixing the vendor's Makefile)
- Use SUB_FILES=pkg-message

Unidesc consists of four programs for finding out what is in a Unicode file.
They are useful when working with Unicode files when one doesn't know the
writing system, doesn't have the necessary font, needs to inspect invisible
characters, needs to find out whether characters have been combined or in what
order they occur, or needs statistics on which characters occur.
o) Docs are now in separte distfile
o) rename rc.d/bacula.sh into rc.d/z-bacula.sh to avoid
problems with old style rc environment (postgres or mysql is
started after bacula).

New features for 1.0:
* pkg_genplist has a new run-mode which checks and reports pkg-plist
of current port is correct and what files and/or dirs are missing
or obsolete.
* pkg_trackinst got new option that handles +INSTALL, +DEINSTALL,
+DISPLAY files of pkgdb.
* pkg_genplist can be set to write new pkg-plist file with another
file name than "pkg-plist" with -o option.

a pkg-plist/pkgdb auto-generator for unpackaged softwares or unfinished
ports. It provides two commands:
* pkg_trackinst:
Tracks installation of unpackaged software and writes pkgdb
entry using the install log. Then, it also creates a binary
package for the installed package.
* pkg_genplist:
Generates `pkg-plist' of a port in current directory automatically
by a test installation.
ChangeLog:
* The user can use the -a command line option to include
files up to 32 times and the program
will include them in the Fix section.
* Problem Report definitions are handled with an opaque
PR_DEFS structure and accessed via
a helper function.
* Some of the code was moved into a new file (pr_defs.c).

- FreeBSD 5.x would produce incorrect 'icat' output for Ext2/3 and
UFS1 images because it used a 64-bit on-disk address
