of the 2.x line, and the author has chosen to no longer host version 3.x
on sourceforge.net.
Since our only consumer of this port is gnucash, and gnucash requires
the Qt component of aqbanking (qbanking), I chose to make the qbanking
interface a non-optional decision. In case there might be further
consumers in future, this could perhaps also be made optional.
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.
