With this release upstream has decided not to include some prebuilt
and bundled parts. So the port now needs to download some extra
files, to be able to compile.
Also while building calibre now needs to launch parts of itself
which creates a temporary directory in LOCALBASE, if it is writable,
so clean that up after the build.
- Use DIST_SUBDIR, since the port is downloading multiple files
now.
- Add new dependencies for things not embedded anymore
- Remove unneeded EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS
- Remove references to python2
- Bundle predigested user-agent-data.json file, adding a utility
target to easily regenerate it
- Move from dead upstream textproc/cchardet to drop-in-ready
textproc/py-charset-normalizer [1]

Today is 💖 Free Software Day and what better way to celebrate than with
a brand new version of Plasma! The KDE team expressing their ❤ for Free
Software
Plasma 5.27 brings exciting new improvements to your desktop, and the
first thing you'll notice when firing up Plasma is our new Konqi-powered
wizard which will guide you through setting up the desktop.
Other big new features include a window tiling system, a more stylish
app theme, cleaner and more usable tools, and widgets that give you more
control over your machine.
Additionally, Plasma 5.27 is a Long Term Support version with tons of
stability work and bugfixes, so you can feel the warm and stable 💘 from
the KDE community forever... Or at least until the next LTS rolls around
in 2024!

Since this port works with Python 3.8 and later, the value of
PY_PILLOW doesn't change. So replace reference to it with its value.

www/writefreely had a stray duplicate MAINTAINER block
from an earlier botched commit. I did intentionally not
touch the entry in UPDATING.
