This program is a Gtk+/Gtkmm front end for the efax program for
receiving and sending faxes with a fax modem. Any files to be faxed
must be in postscript format, which is the generic printer format for
Unix/Linux systems. The program will use ghostscript to convert these
into the Group 3 fax format which the fax modem will understand.

- better handling of client command (^Ec|) when user is bumped,
conserver is reconfigured, etc
- added 'initsubst' option for 'initcmd' substitutions like
'devicesubst' and 'execsubst'
- modified and added to *subst (initsubst, etc) syntax to allow
for flexibility and future enhancement
- changed 'port' and 'portinc' minimums from 1 to 0 - it allows
more flexibility and helps with 0-based counting
- added --with-extmsgs configure switch to enable entertaining

- added ability to "move" to a new console via '^Ec;'

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

variables in this case are synonymous with the USE_ ones, and thus need

First in a series of major autotools cleanups.
Important changes:
==================
KDE:
- Audio/arts does not install artswrapper anymore, instead it is provided by
audio/artswrapper. See UPDATING.
- misc/kdeaddons3 is now a metaport with
editors/kate-plugins
editors/vimpart
games/atlantikdesigner
misc/kaddressbook-plugins
misc/kfile-plugins
misc/kicker-applets
misc/knewsticker-scripts
misc/konq-plugins
misc/ksig
misc/renamedlgplugins
multimedia/noatun-plugins
net/kontact-plugins
as slave ports.
- A number of KDE ports now uses OPTIONS do make various WITH_* options more
visible.
- Plist fixes
- devel/kdevelop should be able to detect FreeBSD's autoconf/automake now for
newly created projects.
- kdebase will no longer remove previous KDM configurations. This won't take
effect during the update from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1 (as deinstalling 3.2.0 will still
remove the configuration), but subsequent updates will merge old configs.
QT:
- Previous versions of QT could be compiled with debugging-support enabled by
defining DEBUG. This switch has been renamed to the more unambiguous
WANT_QT_DEBUG (similar to WANT_KDE_DEBUG in the KDE ports).
Important changes:
==================
- Kmail and knode have been moved from kdenetwork to kdepim. This
means you will have to install kdepim if you want to continue using
kmail or knode. This is to ease integration with korganizer, in
the new 'Kontact' application.
- The arabic translations for KDE and KOffice have been moved from
misc to the arabic category.
- There is a new module called kdeaccessibility in the accessibility
category. It contains a few utilities for disabled users like a
magnification lens and a text-to-speech frontend.
- In KDM, you need to select the 'CUSTOM' session profile in order
to have your .xsession executed. This is particularly important if
you're using the aegypten tools
(http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/aegypten-kmail.php).
- We have started making more parts of the ports optional. In kdepim,
both Kandy and KPilot can be turned off with ports-knobs. This
process will continue in the 3.2 series.

qpage[68438]: cannot access QueueDir(/var/spool/qpage): No such file or directory
qpage[68438]: cannot chdir to QueueDir(/var/spool/qpage): No such file or directory
In short:
1) qpage looks for its configuration file in /etc instead of /usr/local/etc
2) It setuid()'s to a user (daemon) without permission to access /var/spool/lock
but does not document this anywhere outside of the source.
3) It's queue directory is not created by installing the port.

patch involved patching the core auto* routines in KDE to accept the
PTHREAD_* variables in the environment, with fallbacks. We decided the
easiest way to implement this in ports was to generate configure instead
of risking incorrect generation at port configure time.
Said patch has already been committed to HEAD in KDE and as such will be
removed with the 3.2 upgrade once it is released.
Ports using Makefile.kde that shouldn't be using them (i.e. non-KDE
modules) have this support commented out due to lack of patch.
