In da36e63724 a dependency on qt5-declarative was made
available in kf5-kconfig. This leads to the generation of
further desktop files in some of the Gear ports.
KDE Gear 21.12 has landed and comes with a massive number of updates and
new versions of applications and libraries. Literally, dozens of classic
KDE everyday tools and the specialised sophisticated apps you use to
work, be creative and play, are getting refreshers with design
improvements, new features and performance and stability enhancements.

Qt testlib was implicitly a dependency for the build (tests are
mandatory), not listed in the port. Dropping testlib from quazip
changed the dependency tree.
Not bumping PORTREVISION, because the after the previous bump
it couldn't have built.
PR: 260298
Reported by: Eric Camachat
Release notes are here:
https://github.com/stachenov/quazip/releases/tag/v1.2
There are a handful of internal changes that don't affect us
(allowing QtZip, for instance) or don't show up in our use of
quazip (-lz in pkgconfig file). There's one relevant change
to close() that **might** affect consumers, but then I'd expect
bug reports from the consumers about failures on load/save.
While here, move the libraries needed only for testing to _build.
Bumping PORTREVISION of consumers.

Some KDE Gear applications set a different version for the
shared library than the rest of them. Those ports manually
overwrote the variable used in the plist sub.
Make them use a kde.mk defined value, so that only one place
needs to be changed on updates.

The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").
Many CONFLICTS definitions used patterns like "bash-[0-9]*" to filter
for the bash package in any version. But that pattern is functionally
identical with just "bash".

The extension-helpers package includes convenience helpers to assist
with building Python packages with compiled C/Cython extensions. It

PyERFA is the Python wrapper for the ERFA library (Essential Routines for
Fundamental Astronomy), a C library containing key algorithms for astronomy,
which is based on the SOFA library published by the International Astronomical
Union (IAU). All C routines are wrapped as Numpy universal functions, so
that they can be called with scalar or array inputs.

Google Earth needs version 7.1.8 or later required to run[1] since October 2020.
In order to update the port we need _at least_ linux ports for:
* libproxy
* gstreamer
* gstreamer-plugin-base
* libmodman
* orc
But in the end it fails at runtime because our linuxolator glibc is too old
(GLIBC_2.17 vs GLIBC_2.18).

- Update GNU Astronomy Utilities to the latest version 0.16
- Use `install-strip' so that installed library gets stripped
- Do not try to run the tests across entire source code, they
are confined to a single subdirectory (makes the build log
less noisy)

Enforce gtk3 to depend on gtk-update-icon-cache (previously it was

PHD2 is telescope guiding software that simplifies the process of tracking a
guide star, letting you concentrate on other aspects of deep-sky imaging or
spectroscopy.

A Graphical program to Manage, Configure, Launch, and Monitor an INDI
WebManager on OS X, Linux and FreeBSD
What it does:
- Allows easy and extensive configuration of the options for an INDI Web
Manager and an INDI server.
- Makes it easy to set up a Stand alone INDI Server on OS X.
- Allows the setup of an INDI Web Manager on an OS X machine (which was
formerly VERY difficult)
- Provides a GUI interface for Starting, Stoping, Accessing, Configuring, and
Monitoring an INDI Web Manager and INDI Server on OS X and Linux
WWW: https://github.com/rlancaste/INDIWebManagerApp
- An Astrometric Plate Solver for Mac, Linux, and Windows, built on
Astrometry.net and SEP (sextractor)
- Meant to be an internal library for use in a program like KStars for internal
plate solving on all supported operating systems
- Python is not required for the library
- Netpbm is not required for the library
- Internal Library, so calls to external programs are not required
- No Astrometry.cfg file is needed, the settings are internal to the program
- Directly loads the image data into SEP and then takes the generated xy-list
internally from Sextractor into astrometry.net, so there is no need to save
any files.
- No temporary files need to be created for solving and no WCS file needs to be
created to read the solved information. Although astrometry.net does monitor
for the creation of 2 files indicating that a field is solved or a cancel was
made, so these are created for now.
- The Index Files are still required for solving images, but the program or the
user can specify the folder locations rather than putting them in the config
file.

KDE Gear 21.04
Thursday, 22 April 2021
Welcome to KDE Gear ⚙️ 21.04!
KDE produces literally dozens of apps for work, play, education, and
creativity. Kontact, for example, gives you control over all your email,
contact, and agenda; Itinerary keeps you up to date with everything you
need regarding your trips; the KAlgebra graphing calculator works
equally well on your desktop and your phone; Cantor provides you with an
intuitive way of analyzing data and graphing the results; and Kdenlive
makes cutting and building sophisticated-looking videos not only easy,
but fun as well.
These are but a few of the apps releasing new updates today. When
combined with the KDE’s powerful Plasma desktop, they provide you with
most, if not all, the tools you need to be productive in a versatile and
flexible Linux^WFreeBSD environment.
But you don’t even need to run Linux! Many of the apps in this
announcement work on Windows, macOS, and Android as well. This is what
convergent means for KDE: use your favorite apps anywhere, on any
system, on your work computer, mobile or even on your TV!
And, remember: KDE’s apps, the Plasma desktop, Plasma Mobile, Plasma
BigScreen and all the rest of KDE’s software are free and open source.
No licensing, no hidden costs, no spying. Share them with your friends,
install them at work, or use them in your school lab. It is your
software to enjoy where and how you want.
