e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.

a side effect of changing current operation level and sysmouse(4) lets
you open /dev/sysmouse multiple times unlike other mouse drivers.
- Check if /dev/mouse is linked to /dev/psm0 or /dev/ums0.
- Simplify the patches a little while I am here.
Extended PS/2 protocol without moused(8) is only supported from FreeBSD 7.1
and above.
- Try default PS/2 and USB mouse ports if /dev/sysmouse does not exist.
Previously, it was only available when HAL support was compiled in.
They should be able to handle SysMouse protocol at operation level 1.
- Check protocol for ums(4) as it only supports SysMouse protocol.
- Sync X server with mouse driver.

- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libglut since the shlib
version number went from 4 to 3.
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libXaw as libXaw.so.8 isn't
installed anymore.
- Couple of ports fixes (mostly missing xorg components added to USE_XORG).
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op
Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:
= pkg-plist changed (due to the ugly CONFIGURE_TARGET prefix in * executables)

- science/abinit

Since psm has gained write(2) support, it can be directly driven by X.org

- Do not probe /dev/psm0 as SysMouse if HAL support is enabled.
- Add /dev/ums0 as SysMouse if HAL support is disabled.
- Do not force sysmouse(4) mode unless device is /dev/sysmouse. When
moused(8) is not running, current mode level is untouched.
- Correcly check if moused is actually running. Checking pid file is
not enough because it may be /var/run/moused.<device>.pid when it is
invoked by devd(8) for USB mice.
- Do not attach device if it is opened by moused.
- Correctly add device path for HAL.
This patch is tested with many possible combinations of moused(8), HAL,
PS/2 mouse, USB mouse, and xorg.conf.

We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.
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

Porters Handbook.

NO_SUID_XSERVER to disable this. The end result is same as it was before
with x11/wrapper installed as the code from there is included in X

x11/wrapper from meta port for above reasons. [1]

- Improve hang detection on r128s. (may improve speed in DRI, too)
- Avoid a hang on server regen on r128 with DRI.
