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
sorely disappointed.

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).
the distfile was renamed (only the EXTRACT_SUFX changed and it still has
the same content and checksum).
- Some cleanup, no longer chmod(8) the distfile in DISTDIR executable
without reason and add a do-build target to brandelf(1) the binaries
instead of doing this in the do-install target so that the binaries in
WRKDIR actually can be used after a `make all` run.

"The Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) is a powerful command line driven
package management system capable of installing, uninstalling,
verifying, querying, and updating computer software packages. Each
software package consists of an archive of files along with information
about the package like its version, a description, and the like.
There is also a related API ("Application Program Interface"),
permitting advanced developers to bypass 'shelling out' to a command
line, and to manage such transactions from within a native coding
language.

4.0.4 was chosen because:
. The only newer version available as a tarball (4.1) is buggy.
. This version closely corresponds to our current default linux_base.
. This version uses the version of popt we have in the tree (unfortunately
it uses an earlier version of beecrypt).
. This version is a lot less work to port than 4.2 (elfutils).
However, I am considering how best this port could be updated to a more
recent version (e.g. 4.1.1 or 4.2, probably the latter).
This wasn't an update to the current rpm port as I haven't done enough
testing of other ports that use rpm with it.
Tested on 4.9/i386, 5.2/sparc64 and 5.2/alpha.
Maybe ruby 1.6 will be supported again, but for the moment mark this
port IGNORE when it is being built with ruby 1.6.

UPX is a free, portable, extendable, high-performance executable
packer for several different executable formats. It achieves an
excellent compression ratio and offers very fast decompression.
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.
