This is an enhancement release that contains a bug fix.
Description of bug:
If synth is launched from mountpoint of the ports directory
(e.g. /usr/ports), it may malfunction with strange messages such
as "invalid origins" and printing strange symbols to the screen
along with parts of a directory.
As a result, Synth now detects this launch location (as it already
did with /usr/local) and refuses to run until the current directory
is changed outside of the ports tree.
Enhancement 1:
It is now possible to remove alternate profiles. When more than
one profile exists, a menu option "<" appears that provides the
user with an opportunity to remove one to all inactive profiles
from the configuration. The man page has been updated as well.
Enhancement 2:
Synth will automatically convert any directory inputs on the
configure command to the true path. For example, if somebody types
in "/usr/xports" for the ports directory, but that's just a
symbolic link to /vcs/freebsd-ports", the entry will automatically
convert to its true resolved path (e.g. /vcs/freebsd-ports). This
enables the cwd detection of the bug fix above to always work.
