Sergei Kolobov 07a7de4337 - configure squid to run under a dedicated "squid" user by default; make use
of SQUID_{UID,GID} which other squid-related ports already implemented.
  The user/group will be created on the fly if they do not already exist.
- introduce WITH_SQUID_LDAP_AUTH to pull in the necessary bits to compile and
  use the ldap_auth helper
- install some more authentication helper applications by default
- install helper applications to ${PREFIX}/libexec/squid instead of
  ${PREFIX}/libexec, add notes about it in pkg-install and pkg-descr
- cleanup the pre-installation tasks and move them from Makefile and pkg-plist
  into the pkg-install script; make 'make install' and 'pkg_add' actually do
  the same thing
- introduce a pkg-deinstall script
- make squid.sh rcNG compatible (when either /etc/rc_subr or
  ${PREFIX}/etc/rc_subr is present, the first one will be used, otherwise the
  script will work as a "rc classic" script so no additional dependency on
  the rc_subr port should be needed)
- some Makefile cleanups:
  + the squid installation procedure now correctly strips binaries, so there
    is no need to do this manually anymore
  + generate those parts of pkg-plist dynamically that may be affected by user
    set tunables (currently the localized error pages and helper applications)
  + document the available configuration options in a slightly different style
  + remove some obsolete variable declarations and comments
  + honor NOPORTDOCS
- add CONFLICTS
- add another vendor patch, see
  http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=890 for a thorough
  explanation of what has been fixed.
- since we can no longer take the presence of Lithuanian error pages for
  granted, wrap the workaround for the errorpages.patch with '.if exists()'
- bump PORTREVISION

This is the Squid Internet Object Cache developed by the National
Laboratory for Applied Networking Research (NLANR) and Internet
volunteers. This software is freely available for anyone to use.
This software is based on the Harvest Object Cache developed by
the University of Colorado and the University of Southern California.
The Harvest home page is http://harvest.cs.colorado.edu/.
ARPA funding for the Harvest project has ended, the squid project has
continued development of the cache where Harvest finished.
Please see this port's Makefile for a list of compilation options.
*** UPDATE NOTICE ***
Starting from Version 2.5.4_6 the default user:group changed from
nobody:nogroup to squid:squid. You can restore the old behavior
of this port by specifying SQUID_UID=nobody SQUID_GID=nogroup in
your make environment. Helper applications are now installed to
$PREFIX/libexec/squid instead of $PREFIX/libexec, too.
You can find further information on the project's website at
