4a08198baa Explicitly mention that the PKGREVISION must be incremented when a 
dependency of the package changes. I still have problems with some
packages that depend on GConf2, which doesn't exist anymore. The
dependency has silently changed to GConf, without increasing any
PKGREVISION. Same for gnome-vfs2 and gnome-vfs.

2797f2c4fb Add two new capabilities to the pkginstall framework: 
(1) Allow specifying the numeric UID and GID for users and groups in
    /etc/mk.conf by setting PKG_UID.<user> and PKG_GID.<group> to
    those values.  If these values are specified, then the +USERGROUP
    script will verify that existing users and groups match the
    requested UIDs and GIDs for the package, and otherwise create them
    with these UIDs and GIDs.  For example:

	PKG_UID.courier=	10001
	PKG_GID.mail=		6

    In this example, the courier-authlib binary package will be created
    to use uid 10001 for the "courier" user and gid 6 for the "mail"
    group.

(2) Allow a package to request that users and groups be created prior
    to configuring or building a package by setting USERGROUP_PHASE
    to "configure" or "build".  Because the reason for this is typically
    to hardcode the UIDs and GIDs of requested users and groups directly
    into the package's executables, these hardcoded values will be
    automatically determined and put into the +USERGROUP script.  For
    example:

	USERGROUP_PHASE=	configure

	PKG_GROUPS=	qmail nofiles
	PKG_USERS+=	qmaill:nofiles
	PKG_USERS+=	qmailq:qmail

    In this example, the users and groups are created before the
    configure phase when building qmail, and the qmail binary package's
    +INSTALL script will try to create (or verify) users and groups
    with the same UIDs and GIDs that were used during the build.

As part of these changes, the format for PKG_USERS and PKG_GROUPS has
changed -- the optional parts of the corresponding entries are no
longer used and cannot be specified.  Instead, the following variables
should be set:

        PKG_GID.<group> is the group's numeric GID.
        PKG_UID.<user> is the user's numeric UID.
        PKG_GECOS.<user> is the user's description.
        PKG_HOME.<user> is the user's home directory.
        PKG_SHELL.<user> is the user's login shell.

A separate commit will follow which will fix all packages that set
PKG_USERS and PKG_GROUPS to use the new syntax and variables.

d19161d212 Modify the plist module to automatically transform "^share/locale" in 
PLISTs to "${PKGLOCALEDIR}/locale" for the installed PLIST.  This is
similar to the work that's already done to automatically handle
PKGINFODIR and PKGMANDIR.  PLISTs in pkgsrc will be modified so that
they would just list the message files to be under "share/locale".
USE_PKGLOCALEDIR must continue to be set in package Makefiles so that
localedir substitutions happen at post-configure time.
