gst-plugins0.8 and gst-plugins0.8-* respectively. This is to leave room
for gstreamer 0.10 (which will be added with versioned names too, to avoid
annoying renames in the future).
While here, do some changes:
- Make gstreamer0.8 use the alternatives system to provide the unversioned
gst-* utilities.
- Rename all internal variables to have 0.8 in them to make it clear which
package they belong to.

that these directories will be conditionally removed (based on reference
counts), regardless of the value of PKG_CONFIG. Bump the PKGREVISION
for packages that were modified as a result.
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.

python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth
packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the
thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect
existing installations.
Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
While here, improve handling of files living under PREFIX/libdata: instead
of keeping them in the PLIST, remove them from the deinstallation script;
this way we won't get checksum mismatches (a typical thing when doing "make
replace").
Also remove some compatibility hacks I added before the libtool soname
changes were done (they are useless). And fix PLIST WRT .la files.

- Require glib2>=2.4.0nb1 to get the RTLD_GLOBAL fix.
- Move the plugins database from /var/cache/gstreamer-0.8 to
${PREFIX}/libdata/gstreamer-0.8, because it's intended to be updated
after (de)installation of plugins only.
- Implement a framework to automatically rebuild the plugins database at
(de)install time. This is handled by the simple inclusion of plugins.mk
in package makefiles.
