makes the NetBSD kernel stop whining about file descriptor 0 being
closed when netstat gets run. The script contains everything you
don't want to know.

Changes:
Netscape 7.01 offers a set of new features as well as minor stability
and performance enhancements. These new features include optional
Popup Controls that can be set within Preferences. Also, it adds
the ability to view several tabbed pages as your home page experience.
In addition, Netscape 7.01 offers enhancements to mail for AOL
members who use the application to manage their mail, including
the ability to unsend, check status and mark mail as unread. This
release also has increased control in managing certificates. If a
web site displays a certificate from a certificate authority you
don't know, you now have the opportunity to accept or reject the
certificate.
Also remove the need to set the "Destination Directory" by hand when installing.
This allows the the user to choose 'custom' as an installation method
as well as 'complete' or 'recommended'. This obsoletes the NS_INST
variable and reduces likeliness of errors due to not properly set PKG_LANG.
Some more re-organizing wrt Linux-emul root etc: the installer behaves
differently according to who runs 'make'. (Try to) clean up parts of
the emul root if it was used, too.
These changes should help address some of the issues pointed out in
PR pkg/18606 and PR pkg/18615.
as discussed on pkgsrc-changes. Sorry everybody for the mess, this
(hopefully) was the last episode of netscape7's big PLIST/distinfo-shuffle
(aka 'why-cvs-really-should-have-a-mv-command').
a variable (PKG_LANG), adding and modifying PLISTs and distinfo's as necessary.
- Do not use the installer as the distfile, but the "real" distfile.
This increases the initial download time, but allows for building without
a network connection. As suggested by grant in PR pkg/18461
- Only try to pax over files from the linux-emul root if they were
created in there. This should address PR pkg/18461 by grant.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Newclient suite version 7.0, now including AIM and ICQ clients etc. It is run
under Linux emulation on NetBSD.
At the moment, this package is only for NetBSD-*-i386 and Linux-*-i[3-6]86.
