it must be unconditionally built and installed.
(when building the py-docutils package while already having it installed,
setup.py excluded the module, causing PLIST breakage with USE_DESTDIR=yes)
Use "pkg_info -Q" to extract PKGPATH from installed packages instead of
"pkg_info -B" coupled with awk magic. The previous regexp didn't account
for packages that have PREV_PKGPATH set, and blew up while replacing
for example mail/sylpheed and multimedia/ffmpeg.
* Only convert exact dicts to a QVariantMap and back and not dict
sub-classes.
* Removed an assertion when building dynamic meta-objects, instead just
ignore the attribute if it doesn't have the expected type.
* Fixed the handling of QWizard by pyuic.
* Changed the SIP dependency to v4.8.1 (not necessary but we don't want it
to survive in the wild).
* Changed the roadmap to show how incompatible APIs will be selected.
* Fixed __str__ for QByteArray for Python v3 so it is consistent with
Python v2.
* Reverted the roadmap change about __hash__ being an incompatibile change.
The issue isn't that the hash function has changed (which isn't considered
a compatibility problem) it's that different objects that previously had a
different hash value (based on their id()) now might have the same hash
value.
* Updated the roadmap to show that the __hash__ additions (including QUrl)
are not now considered incompatible changes.
* Removed the Python v3 buffer protocol support for QString.
* Improved the implementation of the Python v3 buffer protocol for QByteArray.
* Fixed a pyuic problem with Python v3 when setting the tab order.
* Added /Transfer/ to QComboBox.setLineEdit().
* Added /KeepReference/ to setValidator() and setCompleter() for QLineEdit
and QComboBox.
* Added the missing setCoordinateMode() and coordinateMode() methods from
QGradient.
Changes in 3.18.1 since 3.18:
* Fixed the handwritten code for all QDomDocument.setContent() overloads
which was using deprecated (and now removed) sipBuildResult() format
characters.
* Fixed a build problem that affected Python v2.5 and earlier.
Changes in 3.18 since 3.17.6:
* Removed some compiler warning messages.
* Reverted the changes that removed the use of sipSelfWasArg in handwritten
code.
* Tweaked configure.py so that Python3 can run just enough of it to display
an error message.
* Fixed a regression in emitting Python signals to Qt signals.
* Handwritten code changes for the removal of the sipProtectVirt_*() methods.
* Fixed a build problem with the GPL version.
* Refactored the signla/slot support.
* Safety checking of latest signal/slot refactoring.
* Safety commit of the PyQt3-specific meta-type and super-type (just stubs
at the moment).
* Use the %Plugin directive to enable PyQt3 signal support.
* More changes to the QObject.sender() support.
* Updated the QObject::sender() support in response to sip changes.
* Moved the last of the type parsing from sip.
* The type parsing now uses sipResolveTypedef().
* Added the type parsing support from the sip module as PyQt4 no longer uses
it.
* Replaced sipFindConnection() with sipFindSlot().
* Replaced sipFreeConnection() with sipFreeSipslot().
* Changes required by recent changes to the Qt support API.
* Compatibility changes needed for SIP v4.8.
* Merged the v3.17 maintenance branch into the trunk.
* Made some char* in handwritten code const needed by SIP v4.8.
* Fixed the reference count handling of a module in the error paths when
initialising it.
* Added support for (vaguely) defining private assignment operators to
suppress the generation of PyQt4 assignment helpers.
* Fixed a regression in the creation of new exceptions.
* Various changes (including bumping the major version number of the C API)
to accomodate the design of the API selection support. The implementation
should not need any further data structure changes.
* Fixed a code generation bug when an /ArraySize/ argument was typedef'ed.
* Fixed sipResolveTypedef().

If try to workaround that get build failures in rrtransform.h
or runtime problem:
Xorg: Undefined PLT symbol "pixman_transform_init_identity" (symnum = 1603)
such, but DragonFly is): ${SETUID_ROOT_PERMS} doesn't work for suid
kgrantpty, because the locate() method used to find the path to the binary
expects it to have a read permissions set.

- Change in default behavior: Use DateTime's truncate method
to reset time components. Inspired by [rt #43468 - Clayton
L. Scott] and suggestions from others.
- Updating package of p5 module Devel::Declare from 0.005002 to
0.005005
- Adjusting license according to META.yaml

- Updating package of p5 module Catalyst::Component::ACCEPT_CONTEXT
from 0.06 to 0.07
- Use Module::Install as module type
- Adjusting license according to META.yaml
Upstream changes:
0.07 11 June 2009
Fix tests with Catalyst 5.80005
- Updating package for p5 module Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication
from 0.10011 to 0.10012
- Adjusting license according to META.yaml
- Use Module::Install as module type
Upstream changes:
0.10012 Sat Jun 6 10:58:43 BST 2009
- Add Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::Remote which authenticates you
directly from environment variables passed by your web server. This
allows the use of SSL client certificates, NTLM, or just basic/digest
auth done at the web server level to be used to authenticate users
to your Catalyst application (kmx)
- Tests for this
- Change ->config invocations to be best practices (t0m)
- Note about session auto-vification even when use_session is set
to false (robert).
- Note about how a realms key used to be needed to unconfuse people
running an old version, but browsing the docs on search.cpan (ruoso)

- Adjusting dependencies according to META.yaml
Upstream changes:
1.18 2009-06-10 17:43:12
- The forking restarter was not waiting for the child to exit,
which could lead to a race condition. If the old child did
not exit before the new child tried to bind to its socket,
it would find the old child blocking the port it wanted.
- More fixes for the Win32 restarter. It was effectively
ignoring all command-line options except those related to
the restarter itself.
