because of a problem with NetBSD-current libarchive-as-tar, see bin/56080.
Note this depencency is not a burden, since xemacs-packages requires
gtar, anyway.
Augment debug option arguments.
Explicitly select garbage collector.
Set dialogs and widgets to "athena" explicitly.
There are no "lucid" implementations; instead, configure will look for
Motif implementations, and fall back to Athena. The former is prone to
sneak in undeclared dependencies on Motif and (on sole platforms) xft.
Remove the patch that was supposed to fix this, but didn't.
editors/xemacs-current
editors/xemacs-current-nox11
The latter is now just editors/xemacs-current built with a specific set
of options. Changes include:
+ Rename the "xaw" option to "lucid" to match the option name used in
xemacs/options.mk. Also comment out the "esound" option which isn't
fully supported yet. Add some comments to the options.mk file to
make it a little easier to understand.
XXX Should probably add a pgsql option as this version of XEmacs has
XXX some sort of PostgreSQL support. Also need to sort out native
XXX sound support.
+ Remove Makefile.common and move all logic into xemacs-current/Makefile
and xemacs-current/options.mk.
+ As of version 21.5, xemacs switched to using GNU autoconf, so set
GNU_CONFIGURE=yes.
+ Include termcap.buildlink3.mk to properly deal with termcap/curses
issues (xemacs needs termcap). Drop the --without-ncurses setting
as the issue is handled by termcap.buildlink3.mk.
+ Be slightly more aware of ${X11_TYPE} == "modular" by not referring to
${X11BASE} in that case.
+ Include buildlink3.mk files for zlib and gettext, which are detected
automatically if they're in the base system. Gettext is needed for
MULE support.
+ In the Makefile and the PLIST, don't substitute for ${EMACSVER}.
Instead substitute for ${DISTNAME} so the PLIST looks closer to
xemacs/PLIST.
+ Add patch-al which handles a difference between bmake and gmake in
using $< in a makefile target.
+ Support DESTDIR installation by adding INSTALL_MAKE_FLAGS to override
where files are installed during the install phase.
+ Honor PKGMANDIR.
+ Bump the PKGREVISION for xemacs-current and xemacs-current-nox11 to 1.
Both packages now track and use the same PKGREVISION number.
From the ChangeLog:
* XEmacs 21.5.19 "chives" is released.
"chives" is the twentieth in the VEGETABLE series.
Relative to XEmacs 21.5.18 "chestnut", "chives" includes a large
number of minor enhancements and work-in-progress. Some important or
annoying bugs have been fixed:
- The lstream data truncation bug (often observed as truncated emails
or truncated process input in buffers) has been identified and
fixed, we believe (hard to test).
- The bug where process output insertion replaced the whole buffer,
rather than just the region, has been fixed.
- The "Metacity maximize" bug (which was XEmacs's fault, not the
window manager's) has been fixed.
Known remaining bugs include:
- Aborts due to recursive entry to the allocation code from error
handlers. Workaround: avoid getting the memory full warnings (at
75% and 95% of memory space).
- A regression test failure in no-Mule builds. Workaround: don't
run the c-tests.el series when running tests. (Simply move
tests/automated/c-tests.el out of the way.)
Currently fairly stable, this seems to be a good point to release a
beta as a checkpoint. At the user level the most visible changes are
extension of the "behavior" mechanism for enabling and disabling
features, and a major reorganization of the documentation in the
source tree. For behaviors, see the Options->Behaviors submenu.
The source documentation changes include
At top level,
README has been gutted, with most content moved to the FAQ.
BUGS and README.packages were removed, with much of their content
moved to the FAQ.
GETTING.GNU.SOFTWARE was removed.
In etc,
BETA, CHARSETS, CODING-STANDARDS, CODINGS, DEBUG, DISTRIB, MACHINES,
and PACKAGES were removed, with most content moved to various Texinfo
documents.
FTP, GNU, LPF, MAILINGLISTS MORE.STUFF, MOTIVATION, ORDERS,
ORDERS.EUROPE, ORDERS.JAPAN, README.HYPERBOLE, README.OO-BROWSER,
SERVICE, and TERMS were removed.
PROBLEMS and etc/README were revised.
For developers, the following important internal API changes occurred.
- Initialization code (called from emacs.c:main_1()) has been
refactored. See the ChangeLog (2004-10-27, Ben Wing) for details.
- The GCPRO API has been refactored. See the ChangeLog (2004-10-27,
Ben Wing) for details. (Yes, it was a megapatch: same log entry.)
For more detailed information, there is a list of credits, and then
the full ChangeLogs, following the availability information.

community, see our home page,

Remove esound-support from options.mk until i find the reason why
libossaudio is not used.
Fix canna-support with a patch from Thomas Klausner. Thanks.
From the Releasenotes:
Relative to XEmacs 21.5.17 "chayote", "chestnut" has Jerry James's new
bignum support. You can now keep track of the U.S. national debt to
the penny, or count to Avogadro's number by ones! Speaking of really
big numbers, Malcolm Purvis has one in mind: "two". To GTK+ fans,
that's an awfully big number. It's not here yet, but Malcolm has put
in a lot of patches, and a port to GTK+ v2 could start soon. Jerry
James has started using the Uno code checker to clean up unused
variables and other ugliness. Completion of the portable dumper
project is in sight, as Olivier Galibert has contributed code to
attach the dumpfile to the executable.
A large number of contributors have provided the usual assortment of
bug fixes and feature additions, small and large.
Changes excerpted from ${WRKSRC}/CHANGES-beta.
---
Lots of updates from Ben Wing (as always), also from Andy Piper, Mike
Sperber, and Stephen Turnbull with lots of documentation updates and
fixes. One new exciting addition in this release is that the LDAP and
PostgreSQL code has been extracted out of the core C code and moved to
DSO's. We have Jerry James to thank/blame/worship for that.

Changes since 21.5.5 are too many to list here. Please consult www.xemacs.org
for details. There have been mainly hundreds of bug fixes and work has been
done on a new garbage collector which isn't enabled yet. Nothing exitingly
new has been added as far as i know. Mainly internal rework.
This is the *BETA* developement line of XEmacs so handle with care.
This package is based on pkg/14132 contributed by Eric Gillespie Jr.
Most notable change to the release is the possibility to compile
xemacs with gtk+. Set XEMACS_WIDGETS accordingly in your mk.conf
Possible values are:
lucid (default)
gtk
gnome
motif
