then automatically generate a PLIST that says "${PKGNAME} has no files".
* If PLIST_SRC and GENERATE_PLIST are not set in a package Makefile,
and no PLIST files exist, then fail during the package build with
PKG_FAIL_REASON.
* Remove "intentionally empty" PLISTs again.
Now, the easy way to say that a package installs no files is to just
add the following to the package Makefile:
PLIST_SRC= # empty
that directly manipulate empty PLISTs.
Modify plist/plist.mk so that if the PLIST files are missing and no
GENERATE_PLIST is defined, then the package fails to build.
(new) UNPRIVILEGED_GROUPS list.
In addition, the value of UNPRIVILEGED_GROUPS is defaulted to all the
groups the installing user is a member of, in a similar mold to
UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP and UNPRIVILEGED_USER.
This allows non-root installations of packages that have special group
requirements but no special user requirements, so long as the installation
user has been given the necessary group membership.

usually the same on the supported platforms.
The reason for having duplicate code in these files is to make it easier
to port pkgsrc to a new platform: You just have to copy one of the
existing platform files and edit the values in it. With some values
factored out, you would have to look at one more file.

platforms, mainly because it wouldn't have made sense to document the
variables in one of those files, but they need to be documented
somewhere.
Added the file defaults.mk, which now serves as the reference document
which provides useful default values and _explains_ the variables.
using the += operator, not the simple = operator, in mk.conf. That way
we can mark packages as having open source licenses without disturbing
the users.
separating LOWER_OPSYS and LOWER_OPSYS_VERSUFFIX, since numbers are now
removed from LOWER_OPSYS when forming MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM.
Fix the remaining to platforms: Interix and IRIX.

When assigning GNU_MACHINE_PLATFORM, strip numerical characters from
LOWER_OPSYS. (final component is eg. osf5.1 not osf15.1)
installed by devel/ccache can be used. This is especially important for
cross-builds.
Documented IGNORE_CCACHE.
Fixed the double use of the directory ${WRKDIR}/.ccache, which was used
both as wrapper directory and as cache directory.
Remember .include "foo.mk" is looked for (first) in the directory that
contains the makefile being processed (like in C), so remove all the
${.PARSEDIR} and ../ sequences that just cause grief.
can be disabled to remove the behavior again.
In spite of UW's "recommendations" against enabling this, it should be up
to the sysadmin and user whether to use the rope to build a bridge or
hang him/herself. PC-Pine has it enabled by default; there's no reason
besides FUD to make the Un*x build any different.
the application if it uses dlopen().
This change was triggered by the longstanding bug that mod_perl (due to
perl itself) was built with threads but apache was not, thus leading
to incompatibility between apache and mod_perl.
Whether NetBSD 4 needs to be added as well is still an open question.
Hey Joerg, since you made the non-modular Xorg obsolete, you could have
at least changed the comments in this file, reflecting the change to
modular Xorg.
Now, please document here how these files are really meant to be used,
since you know it better than me.
