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.
make does not understand the "W" option in :C modifiers, and it
handles substitution in strings containing spaces somwheat differently.
Bump PKGREVISION.
variable name that can change between autoconf versions, just set
VARNAME, which should always be correct.
Also, note that inn needs yacc to build, and uses gzip in the installed
scripts. Bump the PKGREVISION to 4.

### SECURITY BUGFIXES
- Fetchnews did not detect timeouts while it was downloading an article
header, which malicious upstream servers could exploit to mount
a denial of service attack against the fetchnews client. See
leafnode-SA-2005-02.txt. CVE Name: CAN-2005-1911
### BUGFIXES
- Bugfix sed expression in makesubst script. (Reported by Jeff Zacharias.)
### CHANGES
- texpire now tags the message.id expired count with "message.id" rather
than "total:" to avoid misleading the user who assumes that "total:"
would have to be the sum of the group counts. See also the FAQ change
below. SourceForge bug #1215453.
- When debugmode and verbose mode are set, leafnode programs now print a
warning to stdout that the user should check syslog.conf and the
syslog output rather than the screen print for debugging and sleeps for
three seconds.
### DOCUMENTATION
- Add FAQ entry to explain discrepancies between texpire group counts
and message.id expired articles counts.
- Add FAQ entry to explain influence of Gnus' gnus-read-active-file
setting on lost subscriptions, and extend stop fetchnews from
unsubscribing FAQ. Debian bug #307685.
- Drop FAQ entry on license issues as some parts of leafnode are in fact
GPLd.
- Drop FAQ entry on why old articles aren't posted, obsolete since
1.9.33.
- INSTALL and INSTALL_de have been polished.
- Add a hint that syslog.conf must be edited to config.example.
- leafnode(8) mentions that LIST ACTIVE keeps an existing subscription
fresh. CVS:

* Fix segfault when timeout or connection reset encountered while
article header is read.
* fetchnews will no longer re-fetch the active file for a server if it
has been completely received even if fetching articles from this server
encounters a problem. Long-standing bug. Debian bug #70052.
* fetchnews will now properly mark the active for complete re-fetch if
it says so. Previously, it forgot the mark in some circumstances. A
problem fetching the active file or descriptions for a newly added
server will now mark the active for re-fetch even if articles have
successfully been retrieved from the same server.
* Fix use-after-free segfault when server dies while body is being
received.
* Support quoted strings on the right hand side of configuration lines.
* Support IPv6 in fetchnews as well.
* In LIST ACTIVE/GROUP, keep group interesting in spite of being
pseudo (which includes empty) as long as it is interesting. Avoids
unsubscription of low-traffic groups that fall empty.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

Update to 0.27.1 version.
Changes from ChangeLog:
2004-12-20 v0.27.1:
* Fix error in configure script when printing exceptions not found message, du
e to unquoted string. (Reported by M.J. Soft)
* Fix -G* when NGETCACHE != NGETHOME. (Reported by Steven Adeff)
* Fix midinfo and newsgroups files not honoring NGETCACHE/cachedir setting. (R
eported by Christian Marillat)
* Allow absolute paths in --text=mbox:<filename>. (Requested by Volker Wysk)
* Support tab as the field separator in XPAT results, for Newsplex server supp
ort. (Requested by Mark Blain)
* -a no longer gives an error if the server doesn't support LIST NEWSGROUPS(wh
ich retrieves newsgroup descriptions.)
* Fix printing a warning when loading newsgroups list which contains descripti
ons of groups which no server actually carries. (Reported by Frederick Bruckman)
* Fix problems loading group descriptions from newsgroups list which contain t
abs. (Reported by Frederick Bruckman)
and no taker for updating the package.
Code has diverged a lot, so making a new package for the program is probably
the same (or less) work as starting from this version.
under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).
0. Bug fixes include:
* slrnpull's download statistics should work correctly in offline mode.
* slrn crashed on some operating systems when posting.
* slrn crashed when trying to decode base64 encoded articles without body.
* Don't destroy soft links / multiple hard links when writing newsrc file.
* Always apply scoring rules in the order given in the scorefile.
* When reading cross-posts, slrn sometimes marked additional articles in
the other group(s) as read (Joerg Lueders).
* slrnpull no longer posts backup copies (*~) of files you edited manually
in the out.going directory.
* slrnpull tries to write .headers files on interrupts.
* The "Has-Body" scoring field sometimes did not work correctly.
* When retrieving article children, headers without body were not marked.
* Ignore signature delimiters in verbatim text blocks.
* Do not choke on long header lines when replying by email.
* A workaround for a bug in INN caused problems with leafnode; only use it
when the server was recognized as INN from the logon message.
* Fixed crash when running in wide terminals (John E. Davis)
* Email address parser is more RFC2822 compliant
1. In the config file (and the corresponding intrinsic functions), the
following names now denote special function keys: <PageUp> <PageDown>
<Up> <Down> <Right> <Left> <Delete> <BackSpace> <Insert> <Home> <End>
<Enter> <Return> <Tab> <Space> <Esc> and <F1> through <F12>
If using these names does not seem to work for you, please make sure your
terminfo settings are correct.
2. In true offline mode, slrnpull can now automatically retrieve bodies of
articles that get a high score value (--fetch-score option).
3. Added Swedish translation (Johan Svedberg)
4. Make hide_pgpsignature hide GnuPGs optional "NotDashEscaped" lines.
