to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.7.0 (2003-10-22)
------------------------------------------------
* Long file operations no longer block GPA, so several operations can be
run at the same time. This also means GPA does not freeze while an operation
runs, leading to a more responsive interface.
* The keyring editor now displays all the subkeys of the currently selected
key. This is only visible if GPA is in advanced mode (available from the
preferences dialog).
* The capabilities of a key (certify, sign, encrypt) are now visible from
the keyring editor.
* The keyring editor can now sort keys by any column. By default, they are
listed in the order they were imported into the keyring (i.e. the same order
as "gpg --list-keys").
* The key list is now displayed while it is being filled, allowing for
faster startup times.
* A warning dialog is now displayed when an operation slows down due to
gpg rebuilding the trust database.
* Imports and exports from files and servers have been separated into
different dialogs and menu options.
* Invoking GPA with file names as arguments will open those files in the
file manager.
* Cosmetical and minor fixes to the file manager window.
* GPA now remembers the brief/detailed setting view and restores it
when GPA is started.
* Removed all deprecated widgets. GPA is now pure GTK+ 2.2.
* Fixed a hang on startup on PowerPC machines.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.6.1 (2003-01-29)
------------------------------------------------

* Keys' expiration dates can be choosen by clicking on a calendar.
* The key generation dialogs have been revamped to use GTK+2 stock widgets.

* Revoked user names are properly treated. They are not displayed, save in
the details notebook, and then they are clearly marked as revoked.
* GPA now uses the standard GTK+ file selection dialog.
* Added Swedish translation.
* Many other bugfixes, including several portability issues.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.6.0 (2002-12-24)
------------------------------------------------
* GPA now supports GnuPG 1.2 or later, thanks to it's use of GPGME.
* All the user preferences are set from a single dialog, and automatically
saved in gpa.conf, including the default keyserver and the use of
advanced/simple UI mode.
* The `--advanced-ui' command line options has been removed, as it is
available within the program itself.
* The new `-f' and `-k' options can be used to launch the keyring editor,
the file manager, or both on startup.
* All the user ID's in a key are now displayed in the `Details' section, and
in most dialogs.
* Key signatures are now displayed individually for each User ID, or in a
global listing for the key.
* The usual `Copy' and `Paste' commands can be used to import and export keys
from the clipboard.
* The `Edit key' option is now only available for private keys. Setting the
ownertrust of a key is now an independent operation.
* After every import operation, the user is informed of how many keys have
been imported.
* Errors or keyserver operations are now reported to the user.
* The `Verify file' dialog has been completely revamped to allow
verification of several files at the same time.
* Added Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch and Spanish translations.
* The user interface has been updated to use GTK+ 2.0 and stock items.
Noteworthy changes in version 0.5.0 (2002-02-25)
------------------------------------------------
* The file selection dialog has been significantly changed from the
standard GTK+ file selection dialog to look more like what users
of MS-Windows are accustomed to.
* "Show Details" in the menu of the file manager is now named
"Verify Signatures", and it is now accessible through an icon in
the tool bar, too.
* Keyserver access via a direct HTTP request now allows for
searching for keys on keyservers.
* GPAPA's output is now gettext()ified.
* The standard key is now remembered in `gpa.conf'.
* The "Sign File" dialog has been simplified.
* The creation of a backup copy of your public and private keys
works now. It is remembered in `gpa.conf'. If a backup does not
yet exist, the user is asked at startup to create one.
* GPA now has a nice icon in the upper left corner of its window. :-)
* Many bugfixes (for instance: crashes when signing files and keys,
handling of spaces in file names, etc.).
* Makefiles do contain `-mwindows' now to suppress the console
window.
* The "Help" menus is now called "Info". The license is displayed
in the (unofficial) German translation now. (This should be
improved to honor "locale" settings.)
* GPA is now ready to compile with GTK+ version 2 once it is
released.
* In the key manager, there are now menu entries for key operations.
* A secret key without a matching public key is now warned about.
* Keys now can be imported from and exported to the MS Windows
clipboard.
* Secret keys can be imported now.
* When a key is generated, a passphrase which is too stupid is
warned about.
* There now is an icon in the tool bar to switch from the keyring
manager to the file manager.
* GPA can now be compiled using a standard GNU toolchain.
In particular it can be cross-compiled from GNU/Linux to
mingw32/MS-Windows (which is what we did for the GnuPP CD),
or compiled natively under MS-Windows using CygWin.
* The list of keyservers is now read form the file "keyservers" in the
GPA configuration directory which by default is ~/.gnupg. The new
option keyserver may be used in the gpa.conf file to select the
default keyserver - it implictly adds this server to the list of
keyservers.
