Based on PR 30397 by Cameron Patrick, I modify to adapt to recent pkgsrc tree and update from 1.85 to 1.86. GNU Units can convert quantities expressed in one unit to an equivalent in a difference scale. Compared to traditional BSD implementations, it offers more units, non-linear conversions (e.g. between degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit), a more lenient input parser, and tab completion. It can also be used to perform calculations taking physical units into account, and provide the definitions of units (e.g. "joule = N m = 1 kg m^2 / s^2").
