Xscreensaver will run several programs to continuously update the screen instead
of going blank. You can specify the programs and their arguments using
resources. You can also add dpms (power saver) options.
Xscreensaver will make use of any installed OpenGL libraries, such as Mesa (also
in the ports collection).
The client-server model employed by xscreensaver make it a superior choice to
xlock, since no separate auto-locking program is needed. It's also extremely
easy to add new programs like xearth, or any other program that can fill the
root window as additional screensavers.
===> The following configuration options are available for xscreensaver-6.17:
FIREF=off: Add extra port x11/fireflies
NLS=on: Native Language Support
NSFW=off: Include material that is Not Safe For Work
SETUID_HACKS=off: Install sonar hack suid so it can ping
WAYLAND=off: Wayland (graphics) support

XEARTH=off: Add extra port astro/xearth
XMOUN=off: Add extra port graphics/xmountains
XPLANET=off: Add extra port astro/xplanet
XSNOW=off: Add extra port x11/xsnow
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Affects: users of x11/xscreensaver on 13.1-RELEASE
Author: zirias@FreeBSD.org
Reason:
With the update to 6.04, xscreensaver now uses security/unix-selfauth-helper
for PAM authentication. This relies on pam_exec.so, which had a bug causing
a segfault on authentication attempts prior to 13.1-RELEASE-p1. For details,
please see
https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-22:19.pam_exec.asc
Make sure your system is fully upgraded, otherwise you might be unable to
unlock your screen.

gnome.mk: rename gdkpixbuf2 to gdkpixbuf to prepare for port move
The GTK 1-based gdk-pixbuf has not existed for some time.
No functional or package changes.
x11/xscreensaver: Further clean up
Accidentally pushed an excessive patch for configure.ac which also
included changes done with REINPLACE_CMD, fix this. Check the remaining
patches to configure.ac, turns out none of this is required any more, so
remove it. Therefore also remove USES=autoreconf.
intltool is still required though, it's used to create the
xscreensaver.desktop file. Upstream also ships a broken
po/Makefile.in.in, recreate this by manually calling intltoolize when
NLS is set.
No changes to the resulting package, therefore no PORTREVISION bump.
x11/xscreensaver: Adopt and clean up
Take maintainership as discussed with manu via email. Also clean up:
- Remove USES=desktop-file-utils again, the desktop files don't register
any MIME types
- Add USES=shebangfix to fix the perl shebang, remove manual patching
- Remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE, parallel builds seem to work just fine
- Format according to portclippy recommendations
- Update local patches

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

x11/xscreensaver: Remove PAM option
Upstream ./configure now fails with --without-pam if PAM is found on the
build system with this message:
Your system seems to have PAM, but PAM is not being used.
That is probably not going to work out well.
We have PAM in base and can't build base without it any more
(WITHOUT_PAM is deprecated), so let's just remove that port option and
always build xscreensaver with PAM (previously enabled by default).
With PAM enforced, support for shadow passwords is not needed. Forcing
it to off, we can avoid installing xscreensaver-auth suid root.

This should make sure that all dependent ports will pick
up the new version commited with a13ec21cd733f67a9fc0dc00ab45268bdc236246
*/*: Remove redundant '-[0-9]*' from CONFLICTS
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").
Many CONFLICTS definitions used patterns like "bash-[0-9]*" to filter
for the bash package in any version. But that pattern is functionally
identical with just "bash".

NEW XORG ON FREEBSD 9-STABLE AND 10-STABLE
This update switches over to use the new xorg stack by default on FreeBSD 9
and 10 stable, on osversions where vt(9) is available.
It is still possible to use the old stack by specifying WITHOUT_NEW_XORG in
/etc/make.conf .
FreeBSD 8-STABLE and released versions of FreeBSD still use
the old version.
A package repository with binary packages for new xorg will
be available soon.
This patch also contains updates of libxcb and related ports, pixman, as well
