Daemon that monitors one or more GPSes attached to a host computer

gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes 
attached to a host computer through serial or USB ports, 
making all data on the location/course/velocity of the 
sensors available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the 
host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications 
(such as navigational and wardriving software) can share 
access to GPSes without contention or loss of data. Also, 
gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially 
easier to parse than the NMEA 0183 emitted by most GPSes.

- Update to 3.4

Submitted by:   glebius (maintainer)

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

- Update to 3.3

Submitted by:   glebius (maintainer)

- Update to 3.2

Submitted by:   glebius (maintainer)

- Project moved from berlios to savannah, change MASTER_SITES and WWW
- Distfile was rerolled along the way, changes are some defines
  (HAVE_DAEMON, HAVE_LIBRT, HAVE_DBUS, REVISION) in generated files,
  which are rewritten in the build process anyway

Approved by:    glebius (maintainer)

- Fix parallel build

Reported by:    marck
Approved by:    glebius (maintainer, implicit)

- Update to 3.1
- Unbreak build on 7.0
- Unbreak some options

Approved by:    glebius (maintainer implicit)

- Update to 3.0

Submitted by:   glebius@ (maintainer via private email)
Reworked by:    myself

Remove painful examples of foo="", with particular prejudice against
constructions that parse out to [ -z "$foo" ] && foo=""

These are bad examples that get copied and pasted into new code, so the
hope is that with less bad examples there will be less need for me to
bring this up in review.

In a few of these files all that were changed were comments so that next
time I search for these patterns I won't trip on the file for no reason.

In a few places, add $FreeBSD$

No functional changes, so no PORTREVISION bumps
