Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency

New port: konwert

Konwert is a package for conversion between various character encodings.

By encodings author imply not only different charsets like Windows-1252,
KOI8-R or UTF-8 but also the different representations of characters like
TeX escaping, quoted-printable and even RFC 1345 mnemonics. The autodetect
of the encodings is also implemented.

There are also filter filterm which allow to make separate input and output
conversions of the encodings for the given command. It can help e.g. when
our terminal is unable to display non-ASCII characters or to enter them
from the keyboard.
