BitchX is an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client by Colten Edwards aka
panasync@EFnet, it is based on its predecessors ircII and Epic.
BitchX was originally started as a script by Trench and HappyCrappy for
the popular Unix IRC client ircII. Around Christmas of 1994 the script
was patched directly into the client by Colten Edwards.
BitchX includes features which make it a bot, bouncer, and a friendly
IRC client at the same time.
BitchX is one the most popular IRC clients among Unix systems. It is
highly customizable and capable of running scripts, so it can be used
as an IRC bot too.
===> The following configuration options are available for bitchx-1.2.1_4,1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
IPV6=on: IPv6 protocol support
LANG_HE=off: Hebrew language support
LATIN=off: Recommended for ISO-8859-1 display
PLUGINS=on: Build a handful of BitchX plugins
SSL=on: SSL protocol support
TOGGLES=off: Disable annoyance toggles
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
irc/bitchx: some minor, non-functional changes to the port (+)
Update WWW line, GC no longer needed GNU_CONFIGURE_MANPREFIX, and
simplify the inference of --with-plugins configure switch value.
Try to remove MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE (again): it was readded with commit
b6cc4b7085483 because `chinese/bitchx' slave port was trying to
link `wserv' program before all of its object files were built.
Unfortunately, I could not find the build log from those days and
my attempts to force this error had failed. The program is linked
from five object files and all of them are listed as the target's
dependencies. Let's try to see the actual error if the bug could
still exhibit itself.

irc/bitchx: undeprecate the port and assume maintainership thereof
Try to address incompatible function pointer types warnings better:
for `fserv' plugin, just force the expected type with explicit cast
as offending function does not use its arguments; disable `arcfour'
plugin for the time being because this case requires a deeper look.

As like as HEAD(14.0-RELEASE) llvm16 was merged in base for 13.2-STABLE

- Utilize USE_CXXSTD=c++14 or similar solution where applicable
- Update conditionals to addtionally check for OSVERSION greater than
1302507 and less than 1400000

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.

Fix CONFLICTS entries of multiple ports
There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.
This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.
Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port

irc/bitchx: fix non-static inline functions

cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
This is because several functions in source/expr2.c are marked __inline,
without either static or extern keyword. The compiler then has to assume
the function is also externally available.
Fix this by marking the affected functions static.

irc/bitchx is not not jobs safe (really)
This port was recently redeclared "jobs safe", but we just hit another

Support LIBS like LDFLAGS.
- Add LIBS="${LIBS}" to MAKE_ENV and CONFIGURE_ENV.
- Add an option helper for LIBS.
- Adjust all ports that already use LIBS. Also remove references to
PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS while here.
- Some ports did not support having a LIBS environment variable and
required additional patches.
Somewhat simplified a linker command line looks like:
${CC} ${src_LDFLAGS} ${LDFLAGS} ${src_LIBS} ${LIBS}
where src_LDFLAGS and src_LIBS are controlled by upstream and LDFLAGS and
LIBS can be controlled by us. If possible -L and -l flags need to be

Feature safe: yes
BitchX, an ass-kicking IRC client, is out of limbo and back on the track!
- Update to version 1.2; project was moved to GitHub
- Convert to new OPTIONS framework; simplify features handling logic
- Enable IPv6 and SSL by default to catch up with new era
- Ditto for plugins that do not require external dependencies
- Drop hard-coded ABI shlib version numbers in LIB_DEPENDS
- Remove obsolete patches [1, 2] and cleanup Makefile while I am here
- Utilize DOCSDIR for smarter handling of documentation (and thus greatly
offload pkg-plist)
- Give maintainership back to Chris Petrik per his request: he is part of
the developer team and has time to look after the port again)

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
