===> The following configuration options are available for zoom-video-conferencing-client-5.3.465578.0920_1:
====> Install OpenGL libraries for your system:: you can only select none or one of them
LINUX_NVIDIA_LIBS=off: NVidia libraries x11/linux-nvidia-libs
LINUX_NVIDIA_LIBS_304=off: NVidia libraries x11/linux-nvidia-libs-304
LINUX_NVIDIA_LIBS_340=off: NVidia libraries x11/linux-nvidia-libs-340
LINUX_NVIDIA_LIBS_390=off: NVidia libraries x11/linux-nvidia-libs-390
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
You installed Zoom: A video conferencing client.
CAVEAT: Sound does not yet work in Zoom on FreeBSD.
In order to run Zoom you need:
1. Linux emulation:
# service linux enable && service linux start
2. multimedia/webcamd installed, then start its daemon:
# service webcamd enable && service webcamd start
3. a Linux OpenGL package for your video card. It could be one of
linux-nvidia-libs*, etc. Enable a port option corresponding to your
OpenGL driver, if applicable. If zoom crashes because of OpenGL, try
running with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1
Configuration file: ~/.config/zoomus.conf
If you have linux-c7-pulseaudio-libs or linux-c7-alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
installed and Zoom asserts in PulseAudio, please change system.audio.type
to "alsa" in the configuration file.
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.

New port: net-im/zoom: Zoom videoconferencing client
Sound doesn't work yet. It seems that Zoom has some bug and
doesn't show audio devices that the ALSA interface returns
to it. Hopefully this will be fixed by Zoom.
Lack of sound severely limits its usability, but it can still be
useful in these situations:
* A particular Zoom conference isn't supported through the web interface.
At least video can be watched in such case, vs. nothing at all.
* Video or chat aren't displayed properly through the web interface,
and this client can be used to augment the experience.
Installing it into /opt because the /opt/zoom path is hardcoded
into the binary.
Zoom didn't define any license or terms of use for their binaries.
It is just a free download with a single click.
