leafnode 1.11.7.r1 news =16

NNTP package for offline news caching and reading
Maintained by: matthias.andree@gmx.de
Port Added: unknown
Also Listed In: ipv6

---

---

Leafnode v1.11 is a simple, IPv6 enabled NNTP server and client
designed for small sites. (Think store & forward proxy if you like.)

It "learns" which newsgroups should be downloaded based on what's accessed.
Use it to enable online newsreaders to offline reading or to reduce your
external bandwidth if you have several users accessing Usenet news.

- Update to 1.11.7 RC1

PR:             ports/119980
Submitted by:   Matthias Andree <matthias.andree at gmx.de> (maintainer)

- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script
  supports them.  This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
  do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
  which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
  Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
  PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
  subdirectory detection.

- Update to 1.9.48

### SECURITY BUGFIX ###
- Fetchnews: when a. minlines=0 (default) and b. delaybody=0 (default) and
  either c. no filterfile is configured (default) or a. and b. and d.
  article_despite_filter=1 are configured, an article with missing mandatory
  headers and without body can hang fetchnews and/or prevent the fetch of
  further articles from the current group or server.
  Reported by Toni Viemer?, SourceForge bug 873149.
  This was a denial-of-service bug, not one that could lead to local or remote
  privilege escalation.

Maintainer update [1]:
- Update to 1.9.45, lots of bugfixes, too many to list here,
  see http://mandree.home.pages.de/leafnode/NEWS
- Install German manual pages into standard location so that man(1) can find
  them.  (MANLANG and all that, along the lines used in security/nmap)
- Fix up NOPORTDOCS mode so it actually works
- Fix pkg-message to not contain the same text twice

While I'm here [2]:
- simplify/shorten post-install target a bit by using few new variables
  and unrolling loops
- rename ${PREFIX}/share/doc/leafnode/doc_german to just .../german.
