• port moved to ports-mgmt/port-authoring-tools on 2007-02-05
  REASON: Moved to a new category
  

Populate a new ports-mgmt category. List of moved ports:

  devel/portcheckout -> ports-mgmt/portcheckout
  devel/portlint -> ports-mgmt/portlint
  devel/portmk -> ports-mgmt/portmk
  devel/porttools -> ports-mgmt/porttools
  misc/instant-tinderbox -> ports-mgmt/instant-tinderbox
  misc/porteasy -> ports-mgmt/porteasy
  misc/portell -> ports-mgmt/portell
  misc/portless -> ports-mgmt/portless
  misc/tinderbox -> ports-mgmt/tinderbox
  security/jailaudit -> ports-mgmt/jailaudit
  security/portaudit -> ports-mgmt/portaudit
  security/portaudit-db -> ports-mgmt/portaudit-db
  security/vulnerability-test-port -> ports-mgmt/vulnerability-test-port

Fix package build by using explicit paths in RUN_DEPENDS

Add two new metaports comprising a set of tools to work with the Ports
Collection.  One is targeted to the audience of people who wish to
install ports from source and then maintain their system; the other,
more specialized, is intended for ports authors.

These might be good candidates for a "start here" reference for those
new to the ports collection and port maintenance.  They might also serve
to introduce more people to fastest-cvsup, pkg_cutleaves, libchk, and
porttools, which IMHO would be A Good Thing.
