- Description:
- This is a Linux version of the Netscape suite (Web browser, HTML editor, mail
user agent and news reader). Using the Linux version on FreeBSD is necessary if
you want to use Linux versions of plugins. Many plugins are distributed only
as Linux binaries. The Macromedia Flash plugin is available, as are the
Canadian and United States region packs, spell-checker, and talkback. AOL
Instant Messenger is omitted (see ports/net/aim).

Say hello to the linux mega patch, it consolidates our linux bits a
little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |

their names. |

Security fix: update to the latest versions: 7.1 for American
English; and 7.02 for French, German, Japanese, and Brazilian
Portuguese. These are reportedly free of the onunload referrer bug
(#145579 in bugzilla).
The Sun Java plugin is no longer available from the same places.
AIM is needed by the 7.02 versions. The DOM inspector and "venkman"
JavaScript debugger are available for 7.1.
Compress generated files with bzip2; omit "linux-" from their names.
The RDF files provided by the ports are no longer needed.
Update references to Netscape 6.
Run chmod to fix permissions on extracted files (for the Portuguese
slave port).
Remove unneeded XXXchecksum target.
Change the configuration process, so that extraneous files are not
downloaded. This resolves PR 44101, submitted by Fernan Aguero. |

Correct the dependency on unzip: it was being ignored, probably
because it was listed as a BUILD_DEPENDS but the ports are marked
NO_BUILD. |

Disable the checksum target. Its presence causes "make describe"
to say:
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 2: warning: duplicate
script for target "checksum" ignored

The release notes say:
Do not share a profile between Netscape and Mozilla builds. Doing
this can lead to unpredictable results, some of which may include
loss of Search settings and preferences and unchecked growth of
the Bookmarks file (large enough to freeze your system). It is
best to create a new profile for each or manually copy (and change
the name [of]) an existing profile.
Warn users about this. |
