wmii 3.6_3 x11-wm =6

A dynamic, minimalist window manager for X11

WMII is a small, dynamic window manager for X11.  It supports both classic
and tiling (acme-like) window management with extended keyboard, mouse, and
9p filesystem based remote control.  It replaces the workspace paradigm with
a new tagging approach and is highly scriptable (with plain shell or Python
and even Chicken).

Its minimalist philosophy attempts to not exceed 10.000 lines of code
(including all shipped utilities and libraries), to enforce simplicity and
clarity (read: it is hackable and beautiful).

- Get Rid MD5 support

Adjust CONFLICTS after update of `x11-wm/wmii-devel'.

Feature safe:   yes

Fix the build on amd64 and sparc64 (at least).  I can think of little
reasons to unconditionally reimplement strlcat(3), which is being around in
BSD for over a decade now, but WMII does it anyways.  Apparently, somebody
needs to reread Unix Haters Handbook.

Despite the fact that return value of strlcat() does not seem to be used
anywhere, I decided to keep their implementation instead of switching to
kosher implementation from our libc, just in case of some weird bug-to-bug
compatibility issue.

Closes PR:      ports/143594
Feature safe:   yes

Mark as broken on amd64 and sparc64: fails to compile.

Feature safe:   yes

Fix a potential crash.  I was able to trigger it only with non-UTF8 build
(which is not default) and only with Arora when visiting one specific page,
so leave PORTREVISION as is.

Try to further improve user experience with WMII:

- Since default layout boxes actually just look ugly, but are still useful,
  rework previous solution: instead of omitting them completely, draw them
  in a slim fashion.  Also, give option a better name (SLIM_LAYOUT_BOX)

- Apparently, Xmb* -> Xutf8* conversion was only safe thing to do with UTF-8
  locales; those who use traditional (8-bit) locales and experience problems
  with fonts should try rebuilding the port with UTF8_TEXT option unset

- Since our `devel/9base' port installs rc(1) but not read(1), it is of
  little use as rdep anyway (`devel/plan9port' installs more complete set
  of things, but is unfortunately broken on 8.0+)

- While here, pacify portlint(1) and remove _XOPEN_SOURCE definition to
  prevent some warnings

- Allow to build with hidden layout boxes, lots of people should appreciate
- Adjust regexp slightly while here (avoid extra resulting space)

- Register CONFLICTS with readded `x11/wmii-devel' port
- Update MASTER_SITES
- Minor textual nit in a comment

Deorbit `x11-wm/wmii-devel' in favor of updated `x11-wm/wmii'.

Encouraged by:  sat (maintainer)

- Update `devel/libixp' to version 0.4 [1]
- Update `x11-wm/wmii' to version 3.6 [2]
- Remove CENKES as they do not carry new distfiles
- Minor tweaks in pkg-descr for `devel/libixp'

Rather belatedly, but still:

- Update to version 3.5.1
- Forget about USE_X_PREFIX
- Remove 4.X support

- Welcome X.org 7.2 \o/.
- Set X11BASE to ${LOCALBASE} for recent ${OSVERSION}.
- Bump PORTREVISION for ports intalling files in ${X11BASE}.

- Add port x11-wm/wmii-devel - Hg tip of wmii development
- Arrange mutual conflicts with wmii

Submitted by:   ceri
Approved by:    danfe (maintainer timeout, since 2006-11-01)

Fix the build on 4.X.

- Update to version 3.1
- Provide better COMMENT and port description

Remove USE_REINPLACE from categories starting with X

Mea culpa.  Previous commit log should read:

- Fix MASTER_SITES [1] and WWW line in pkg-descr
- Add SHA256 hash per new world order

Distfile was rerolled (.tar.bz2 -> .tar.gz), but nothing changed inside.

Chase cairo shared library update, bump the PORTREVISION.

Update to version 2.

PR:             ports/84468 [1], ports/85264 [2]
Submitted by:   Wesley Shields <wxs(at)csh.rit.edu> [1]
                Andrew Pogrebennyk <andrew.nau.ua(at)gmail.com> [2]

Disable Cairo by default.  The cairo backend is not recommended in
production use, because cairo library is still very buggy and causes
crashes often (according to authors).  Add a caution comment.

Add wmii, a lightweight window manager.
