- Description:
- [ from developer's site ]
It is a free library for decoding ATSC A/52 streams, aka AC-3. The
A/52 standard is used in a variety of applications, e.g., digital
television and DVD. The main goals in liba52 development are:
Portability - most of the code is written in C, and when we use
platform-specific optimizations we always have a generic C routine
to fall back on.
Reusability - we do not want liba52 to include any project-specific
code, but it should still include enough features to be used by
very diverse projects.
Precision - We are trying to implement all of the A/52 standard,
and to have a very precise output by doing all the calculations in
floating point. We have a test suite that detects any deviation in
the output when compared to previous versions. We do not have access
to official A/52 test vectors though, so we have to use our judgement
to ensure that such deviations are only introduced when we fix bugs!
Speed - liba52 is really fast, on any modern PC it should take only
a few percent of CPU time.

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.

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.

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.

Whoa there, boy, that's a mighty big commit y'all have there...
Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed. |
