The DBM class provides a wrapper to a Unix-style Database Manager
library.
Dbm databases do not have tables or columns; they are simple key-value
data stores, like a Ruby Hash except not resident in RAM. Keys and
values must be strings.
The exact library used depends on how Ruby was compiled. It could be
any of the following:
* The original ndbm library is released in 4.3BSD. It is based on dbm
library in Unix Version 7 but has different API to support multiple
databases in a process.
* Berkeley DB versions 1 thru 6, also known as BDB and Sleepycat DB,
now owned by Oracle Corporation.
* Berkeley DB 1.x, still found in 4.4BSD derivatives (FreeBSD,
OpenBSD, etc).
* GDBM, the GNU implementation of dbm.
* QDBM, another open source reimplementation of dbm.
All of these dbm implementations have their own Ruby interfaces
available, which provide richer (but varying) APIs.
===> The following configuration options are available for rubygem-dbm-1.1.0:
====> Select backend dbm library: you have to select exactly one of them
BDB=off: Berkeley DB support
GDBM=off: GNU dbm library support
LIBC=on: libc ndbm support
QDBM=off: QDBM support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
*/rubygem-*: Pass maintainership of my rubygem ports to ruby@
I've joined ruby team. So pass maintainership of my rubygem ports to
ruby@ so members can maintain them.
Mk/**ruby.mk: Switch from USE_RUBY=yes to USES=ruby
Switch from Mk/bsd.ruby.mk to Mk/Uses/ruby.mk
Notable changes are.
- Mk/bsd.ruby.mk is moved to Mk/Uses/ruby.mk.
- USE_RUBY=yes is replaced with USES=ruby.
- USE_RUBY_EXTCONF is replaced with USES=ruby:extconf.
- USE_RUBY_RDOC is replaced with USES=ruby:rdoc.
- USE_RUBY_SETUP is replaces with USES=ruby:setup.
- RUBY_NO_BUILD_DEPENDS and RUBY_NO_RUN_DEPENDS are replaced with
USES=ruby:{build,none,run}.
- RUBY_REQUIRE isn't used anywhere, so removed.
- USES=gem now implies USES=ruby.
This is mainly the work of yasu@ at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D27863
I have just made some cosmetic changes and ran exp-run to test that the
tree is not in a BROKEN state.

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.
