Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Automake is a tool for automatically generating Makefiles compliant with the GNU Coding Standards. It was inspired by the 4.4BSD make and include files, but aims to be portable and to conform to the GNU standards for Makefile variables and targets. Automake is a Perl script. The input files are called Makefile.am. The output files are called Makefile.in; They are intended for use with Autoconf. Automake requires certain things to be done in your configure.in. This package also includes the "aclocal" program. aclocal is a program to generate an 'aclocal.m4' based on the contents of 'configure.in'. It is useful as an extensible, maintainable mechanism for augmenting autoconf. This port is specifically designed for developers that want to create cross-platform software distributions on FreeBSD. This version of automake should _NEVER_ be used with the FreeBSD ports system as a replacement for the versioned copies of automake.

With the regular autotools ports now being able to be used not only
for ports building, but also cross-platform development, mark these
two as DEPRECATED, with a one-month expiration date.

Patches for the 3 ports that currently use these have been issued to
their maintainers.

- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script
  supports them.  This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
  do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
  which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
  Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
  PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
  subdirectory detection.

Since we're using NO_MTREE, we need to completely clean up behind us.
Curiously, with a 'normal test sequence' of PREFIX=/build make ...
this didn't flag any errors.

Assume maintainership.

It's important to note here that these particular versions of autotools
will be left without FreeBSD-specific hacks, so that developers and IDEs
alike will be able to run in a pristine environment, ensuring
cross-platform capability.  The prefix of ${LOCALBASE}/gnu-autotools
will remain untouched, it's merely a case of ensuring that they are
kept up to date.

These ports are strange in that they use a non-standard PREFIX.  Make sure to
clean up after them.

Add gnu-automake, (repo-copied from devel/automake19) an unhacked version of
automake-1.8.5 aimed at developers that need to create cross-platform software
distributions.  This port installs into ${LOCALBASE}/gnu-autotools, so
developers that need to make use of this version of autoconf can adjust their
paths accordingly.
