Sometimes you want roles. You're not sure about Moose, Mouse, Moo and
what was that damned Squirrel thing anyway? Then there's Class::Trait,
but it has a funky syntax and the maintainer's deprecated it in favor
of Moose::Role and you really don't care that it handles overloading,
instance application or has a workaround for the SUPER:: bug. You
think a meta-object protocol sounds nifty, but you don't understand
it. Maybe you're not sure you want the syntactic sugar for object
declaration. Maybe you've convinced your colleagues that roles are a
good idea but they're leery of dragging in Moose (your author has had
this happen more than once and heard of others making the same
complaint). Sometimes you just want good old-fashioned roles which let
you separate class responsibility from code reuse.
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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

Delete the redundant 'regression-test:' target from those of my perl
ports that have it. There's a generic regression-test target
identical to these provided via 'USES=perl5'
Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

Mark all my architecture independent ports using shell/perl/PHP as
NO_ARCH=yes
While here, fix a few other niggles:
net/phpldapadmin -- remove indefinite article from COMMENT
www/p5-RT* -- fix comments referencing the different versions of RT
x11-fonts/gentium-{basic,plus} -- mention ${STAGEDIR} explicitly in the
install targets; rework the handling of ${FONTPATH}
