games and applications. It's fully customizable, so you can easily expand it
with support for additional systems and applications.
Features:
- Modern and attractive user interface
- Full controller navigation support
- Supports over 150 game systems
- Ships preconfigured - minimal setup required
- Simple to use, you'll be up and running within minutes

Configuration Options:- ===> The following configuration options are available for es-de-3.4.1_1:
DEINIT=on: Deinit frontend on emulator launch
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
- Options name:
- emulators_es-de
- USES:
- cmake compiler:c++17-lang gettext gl pkgconfig sdl
- pkg-message:
- For install:
- The port provides the enabled by default DEINIT option. It deinits the renderer,
application window and audio system when an emulator is launched. This can save
some resources while playing the actual games, but also benefits audiophile
users, who provide only exclusive access to the audio device with the sysctl
dev.pcm.%d.play.vchans=0. Without the DEINIT option enabled, ES-DE will keep the
audio device open and prevent the launched emulator from also opening it in this
case, effectively disabling sound on the emulator.

emulators/es-de: update to 3.4.1, improve port
* Improve readability by inserting a newline between the *_DEPENDS
variables, and by putting USE_GITLAB with its related variable in its
own block. Also, against portfmt's suggestion, the INSTALL_DATA in the
post-install-DOCS-on target is way too short to warrant a linebreak
and looks weird, so remove the linebreak.
* Safeguard EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS' --exclude entry to match the intended
path only.
* Refresh patch.
* Update and extend pkg-descr to be more in line with the descriptions
given on the official homepage and the GitLab repository.

emulators/es-de: Update 3.3.0 => 3.4.0, remove NLS option
Changelog:
https://gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/releases/v3.4.0
* The NLS option has been removed and the port is compiling with enabled
localization support unconditionally for now. Otherwise the program
would fail to start if the NLS option is disabled, see also
https://gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/issues/2031.
* Simplify the utf8cpp include directory handling.

emulators/es-de: replace deprecated USES=gettext with gettext-{runtime,tools}
USES=gettext is deprecated according to the Porter's Handbook. Replace
it with gettext-runtime and gettext-tools, both are required.
PORTREVISION isn't bumped because USES=gettext is the same as
USES=gettext-{runtime,tools}.

emulators/es-de: Update to 3.2.0
Unbundle graphics/lunasvg: was the last bundled dependency in the external
directory. We can now exclude this directory from extraction via
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS and simplify its handling in the CMakeLists.txt
patch.
Paths in BUILD_DEPENDS are replaced with the "port notation".
Addition of find_package(RapidJSON REQUIRED) in the CMakeLists.txt patch
when unbundling devel/rapidjson was actually never needed. So it got
removed.

emulators/es-de: Simplify port
Remove unnecessary localbase from USES.
Promote unbundled utf8cpp include path to CMakeLists.txt instead of replacing
C include directive in ${WRKSRC}/es-core/utils/StringUtil.h.
Use CMake's modules for finding unbundled RapidJSON and rlottie package.
This allows to remove the INCLUDE_DIRS for both libraries (CMake already does
the right thing when using find_package).
Replace rlottie_LINK_LIBRARIES with the more proper rlottie_LIBRARIES.
