This port installs a Linux shared library of Mesa, used from Linux programs.
Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to that
of OpenGL*. To the extent that Mesa utilizes the OpenGL command syntax
or state machine, it is being used with authorization from Silicon Graphics,
Inc. However, the author makes no claim that Mesa is in any way a
compatible replacement for OpenGL or associated with Silicon Graphics, Inc.
Those who want a licensed implementation of OpenGL should contact a licensed
vendor. This software is distributed under the terms of the GNU Library

- add explanation to DEPRECATED instead of using "yes" [1]
- portlint
- let it expire a litte bit earlier

Mega-patch to cleanup the ports infrastructure regarding our linux bits:
- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not neccesary anymore to override
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the linux X11 libraries
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
default (or overriden) linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
instead of a hardcoded reference.
- Change all ports to comply to the "new world order".
- The Ports Collection now allows to override the default linux_base port.
Specify e.g. OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=rh-9 in /etc/make.conf to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 (the logic is to use
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- Use a binary RPM of Mesa v3 instead of building it from source:
* get's rid of the linux_devtools dependency
* fixes the conflicts seen at deinstall time on pointyhat
- correct the paths for the GL/GLU libs in the dependencies (the RPM
installs the mesa libs to .../lib/ instead to .../X11R6/lib/)
Nagging by: pointyhat
Don't install (ln -s) libGL.so and libGLU.so, they get already installed
by some other port.
We lose the ability to _compile_ linux programs with Mesa3 support by
specifying "-lGL -lGLU", but someone who needs to do this can use
"-lMesaGL -lMesaGLU" instead (or come up with a better solution).

Say hello to the linux mega patch, it consolidates our linux bits a
little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some

Mark BROKEN (see bento logs). These ports are scheduled for removal
after Feb 2 2004 if they are still broken at that time and no fixes
have been submitted by PR.
It seemed that devel/linux_devtools was repocopied to linux_develtools-6
and linux_devtools-7, but that the original directory never was
removed. Finished this action and updated dependencies.
