SYMPA -- Systeme de Multi-Postage Automatique
SYMPA is an electronic mailing list manager. It is used to automate list
management functions such as subscription, moderation and management of
archives. SYMPA also manages sending of messages to the lists, and
makes it possible to reduce the load on the system. Provided that you
have enough memory on your system, Sympa is especially well adapted for big
lists. For a list with 20 000 subscribers, it takes 5 minutes to send a
message to 90% of subscribers, of course considering that the network is
available.
===> The following configuration options are available for sympa-6.2.80_1:
APACHE=off: Apache server support
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
FASTCGI=on: FastCGI protocol support
====> Options available for the radio DATABASE: you can only select none or one of them
MYSQL=on: MySQL database support
PGSQL=off: PostgreSQL database support
SQLITE=off: SQLite database support

devel/libtextstyle, devel/gettext*: Update to 0.26
Recent versions of gettext no longer install m4 files in
PREFIX/share/aclocal. They have to be installed in the work
directory by autopoint for aclocal to find them.
Patch devel/autoconf so autoreconf runs autopoint when gettext related
macros are used in configure.ac (e.g. AM_ICONV). Previously it only
ran autopoint when AM_GNU_GETTEXT_(REQUIRE_)VERSION was used.
The following ports now require autopoint (i.e. USES=gettext-tools):
benchmarks/sysbench, devel/libhtp, editors/fxite, filesystems/rar2fs,
graphics/gd, net/ucarp, news/fidogate, sysutils/cdrdao

databases/p5-DBD-mysql: Fix for MariaDB users
Add a new variable DBD_MYSQL, use that in *_DEPENDS and add mysql to USES
where required. DBD_MYSQL will automatically set the correct DBD dependency.
In cd16748194e2 databases/p5-DBD-mysql was updated to 5.x, in 5.x the
support for MariaDB was removed and only MySQL >= 8.0 is supported.
In the 4.x releases MariaDB is still supported, according to upstream 4.x
will still be supported for a while [1], so use that for now when we detect
that MYSQL_FLAVOUR is set to mariadb. databases/p5-DBD-mysql4 was added in
d95f49cb3b54.
DBD:MariaDB would be another alternative, but migrating to it might need
more analysis than just staying with the 4.x releases of p5-DBD-mysql. This

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.

Add postfix as build dependency.
While creating a package of sympa the configure script searches for the path of
postmap and if it is not found, it falls back to standard path /usr/sbin/postmap
As the correct path is required, that postfix integration will not work like it
is described here:
https://sympa-community.github.io/manual/install/configure-mail-server-postfix.html
adding postfix as a build dependency ensures that the correct path for postmap
is detected and the file /usr/local/libexec/sympa/sympa_newaliases.pl will have
the correct path.

affect functionality, administrators might have to apply their
customization to the new templates again.

that earlier efforts getting attribute such as MAIL, Email in subject DN
are no longer supported.

Remove all := from BUILD_DEPENDS, here are never needed.
While there, cleanup, and sort depends.
When build and run dependencies are the same, there are three ways to
avoid duplicating the list while not adding the framework added
BUILD_DEPENDS to the RUN_DEPENDS. In order of preference, they are:
1) use RUN_DEPENDS to set BUILD_DEPENDS:
BUILD_DEPENDS= ${RUN_DEPENDS}
RUN_DEPENDS= foo:bar/baz
2) create another variable and use it:
MY_DEPENDS= foo:bar/baz
BUILD_DEPENDS= ${MY_DEPENDS}
RUN_DEPENDS= ${MY_DEPENDS}
3) use BUILD_DEPENDS to set RUN_DEPENDS and force evaluation:
BUILD_DEPENDS= foo:bar/baz
RUN_DEPENDS:= ${BUILD_DEPENDS}

PR: 223963
Approved by: Geoffroy Desvernay <dgeo@centrale-marseille.fr> (maintainer)
OPTIONS_SET/OPTIONS_UNSET are global variables, they cannot be used in ports
Makefiles.
So, replace them with OPTIONS_SLAVE, OPTIONS_EXCLUDE, OPTIONS_DEFAULT,
where appropriate.
The ghostscript ports are doing something nasty that is certainly wrong,
but I don't want to try to understand it.

replacement for :U and :L (which has been marked as deprecated)
bmake which is the default on FreeBSD 10+ only support by default
:tu/:tl a hack has been added at the time to support :U and :L to ease
migration. This hack is now not necessary anymore
Note that this makes the ports tree incompatible with make(1) from
