A reimplementation of the NTP protocol daemon and tools in a secure way.
A major new feature is that it implements IETF's Network Time Security standard
for strong cryptographic authentication of time service.
Security improvements:
* Network Time Security is implemented.
* The deprecated ntpdc utility, long a chronic locus of security
vulnerabilities, has been removed
* Autokey is not supported; that code has been removed, as it was chronically
prone to security vulnerabilities.
* Peer mode has been removed. The keyword peer in ntp.conf is now just an alias
for keyword server.
* Broadcast- and multicast modes, which are impossible to secure, have been
removed.
* The authentication requirement for remote configuration commands (e.g., via
ntpq) can no longer be disabled.
* The deprecated and vulnerability-prone ntpdate program has been replaced with
a shell wrapper around ntpdig.
===> The following configuration options are available for ntpsec-1.2.6:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
REFCLOCKS=on: Enable all refclocks
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
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.

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.

net/ntpsec: Not auto-run tests after build.
This fixes build failures on systems with clang-13.
Tests fail due to clang bug, as claimed by the upstream.
net/ntpsec: Add CONFLICTS between net/{ntp,ntp-devel,openntpd,ntpsec} because
they all install sbin/ntpd
Also remove -* for versions because this isn't needed.

net/ntpsec: Change the manpage path to share/man
In the light of CHANGES/20200115 amdmi3's commit r531317 was correct.
Update the port accordingly.
