This is a SILC network client
Q: What is SILC?
A: SILC (Secure Internet Live Conferencing) is a protocol which
provides secure conferencing services in the Internet over insecure
channel. SILC is IRC like although internally they are very different.
Biggest similarity between SILC and IRC is that they both provide
conferencing services and that SILC has almost same commands as
IRC. Other than that they are nothing alike.
Biggest differences are that SILC is secure what IRC is not in any
way. The network model is also entirely different compared to IRC.

===> The following configuration options are available for silc-client-1.1.8:
ICONV=on: Encoding conversion support via iconv
IPV6=on: IPv6 protocol support
PERL=on: Perl scripting language support
PTHREADS=off: Enable pthreads support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Remove all the bootstrap files (.bs) from the plists.
Starting with perl 5.20, they're not installed any more if empty,
and on FreeBSD, they're (always ?) empty.

* Update the glib to 2.34.3 and gtk20 to 2.24.17 and gtk30 to 3.6.4 which
are the latest stable releases.
* Update vala to the newest stable release 0.18.1, also update a few ports
in the gtk/gnome stack.
* The c++ bindings ports for glib, atk, gconf, etc, have now USE_GNOME toggles.
* Remove pkg-config run depends from glib20 and freetype2. This doesn't
eliminate pkg-config run dependency completely, a second phase is needed
and is planned.
* Support for .:run. and .:build. for USE_GNOME components was added.
Currently only libxml2 and libxslt support this mechanism.
* Updates of the telepathy stack and empathy.
* Trim makefile headers, convert ports to new options, trim off library
versions for some ports.
* Fix other ports so they build with the new glib version.
Thanks to miwi and crees for helping out with some exp-runs.

Rename OPTIMIZED_ASM option to just ASM. This one has a description
in bsd.options.desc.mk.
Fix build on i386 by partially reverting r307565. Only a partial revert
because I worked around a bug where ${PERL} was not recognized after switching
to new style options.
Feature safe: yes
- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead

Make net/silc-irssi-plugin work with the newer versions of irssi. The fixes
were taken from Debian bug report #522080 and #577501. The work to fix this was
done by Murad Khan (mraoul.freebsd@gmail.com) and sent to me privately.

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
Stop net/silc-irssi-plugin from installing an unnecessary symlink which
causes duplicate /me messages to appear.
Bump PORTREVISION of net/silc-irssi-plugin because of this.
- Set --mandir and --infodir in CONFIGURE_ARGS if the configure script
supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
subdirectory detection.

Tested by: pointyhat exp run
- Update to 1.1
- Install manual page
Cleanups:
- Remove USE_PERL5, use REINPLACE_CMD instead
- Remove PKGDEINSTALL hacks. Replace the same functionality with
Makefile and pkg-plist equivlents
- Remove OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS knob, it is no use. -O2 is always on according
to pointyhat build log
- Remove unnecessary OSVERSION check for 4.x
- Remove installation of unnecessary documents (TODO, CHANGES, etc.)
- Use DOCSDIR, DATADIR macros

Purge the last vestiges of the (really) old autotools world order.

libtool uber-patch
* kill devel/libtool and move to devel/libtool13, upgrading to 1.3.5
* upgrade repo-copied devel/libtool14 to 1.4.3
* break out libltdl into its own separate port
* move to version-numbered binaries/scripts (ie: there is *no* 'libtool'
any more -- USE_LIBTOOL and USE_LIBTOOL_VER are your friends)
Approved by: portmgr (kris) - for the bsd.port.mk hooks

o Update to 0.6.6 o Depend on silc-doc instead of installation documentation
by itself o Update PKG{,DE}INSTALL: do not create/remove modules directory.
There are no modules for BSD platforms yet
o Add port silc-client version 0.6.4: Secure Internet Live Conferencing
(SILC) network client o With invaluable feedback from debolaz during our
all-nighter porting work :)
