CUPS is a standards-based, open source printing system. It uses the Internet
Printing Protocol (IPP) to support printing to local and network printers.
===> The following configuration options are available for cups-2.4.20:
AVAHI=on: Zeroconf support via Avahi
DBUS=on: D-Bus IPC system support
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
IPPTOOL=on: Internet Printing Protocol testing tool
LIBPAPER=on: Paper size selection support via libpaper
NLS=on: Native Language Support
X11=off: Install desktop menu item
====> Secure network connection support via TLS: you can only select none or one of them
GNUTLS=off: SSL/TLS support via GnuTLS
OPENSSL=on: SSL/TLS support via OpenSSL
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
print/cups: update to 2.4.8
CUPS 2.4.8 brings many bug fixes which aggregated over the last half a year.
It brings the important fix for race conditions and errors which can happen
when installing permanent IPP Everywhere printer, support for PAM modules
password-auth and system-auth and new option for lpstat which can show only
the successful jobs.

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.

*/*: Remove redundant '-[0-9]*' from CONFLICTS
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").
Many CONFLICTS definitions used patterns like "bash-[0-9]*" to filter
for the bash package in any version. But that pattern is functionally
identical with just "bash".

Follow other distributions and switch to OpenPrinting version of CUPS.
It tracks the current Apple CUPS sources and includes common changes and
bug fixes for the various Linux distributions and other UNIX(r)-like
operating systems.

- Update to 2.2.7.
- Remove -Wl,-R flag from cups-config output to fix out of tree builds of
Gnome. The -R flag takes precedence over -L flags when the linker
searches for dependencies of libraries listed on the command line which
can be unexpected. Therefore, config scripts like this should only
provide -L flags. An rpath is then typically generated automatically by
the build system (cmake, libtool,...). [1]

Remove Kerberos related configuration from default cupsd.conf because
Kerberos support is disabled and the configuration causes an error.

Assume "pkg-config libusb*" works after 9.x EOL
FreeBSD appears to use different pkg-config name for 0.1.x API but it
doesn't matter much as 0.1, 1.0 and 2.0 share CFLAGS/LIBS.
- Update to 2.1.4.
- Let the socket backend print debug messages on the DEBUG channel. The
other channels affect the printer status message in lpstat(1) which can
be confusing. [1]

- Update security/gnutls to 3.4.10.
- Rename the LIBDANE option DANE because that's the name of the protocol
supported by libgnutls-dane and gnutls-cli. Also clarify the option
description.
- Add an IDN option.
- libgnutls-openssl has been removed in 3.4. Some ports used this library
in their LIB_DEPENDS but no port actually required it.
- Some old API functions have been removed. Ports that used these have been
updated or patched to use the new API.
- Add a patch to print/cups to prevent overlinking of libgnutls.so.
- Bump PORTREVISION on dependent ports.
net-im/jabber: This port used the old API to give users fine grained
control over which crypto algorithms were used via a configuration file.
It's not immediately obvious how to port this to the new API so the port
always uses the defaults now.
www/hydra: Mark BROKEN. This uses more removed calls than the other ports,
is said to be alpha quality and not fully functional and has been abandoned
10 years ago.

Add a patch to print/cups and print/hplip to disable detaching of ulpt(4).
This isn't needed on FreeBSD and it always fails because the process doesn't
have the required privileges.

Combine print/cups-base, print/cups-client and print/cups-image into
print/cups and update it to 2.1.3. Also remove print/cups-pstoraster,
improve print/cups-filters, print/foomatic-* and update print/hplip to
3.16.2.
Long description:
First some background. When you hand a file to cups it sets up a chain of
filter programs that converts the file to something a printer understands.
Each filter has a cost associated with it and cups tries to find the
cheapest chain. Costs used to be configured in such a way that files were
first converted to PostScript. This could then be manipulated further (e.g.
putting multiple pages on one sheet) before finally being sent to a
PostScript printer or another filter like pstoraster which produces a raster
format understood by non-PostScript printer drivers. Nowadays most filters

Discussed with: bapt
At the moment 1385 ports use BUILD_DEPENDS= ${RUN_DEPENDS} and 450
ports use BUILD_DEPENDS:= ${RUN_DEPENDS}. This patch fixes ports that are
currently broken. This is a temporary measure until we organically stop using
:= or someone(s) spend a lot of time changing all the ports over.
Explicit duplication > := > = and this just moves ports one step to the left

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).
