Bacula-web is a php based web program that provides you a summarized output
of jobs that have already run. It obtains its information from your catalog
database. Aside from a nice graphical display, it provides summaries of your
jobs, as well as graphs of job usage. This is a fairly high level bacula
management tool. Here are a few points that one user made concerning this
important tool:
- It is web-based so can be accessed from anywhere.
- It is "read only" users can examine the state of the backups but not write
to anything and therefore do no damage
- It packs a phenomenal amount of information into a single web-page - that I
credit as being very good design!
The documentation for bacula-web can be found in a separate bacula-web
document in the bacula-docs release.

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.

The application is generating some files on usage which are maybe not
required anymore if you deinstalled the application.
Suggest on deinstall a command the user can execute to remove all
files.

www/bacula-web: Fix installation for complete freshly installed FreeBSD
If you install bacula-web without any special options set
it is using by standard sqlite3 for the database.
But this is not available with the standard options defined.
Install by default all 3 options (mysql, pgsql, sqlite).
The user can remove database support if required by compiling the
package with required options set.
But we should not block users using pkg to install the package
by using another database then pgsql.
Bump PORTREVISION for ports depending on the canonical version of GCC
as defined in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk which has moved from GCC 8.3
to GCC 9.1 under most circumstances now after revision 507371.
This includes ports
- with USE_GCC=yes or USE_GCC=any,
- with USES=fortran,
- using Mk/bsd.octave.mk which in turn features USES=fortran, and
- with USES=compiler specifying openmp, nestedfct, c11, c++0x, c++11-lang,
c++11-lib, c++14-lang, c++17-lang, or gcc-c++11-lib
plus, everything INDEX-11 shows with a dependency on lang/gcc9 now.

Reverse categories in www/baculaweb for portmaster and friends
Nobody noticed that the submitter added a new category to the port and
kept it in alphabetical order rather than "true" category first, so we
need to move "www" back to the front of the line.

www/bacula-web: Fix pkg-message for non-default location installations
I noticed in the commit diff that the pkg-message did not account for
non-default values of BACULAWEB_HOME, but rather assumed the equivalent
of %%WWWDIR%% (and didn't even use that!). Add a new substition so that
the pkg-message message is correct for non-default locations.
