Fontconfig does the following:
* discover new fonts when installed automatically, removing a common source
of configuration problems.
* perform font name substitution, so that appropriate alternative fonts can
be selected if fonts are missing.
* identify the set of fonts required to completely cover a set of languages.
* have GUI configuration tools built as it uses an XML-based configuration
file (though with autodiscovery, we believe this need is minimized).
* efficiently and quickly find the fonts you need among the set of fonts
you have installed, even if you have installed thousands of fonts, while
minimzing memory usage.
* be used in concert with the X Render Extension and FreeType to implement
high quality, anti-aliased and subpixel rendered text on a display.

- Replace Mk/bsd.linux-apps.mk and Mk/bsd.linux-rpm.mk with
Mk/Uses/linux.mk.
- Replace USE_LINUX=yes with USES+=linux and USE_LINUX=(.*) with
USES+=linux:\1 in all ports.
- Replace USE_LINUX_APPS with USE_LINUX in all ports.
- Use INSTALL_SCRIPT instead of INSTALL_PROGRAM to install scripts in some
ports.
- When USE_LINUX_RPM is defined, simplify the way DISTFILES and EXTRACT_ONLY
are defined.
- Remove BRANDELF_DIRS and BRANDELF_FILES handling. In the very rare cases
that it is still necessary ports can run ${BRANDELF} from post-patch.
- Remove AUTOMATIC_PLIST handling. Only one port used it.
- Fix Linux MASTER_SITES.
- Replace OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT and OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS with
default versions framework.

Update CentOS base to 6.5, add userland ports
The Fedora 10 infrastructure ports have been in use since June 2009 and, while
having served a great deed, have become unsupported upstream and hence affected
by unfixed security vulnerabilities. In addition to that, many recent Linux
binaries need newer libc / stdlibc++ versions.
This commit adds the linux-c6- userland as drop-in replacement for the -f10
infrastructure, as well as upgrading the linux_base-c6 port to CentOS 6.5.
If you want to switch to linux-c6 ports, please define at /etc/make.conf:
OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=c6
OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=c6

Here are new Linux Fedora 10 infrastructure ports.
Those ports are intended to be used with 8-CURRENT at least
with SVN r192206.
If you want to switch to linux-f10 ports, please define at /etc/make.conf:
OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f10
OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f10
An upgrading procedure is shown at /usr/ports/UPDATING, entries 20090401
and 20070327.
For the first time all tested linux ports work as expected(!):
. acroread8;
. google-earth;
. skype;
. seamonkey.
Many thanks for kernel folks who really did the main work
(and I wrote only some lines of ports).
There is a good chance that those ports may become a default
for 8.0-RELEASE. Please, test and report back to emulation@ ML.
