To start icecast at system boot, copy /usr/local/etc/icecast.xml.sample to /usr/local/etc/icecast.xml, customize to your environment as desired and add: icecast_enable="yes" to /etc/rc.conf. See the icecast -h command for optional additional flags. To specify an alternative config file for example add: icecast_flags="-c /path/to/your/configuration.xml" ********************************************************************** ** Make sure the <changeowner> section in your configuration file ** ** is NOT commented out. Icecast will refuse to run as root. ** ** ** ** Also make sure that the user you choose is able to write to your ** ** configured log directory, otherwise icecast will refuse to run. ** **********************************************************************

Conversion to a single libtool environment. Approved by: portmgr (kris)8503536d38
Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears. We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.c49d1a3273

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself. Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it. Preliminary documentation can be found at: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the Porters Handbook.

Whoa there, boy, that's a mighty big commit y'all have there...
Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.3f651573adBump PORTREVISION on all ports that depend on gettext to aid with upgrading. (Part 2)053fdb6a6b
