deskutils/virt-manager: update to 4.1.0b1bd7c849e
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)fb16dfecae
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. This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr files in order to preserve them. There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These ports will not be touched in this commit. The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as deprecated. Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)b7f05445c0

Use PY_FLAVOR for dependencies. FLAVOR is the current port's flavor, it should not be used outside of this scope. Sponsored by: Absolight4376dbbb58
deskutils/virt-manager: update to 1.5.1 Also, and runtime dependency on security/openssh-askpass which is used when connecting over ssh.2ef619f145
Convert Python ports to FLAVORS.
Ports using USE_PYTHON=distutils are now flavored. They will
automatically get flavors (py27, py34, py35, py36) depending on what
versions they support.
There is also a USE_PYTHON=flavors for ports that do not use distutils
but need FLAVORS to be set. A USE_PYTHON=noflavors can be set if
using distutils but flavors are not wanted.
A new USE_PYTHON=optsuffix that will add PYTHON_PKGNAMESUFFIX has been
added to cope with Python ports that did not have the Python
PKGNAMEPREFIX but are flavored.
USES=python now also exports a PY_FLAVOR variable that contains the
current python flavor. It can be used in dependency lines when the
port itself is not python flavored. For example, deskutils/calibre.
By default, all the flavors are generated. To only generate flavors
for the versions in PYTHON2_DEFAULT and PYTHON3_DEFAULT, define
BUILD_DEFAULT_PYTHON_FLAVORS in your make.conf.
In all the ports with Python dependencies, the *_DEPENDS entries MUST
end with the flavor so that the framework knows which to build/use.
This is done by appending '@${PY_FLAVOR}' after the origin (or
@${FLAVOR} if in a Python module with Python flavors, as the content
will be the same). For example:
RUN_DEPENDS= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}six>0:devel/py-six@${PY_FLAVOR}

Sponsored by: Absolight4e1b79a0a6Improve shebangfix framework
- Support multiple values in *_OLD_CMD, i.e. we can now fix both "/usr/bin/python" and "/usr/bin/env python" at the same time
- Default *_OLD_CMD values are now always appended, so you don't need to specify them in individual ports
- Add lua support (depends on USES=lua)
- Add more default values, such as "/usr/bin/env foo" for python, perl, bash, ruby and lua
- Shebangfix now matches whole words, e.g. we will no longer (erroneously) replace "/usr/bin/perl5.005" with "${perl_CMD}5.005" (but "/usr/bin/perl -tt" is still (correctly) replaced with "${perl_CMD} -tt")
Note that *_OLD_CMD items containing spaces must now be quoted (e.g. perl_OLD_CMD=/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl "/usr/bin/env perl")
Update shebangfix usage according to new rules in many ports:
- Remove *_OLD_CMD for patterns now replaced by default
- Quote custom *_OLD_CMD which contain spaces
Fix shebangfix usage in many ports (irrelevant to infrastructure change):
- Remove redundant SHEBANG_LANG (no need to duplicate default langs)
- Remove redundant *_CMD (such as python_CMD=${LOCALBASE}/bin/python${PYTHON_VER} when USES=python is present)
- Never use *_OLD_CMD in REINPLACE_CMD matchers, these should always look for exact string
