Add GNUstep Make as a run-time dependency of GNUstep Base. The -make package contains makefiles required for building, but also shell scripts for finding run-time dependencies. This was reported as a bug on www/sogo, but actually affects most GNUstep applications. PR: 206586f1bbaead08

- Do not hardcode dependency on GnuTLS (security/gnutls). While preferred, it is not required, and limited functionality can be achieved by using OpenSSL instead (per the comment in configure script); both providers can be turned off with --disable-{tls,openssl} switches - Similarly, make ICU support optional as well and replace cryptic regex in BASEVERSION assignment with :R while here
Approved by: theraven (maintainer)785db2d605Make all GNUstep ports install into the System domain so that the Local domain is available for stuff built from source. Some ports were already installing in the System domain, for these just remove the Makefile lines explicitly specifying the install domain. The rest are installed in the Local domain, remove any overrides, update their pkg-plists and any explicit paths in the Makefiles and then bump port revision.

Convert bsd.gnustep.mk to USES=gnustep Simplify gnustep ports Hook into the regular ports framework: - LIB_DEPENDS for library dependencies - Use regular USE_LDCONFIG Reuse USES=objc (automatic) USE_GNUSTEP is now a macro to set the dependencies and build feature needed. Accepted arguments: back base build gui Merge deskutils/preferencepanes into deskutils/systempreferences06f79b66f2
lang/gnustep-base: Remove empty directories from stagedir Two empty directories weren't listed in pkg-plist, causing this port not to pass poudriere QA checks. My interpretation is that these directories were never packaged, and they should not be packaged, so let's simply remove them from stagedir. This alse means we don't have to bump the port.

The FreeBSD x11@ and graphics team proudly presents a zeising, kwm production, with help from dumbbell, bdrewery: NEW XORG ON FREEBSD 9-STABLE AND 10-STABLE This update switches over to use the new xorg stack by default on FreeBSD 9 and 10 stable, on osversions where vt(9) is available. It is still possible to use the old stack by specifying WITHOUT_NEW_XORG in /etc/make.conf . FreeBSD 8-STABLE and released versions of FreeBSD still use the old version. A package repository with binary packages for new xorg will be available soon. This patch also contains updates of libxcb and related ports, pixman, as well as some drivers and utilities. Bump portrevisions for xf86-* ports, as well as virtualbox-ose-additions due to xserver version change. Apart from these updates, the way shared libraries are handled has been changed for all xorg ports, as well as libxml2 and freetype, which means ltverhack is gone and as a consequence shared libraries have been bumped. The plan is that this change will make library bumps less likely in the future. All affected ports have had their portrevisions bumped as a consequence of this. Fix some issues where WITH_NEW_XORG weren't detected properly on CURRENT. Update instructions, hardware support, and more notes can be found on https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics Thanks to: all testers, bdrewery and the FreeBSD x11@ team exp-run by: bdrewery [1] PR: ports/187602 [1] Approved by: portmgr (bdrewery), core (jhb)39fc32e828

Update to latest GNUstep core libraries. Update dependent packages with more recent releases. Remove old and bit-rotted ones. Switch to using clang 3.3 and libobjc2 1.7 by default, so modern Objective-C features work out of the box and remove a lot of configurable options for sub-optimal (and, often, unsupported / deprecated upstream) configurations. Take maintainership of GNUstep-related ports. Several of the ports left in have scary warnings which mean that they are likely broken in lots of cases. Future commits will fix them.

new devel/pkgconf added to replace devel/pkg-config. new version of pkg-config are no more self hosting so we are stuck with 0.25 version while pkgconf provide the same set of features as 0.27 and a compatible frontend. A symlink to pkg-config has been added for convenience and compatibility This also introduces a new macro to use pkgconf in your ports: USE_PKGCONFIG it can take the following arguments: - yes (meaning build only dep) - build (meaning build only dep) - run (meaning run only dep) - both (meaning run and build dep) From now USE_GNOME= pkgconfig is deprecated in favour of USE_PKGCONFIG The old gnome macro has been modified to use pkgconf but still the sameway: run and build dep to avoid large breakage. While here fix some ports relying on pkg-config but not specifying it, fix some ports broken because testing wrong .pc files, and fix ports using pkg-config --version to determine pkg-config version instead of pkg-config --modversion pkg-config like recommanded by pkg-config With Hat: portmgr Exp-runs by: bapt (pointhat-west), beat (pointyhat)9346b215f0
