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

misc/global-tz: new port The Global Time Zone Database (global-tz) is a fork of the IANA Time Zone Database with expanded best-effort historical data for some time zones whose clocks have agreed with other time zones since 1970. In an up to date default FreeBSD installation /usr/share/zoneinfo contains the most recent IANA tzdb release as well as compatibility links for time zones that existed in previous IANA tzdb releases (from the "backward" file in the distribution). FreeBSD releases have never included the out of scope pre-1970 historical data (from the "backzone" file in the distribution). This is the same approach as taken by most other open source projects that distribute the IANA Time Zone Database. The global-tz fork was prompted by the controversial decision by the maintainers of the IANA Time Zone Database to move time zones whose clocks have not changed since 1970 to "backzone". While previous IANA tzdb releases would return historical data for these zones if available, recent IANA tzdb releases instead return available pre-1970 data for the zones whose clocks they have agreed with since 1970 (the target of the "backward" link). The overwhelming majority of users are unlikely to be affected by this decision. FreeBSD users who rely on pre-1970 time zone history may wish to install this port. This port overwrites system files in /usr/share/zoneinfo. If you build your systems from source, add WITHOUT_ZONEINFO="yes" to /etc/src.conf. If you use freebsd-update(8), add /usr/share/zoneinfo to IgnorePaths in /etc/freebsd-update.conf. WWW: https://github.com/JodaOrg/global-tzcdcc7cbc65
