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

Update xorg x11 servers to 1.20.7 Update xorg x11 servers to 1.20.7. This updates x11-servers/xorg-server, xephyr, xorg-dmx, xorg-nestserver, xorg-vbserver and xwayland. Enable the UDEV backend by default, instead of the DEVD backend, for autoconfiguration of input devices on FreeBSD 12 and later. FreeBSD 11 lacks the needed support in base and will keep on using the DEVD backend. Support for the HAL backend is dropped completely, it has been deprecated for a long time. Update and improve the DEVD backend. Add a pkg message about sysctl configuration that might be needed when using UDEV. Use the upstream fix for glamour issues. Use evdev xkb rules by default in xwayland [2] Add x11-drivers/xf86-input-libinput to the list installed by default by x11-drivers/xorg-drivers. Fix net/tigervnc-server and emulators/virtualbox-ose Bump portrevision of all x11 drivers, as well as other ports dependent on xorg-server. This represents work by many people over a long period. These include wulf, ak, dumbbell, hselasky pete AT nomadlogic DOT org, jbeich, manu, myself and possibly others (I tried to look through history, but might have missed people. If so, I am sorry.)

Switch to xorgproto instead of individual packages Upstream used to distribute protocol headers as separate packages, but has decided to merge those to a common package, named xorgproto. This update tracks that change. * Add a new port, x11/xorgproto, with are protocol headers for xorg. * Hook the new protocol port to the build and to infrastructure in bsd.xorg.mk. * Update all ports with a dependency on any of the old *proto packages to instead depend on xorgproto. Bump portrevision. * Delete the old *proto packages, update MOVED. PR: 230023 Submitted by: zeising Approved by: portmgr (antoine) exp-run by: antoine15dac70c75
