Also compress manpages in this location.
As a followup of a discussion which occured in 2017:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2017-March/018115.html
And following:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=315053
and
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=315142
All the supported FreeBSD version now supports share/man in manpath for
LOCALBASE As a result the ports tree can now accept it for manpage, but
more over migrate to this new path. Resulting in more consistency now the
manpages in base and ports would be in the relative path (under share/)
and a reduced amount of patching needed to port something to FreeBSD
Note1: this has already be done for GNU info pages earlier
Note2: due to the fact that for end user no functionnality will change during
the migration of the manpages to the new location and to avoid massive rebuild
of packages, it has been decided to not bump portrevision when migrating.

This attempts to provide a nicer error message for the subset of
users who build their own kernels without COMPAT_FREEBSD11 and then
attempt to build lang/rust. The Rust ecosystem currently uses
pre-ino64 syscalls, so building lang/rust without COMPAT_FREEBSD11
is not going to work.
The error message for this is non-obvious and there is a new bug
for this at least every 1-2 months. Hopefully this will improve
the situation a little.
Cargo and Gecko ports are similarly affected, so add the pre-build
check to them too.

Much of the Python version selection code had compat shims around to
accomodate the transition from before to with flavors. These can now be
removed.

This was used before flavors were a thing to make sure if you built port
A with some python version, and it needed port B, port B would also be
built with the same python version.

Tuesday, 7 January 2020. Today KDE releases a bugfix update to KDE Plasma 5,
versioned 5.17.5. Plasma 5.17 was released in October 2019 with many feature
refinements and new modules to complete the desktop experience.
This release adds a month's worth of new translations and fixes from KDE's
contributors. The bugfixes are typically small but important and include:
* Fix for KDecoration crash in systemsettings. Commit. Fixes bug #411166.
* Fix regression in "Port the pager applet away from QtWidgets".
* Revert "[sddm-theme] Fix initial focus after SDDM QQC2 Port".
Full Plasma 5.17.5 changelog:
https://kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.17.4-5.17.5-changelog.php
This update includes an Emacs major version change from 27.0.50 to 28.0.50.
Ports that may depend on editors/emacs-devel must chase this update
with a PORTREVISION bump.

Because qt-dist.mk sets EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS, the framework-standard
--no-same-owner and --no-same-permissions aren't added. That means
that the files end up in packages with the permissions from the tarball,
and in particular that official packages contain group-writable (wheel)
includes (C++ headers) and other files.
This was reported in
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227027
and fixed in 465911 (18 months ago) but the move from bsd.qt.mk
to Uses/qt-dist.mk lost those settings again. Re-add them to
the Uses/ file to improve package security.
(The problem does not seem to be present in my local poudriere builds)

dependency on GCC 6 in the Ports Collection is gone, so we can remove
support for USE_GCC=6 and USE_GCC=6+. [1]
This does not remove lang/gcc6 yet, but helps avoid new dependencies,
and GCC 6 has been unmaintained upstream for more than a year.
On the way update two examples to use more current versions of GCC.

This allows a port/package to install a symlink pointing
the real font directory managed by core XLFD (aka fonts.dir).
Adding a new entry of "FontPath" into the system-wide
xorg.conf or "xset fp" by users manually is no longer needed.
When both USES=fonts and ${FONTPATHSPEC} are defined,
the post-install target will install ${FONTPATHSPEC} into
${FONTPATHD} directory as a symlink to ${FONTSDIR}.
The symlink name has the following syntax:
<identifier>:[attribute:]pri=<priority>
Details can be found in xorg.conf(5). A typical example
for a bitmap font is as follows:
FONTPATHSPEC= ${PORTNAME}:unscaled:pri=60
No objection on: x11
- While here, remove the patches to install the headers in a prefix;
there currently is only one grantlee version in the tree, so no
reason to make life harder for ourselves.
Previously variables such as AS, LD, etc. were only set to the path
but not the tool itself due to a typo.

If systems are updated without running `make delete-old`, makeinfo
may still be lingering around in /usr/bin. This causes eventual
errors as it can't handle brand new emerging technology from 10
years ago (like CSS).
Instead of permitting makeinfo from base (which was removed in
11.0-RELEASE), depend specifically on makeinfo from print/texinfo.

The new format [1,2] dropped the [metadata] table. As a consequence
our cargo-crates.awk script no longer outputs CARGO_CRATES. We can
get the crate list from the various [[package]] tables instead.
This should work with the new as well as the old format.
