Currently, the hylafax port has a few flaws -- it uses
the libz and regex libraries that come with the software
instead of the implementations available on FreeBSD and
ignores the local CFLAGS settings. It also needlessly (it
seems) requires gmake.

options `start' and `stop' now (unless I have forgotten any). This allows
us to call the scripts from /etc/rc.shutdown with the correct option.
The (42 or so) ports that already DTRT before are unchanged.
which officially fixes the setuid security exploit by the vendors.
Additionally, from the PR:
* adds in distribution patches to allow it to interoperate
with libtiff-3.5.5 (the current version in the ports tree),
and replace an original FreeBSD patch.
* includes security patches (replacements of 'strcpy' and
'sprintf', primarily), mostly based on patches originally
submitted by Alex Langer [1] for 4.0pl2 and not yet commited,
although some new work was done too.
[1] I don't think, that these were my patches but those submitted by
John Holland <john@zoner.org> in PR 19180.
* Fixes some issues with the configure/setup scripts introduced
since the previous version.
* Additionally, original FreeBSD patches from 4.0pl2 were
merged in where they were not addressed by anything else.
(except the I18N patch, sorry).
I removed the FORBIDDEN line since there are at least no obvious security
concerns left.

previous commit message to bsd.port.mk, which said INSTALL_SHLIBS. Boo.)
Line up the rhs of variable assignments nicely. Remove a couple of extra
whitespaces while I'm here.

I don't know exactly what changed in the distfile. To generate the new
checksum I did ``make distclean makesum''. So I don't have the old distfiles
around to check. I did verify that the new distfiles does compile and the
resulting binary runs. But I guess that is not suffient today.

basically what the PR suggested, although i did it somewhat
differently. (The PR was related to the previous version of Kermit
anyway.)
After asking Frank da Cruz again, i did however decide to not run the
shipped ckermit.ini (alias .kermrc) by default; the defaults of Kermit
version 7 are supposed to fit the needs of most people, so there is no
need to run the .ini file for everybody. Those who want it can still
find it in the `examples' directory (and Frank suggested users who
like to do this can easily run this as a `kerbang' script file instead
of starting the plain kermit binary).

Only changed giflib -> libungif in kdegraphics.
They realy do NOT want libgif, and do NOT use libgif anywhere.
Some ports are checking its existence in configure, but they
are nonsense at all!!
instead. The hack fell over on the Alpha architecture anyway.
Quoting Frank da Cruz <fdc@watsun.cc.columbia.edu>:
``P.S. The "default" man page is ckuker.nr. You only need to run ckuker.cpp
through "make manpage" if you are building a custom man page (like the one
that we make for HP-UX). Since FreeBSD does not have a custom man page,
there is no need to do this.''
The Kermit port is now fully Alpha-ready, too.
This program is used to transfer data between a Psion Series 5mx
(default) or Psion Series 5 to a Unix server. The ncp daemon is
started to communicate with the Psion and an ftp like interface is
provided by rfsv.

mailing stuff out automatically, it is just too much. Please use

If nothing else works, you can always compile rzsz from the original
source.

Add myself as the maintainer.
Remove `RESTRICTED', open-source operating systems are now allowed
to redistribute either sources as well as a binary version.

in magicpoint).
If you really care, I can mark them BROKEN until they are confirmed to be safe.
Note that this port currently has no MAINTAINER, so will probably stay
broken until it either gets upgraded or fixed by someone who actually uses
it.

Ugh. pkg/DESCR is an advertisement for your port, people. It seems to
me that if I was writing a port for some peice of software that I liked,
I would try to make it look nice to the rest of the world, who might never
even use it otherwise.
