Since the author switched to use autoconf to maintain it, the entire
build system changed quite a bit. In order to get it to use the
correct tools (avr-gcc etc.) instead of the default C compiler, the
package now contains wrapper scripts to configure and build it, so a
good part of our ports framework doesn't apply anymore very well. As
a side-effect, i can't get it to honor ${PREFIX} in any way right now.
Maybe i'll switch away from the shipped scripts, and redo all their
stuff within that Makefile in future.
. install -c now default, thus patch-aa no longer needed
. isblank() has been added
. the HTML reference is now integral part of the
distribution file, so no need to fetch it separately
anymore
redirect to a new server, but they don't carry the old files anymore.
Unfortunately, in order to build the new stuff, we'd need a newer
avr-gcc first -- and that one's by now only available directly from
gcc's CVS repo, which is a little too `green' to me. Let's wait
another couple of months until they rolled a newer release of gcc and
binutils, and switch then.
By now, store the old distfile elsewhere.
