Follow the upstream recommendations for packagers and switch to
multi-packages:
devel/gettext -> devel/gettext,-runtime
devel/gettext-tools -> devel/gettext,-tools
(new) devel/gettext,-textstyle
some existing COMPILER lines with arch restrictions etc. In the usual
case this is now using "COMPILER = base-clang ports-gcc base-gcc" on
ports with c++ libraries in WANTLIB.
This is basically intended to be a noop on architectures using clang
as the system compiler, but help with other architectures where we
currently have many ports knocked out due to building with an unsuitable
compiler -
- some ports require c++11/newer so the GCC version in base that is used
on these archirtectures is too old.
- some ports have conflicts where an executable is built with one compiler
(e.g. gcc from base) but a library dependency is built with a different
one (e.g. gcc from ports), resulted in mixing incompatible libraries in the
same address space.
devel/gmp is intentionally skipped as it's on the path to building gcc -
the c++ library there is unused in ports (and not built by default upstream)
so intending to disable building gmpcxx in a future commit.
helper library for networking and security applications and libraries.
It is used by various 'finance' software, and possibly others.
Gwenhywfar includes the following features, among several others:
- OS abstraction functions for directory and Internet address handling
and library loading (src/os/)
- Networking functions which allow managing many connections to be used
economically even in single threaded applications
- High-level functions for parsing files with a simplified "XML-like"
format and accessing them like a hierarchical database (src/parser/)
It is able to process valid XML files, too.
- High-level cryptographic functions on top of OpenSSL functionality
(src/crypt/)
