README-sub (as noticed by aja@)
- stronger checks for X correctly installed: don't ignore ports if X11
is not there, error out right away. Make sure /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults
is a link, and that whatis.db is there (as should be fixed by release in
xenocara)
- during the scanning stage, we can rely on more than sizes. Specifically,
for files with cached sha values: detect problems early, zap the files, so
the new ones do fetch.
- do not allow "negative" caching: if the cached file doesn't match, just
run the checksum again to make sure (manual download would tamper with that).
This should allow builders to forget about the existence of
/usr/ports/distfiles/distinfo again.
- remove bad files so that fetch has a chance to work (todo: log some more
info, yeah landry...)
- zap code from (checksum) proper that's no longer in-use.
okay jasper@
(gets in because fixing the mirrors for the release is important, and dpb -F
would not do the right thing without manual intervention).
distfiles. MD5 is known to be insecure and RIPEMD-160 and SHA-1
are considered inferior to SHA-256.
Also, the concatenation of different hashes is not more secure than
its strongest component; see Antoine Joux, "Multicollisions in
iterated hash functions. Application to cascased constructions"

Discussed with many, ok sthen@
at downloads.sourceforge.net; all the FRS mirrors just redirect us back there
to lookup the file as ports don't have logical folder names in the file paths.
add an XXX comment because we don't _really_ want to be relying on this:
to be revisited.
noticed after no-longer-existent mirrors pointed out by fgs@
a shell object that can chdir, setenv, and exec commands.
(note that this executes stuff after fork, so permanent changes are cheap
and okay)
Also create it from "host" objects, which simplifies parameter passing.
CONFIGURE_STYLE is gnu.
Works the same way as SYSCONFDIR, one can append a subdirectory to
change the default localstatedir by using the following construct in the
port Makefile:
LOCALSTATEDIR= ${BASELOCALSTATEDIR}/foobar
Note that this variable in not substituted in PLIST.
bulk tested by landry (on a previous diff)
