Description:
vmware-guestd daemon is for time synchronization with host OS and others. Beware, this port is for FreeBSD _guest_ OS. You don't need to install this ports to FreeBSD _host_ OS. This ports also installs a kernel modules for FreeBSD guest. If you want to run FreeBSD as a VMware guest OS, install this port would help you. If you want to run X, install vmware-tools too. This port assumes that a) users want only "must-have" binaries and b) guest OS runs on a certain architecture and never be changed. For those want full-feature of VMware Tools, use the installer bundled with VMware Tools instead. WWW: http://www.vmware.com/products/ws/

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

Packaging bugfix: we don't need ${X11BASE}/etc/rc.d/vmware-guestd{,.sh}

vmware-guestd{,.sh} script is just for vmware-guestd5 port, not vmware-tools5.
However, USE_RC_SUBR variable is defined for vmware-tools5, the script
is installed even if it is not needed.

Bump PORTREVISION to note this change.

Use '@stopdaemon' command recently introduced.

Actually, vmware-guestd4 package content is changed but I don't want to
bump the version -- it is used only in uninstallation phase (and VMware
Workstation 4.x is no longer updated so no uninstallation will be needed.)

Follow the new world order: use 'USE_RC_ORDER=file.sh' feature.
        - repocopy vmware-guestd.sh to vmware-guestd.sh.in (by portmgr)
        - remove vmware-guestd.sh
        - remove vmware-guestd.sh entry from pkg-plist
        - update Makefile

It is intensional that I do NOT bump PORTREVISION by this commit, since
any executable is not changed, and startup script itself is also NOT
changed, only the filename is changed.  I do not want to bother users
to update their port by this non-functional change.

If you have any reasonable reason to bump PORTREVISION, let me know, and
I'll update the version asap.

Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.
We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.

Fix some errors, including:

- Build fix when WITH_VMWARE_GTK is set.
- Reorder pkg-plist so that @unexec vmware-guestd.sh successfully done.
- Create directories for server modules, since xserver may not be installed.

Even though this makes no "installed" content change, but bump
PORTREVISION since pkg-plist/pkg-plist.tools are changed.

Dear VMware Workstation users around the world, here is an upgrade of
VMware Workstation FreeBSD-guest related ports for VMware Workstation
5.5.0 build 18463.

New features are:

- Spell "VMware Workstation" appropriately.
        There are much VMware products, it would be the time that I have
        to spell VMware Workstation as VMware Workstation.
- Support FreeBSD/amd64 since 64-bit binaries are provided from VMware.
        I don't test any of 64-bit related portion, since I have no
        FreeBSD/amd64 machine.  If something trouble please email me.
- New variable "WITH_VMWARE_GTK" (emulators/vmware-tools5)
        Install gtk version of VMware Tools if defined
        (add more dependencies on other gtk-related ports)
