- Description:
- This is a low level console graphics library, originally based on VGAlib 1.2
by Tommy Frandsen. VGAlib supported a number of standard VGA graphics modes,
as well as high resolution/high color modes found on many popular graphics
adapters. As of now, support for many more chipsets had been added.
It supports transparent virtual console switching, that is, you can switch
consoles to and from text and graphics mode consoles using Alt-[Function
Key]. Also, SVGAlib corrects most of VGAlib's textmode corruption behavior
by catching SIGSEGV, SIGFPE, SIGILL, and other fatal signals and ensuring
that a program is running in the currently visible virtual console before
setting a graphics mode.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

graphics/svgalib: prevent "make all" from deleting files
The Makefile provided with this software made "make install" imply
"make uninstall" as a pre-condition. This caused the installation of
files to the stage directory to be preceded by the removal of those
files from the base system.
This is unacceptable behavior for a port: no files outside of the
work directory and possibly $TMPDIR (i.e. /tmp) must be affected by
"make all" to build a port.
This issue did not affect building a package in poudriere, since
there were no installed files to delete, and the generated package
was correct. Therefore, the PORTREVISION has not been bumped.

[patch] graphics/svgalib checks wrong virtual console for ownership
graphics/svgalib contains an off-by-one error in the code
that checks that the user is the owner of the current virtual
terminal. Instead of checking /dev/ttyv[X], it checks
/dev/ttyv[X+1].
Submitted by: Chris Pressey <cpressey@catseye.mine.nu>
This happens because svgalib was written for Linnex, and
they start tty numbering from 1, contrary to FreeBSD, which
does it from 0. I always knew that FreeBSD is better: who
counts from 1 in this world?! ;-)
