- License: not specified in port
- Description:
- This program converts line endings of text files between MS-DOS and **IX
formats. It detects binary files in a nearly foolproof way and leaves them
alone unless you override this. It will also leave files alone that are already
in the right format and preserves file timestamps. User interrupts are handled
gracefully and no garbage or corrupted files left behind. 'flip' does not
convert files to a different character set, and it cannot handle Apple
Macintosh line endings (CR only). For that (and more), you can use the 'recode'
program (package 'recode').

Fix a common grammar error: "can not" means the opposite of "cannot."
"Can not" means "it is possible not to," and "cannot" means "it is impossible
to." |

Remove UNIQUENAME and LATEST_LINK.
UNIQUENAME was never unique, it was only used by USE_LDCONFIG and now,
we won't have conflicts there.
Use PKGBASE instead of LATEST_LINK in PKGLATESTFILE, the *only* consumer
is pkg-devel, and it works just fine without LATEST_LINK as pkg-devel
has the correct PKGNAME anyway.
Now that UNIQUENAME is gone, OPTIONSFILE is too. (it's been called
OPTIONS_FILE now.)

MASTER_SITES cleanup.
- Replace ${MASTER_SITE_FOO} with FOO.
- Merge MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR into MASTER_SITES when possible. (This means 99.9%
of the time.)
- Remove occurrences of MASTER_SITE_LOCAL when no subdirectory was present and
no hint of what it should be was present.
- Fix some logic.
- And generally, make things more simple and easy to understand.
While there, add magic values to the FESTIVAL, GENTOO, GIMP, GNUPG, QT and
SAMBA macros.
Also, replace some EXTRACT_SUFX occurences with USES=tar:*.
