LASzip is a compression library for compressing ASPRS LAS format data. It has
been provided as an LGPL-licensed stand-alone software library to allow other
softwares that handle LAS data to read and write LASzip-compressed data. The
BSD-licensed libLAS and the LGPL-licensed LASlib can take advantage of LASzip to
read and write compressed data.
LASzip is completely lossless. It compresses bulky LAS files into compact LAZ
files that are only 10-20 percent of the original size, accurately preserving
every single bit.
archivers/laszip: Update to 3.5.1
LASzip was relicensed to Apache Public License 2.0 by Rapidlasso, GmbH
in January 2022. This relicense corresponds to only software in the
LASzip GitHub repository at https://github.com/LASzip/LASzip and
none of the LAStools software that lives at
https://github.com/LAStools/LAStools/
There are duplicates of a number of files in both repositories. Developers
wishing to use APL versions must use the ones in the LASzip repository.
- Small memory leaks
- bug fix for signed long (I32) in set_value_as_float()
- limit level_offset init loop in quadtree
- fix for uncommon zero'd chunk tables
The port uses GitHub, because their are no releases or tags and no
download archive of v3.5.x until now.
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.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
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.

Change the maintainer entry in rhurlin's ports
After I got a commit bit for ports, it is time now to change the maintainers
entry in all 'owned' ports.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26398
Bump PORTREVISION for ports depending on the canonical version of GCC
as defined in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk which has moved from GCC 8.3
to GCC 9.1 under most circumstances now after revision 507371.
This includes ports
- with USE_GCC=yes or USE_GCC=any,
- with USES=fortran,
- using Mk/bsd.octave.mk which in turn features USES=fortran, and
- with USES=compiler specifying openmp, nestedfct, c11, c++0x, c++11-lang,
c++11-lib, c++14-lang, c++17-lang, or gcc-c++11-lib
plus, everything INDEX-11 shows with a dependency on lang/gcc9 now.
