astro/stellarium: unbreak the port's build (after commit d7c13b0bf44f)
Requesting specific version of `math/fast_float' port, even the major
one, is not reliable because it bumps too frequently; stop asking for
any version and assume that whatever we have in the ports should work.

astro/stellarium: re-enable telescope control plugin
Since `devel/indi' port had been updated (the build, however,
requires one upstream patch). Also, it now links against the
shared, not static library.
astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to bugfix version 24.4
Stellarium Team has released the final version of this year.
The major changes in this version:
- Changes in DSO rendering, improvements in the core
- Telescope control plugin now requires new INDI API
and thus has been disabled and marked as BROKEN
- Updates in sky cultures
- Behind the scenes, many more minor issues were fixed

astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to bugfix version 24.2
- Drop GUIDE_VERSION which always matches PORTVERSION these days
- Add Tsinghua University mirror for sometimes faster downloads
astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to the latest version 24.1
Our `math/fast_float' port installs what CMake calls `FastFloat'
and its advertised version is 6.0.0, despite that it is, really,
6.1.0, adjust the search logic accordingly.
astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to version 23.3
QtPrintSupport module is no longer used (was for Exoplanets
plugin, but nowadays not referenced in any CMakeLists.txt).
astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to version 23.1
- Unfortunately, upstream had decided to switch from sane
version numbers to abominable "year.release" scheme :(
- Disable new fragment-shader-based direction computation

astro/stellarium: update Stellarium to version 1.2
Some sky cultures had been renamed, two new added.
While here, switch to smaller .tar.xz distfile and
make data export to Excel files support optional.
astro/{calcmysky,stellarium}: update both ports to the latest versions
It's unfortunate transition time when they cannot be updated separately,
not at least without some ugly patching.
Make Stellarium use static release tarball instead of the generated by
GitHub one. While currently it does not win us much, next version will
be additionally offering smaller .tar.xz distfile which we'll switch to
more easily.
Enforce Qt5 build for now. While Stellarium and its dependencies are
Qt6-ready, providing correct and coherent flavors for all of them is
too much work for little gain. Everyone should be using Qt5 anyways.

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.

astro/stellarium: update the port to version 0.22.1
- Added fixed equatorial grid/line
- Added new sky cultures (khoi-san and xhosa)
- Updated DSO catalog
Reported by: portscout
astro/stellarium: the port had been updated and improved (+)
- Update Stellarium to the latest version 0.22.0
- Introduce WEBENGINE option: it helps to query various websites such
as Wikipedia, VSX AAVSO, GCVS SAI, etc. for extra information about
selected object and display it in the plugin's window
- Because of the above, reword MORE_STARS option description to avoid
using the word `extra' twice in the option selection dialog
astro/stellarium: the port had been updated to version 0.21.3
Disable OnlineQueries plugin because it pulls in Qt's WebEngine via
autodetection and there is no standard way to disable it right now.
While here, hook the tests to our framework.
astro/stellarium: the port had been updated to version 0.21.2
Do not install original Almagest catalog files, which is just raw data
converted into `star_names.fab' and `dso_names.fab' files that can be
used by Stellarium.
While here, group option description variables together and sort them
in alphabetical order.
- Make NLS support optional: currently, Qt's lconvert executable allocates
ridiculous amount of memory which 32-bit address space cannot hold; see
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-87010
- Drop dependency on `devel/gettext': it is only used to generate (update)
.pot and .po files which does not happen when building release versions
- Use option helpers to handle scripting support, rename SCRIPTING option
to SCRIPTS to simplify adding OPTIONS_SUB (to reduce the churn on the
pkg-plist), and amend its description while I'm here
Update Stellarium to version 0.20.3; the major changes:
- Fixed nutation and, with it, season beginning times
- Many changes in AstroCalc tool and core of Stellarium
- Many changes in Oculars and Satellites plugins
- Updated DSO catalog

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.

compiler version (I forgot which one), but today it is not
needed anymore on any supported FreeBSD version

Fix Qt5 symbol version scripts to put the catch-all clause first. When
a symbol matches multiple clauses the last one takes precedence. If the
catch-all is last it captures everything. In the case of Qt5 libraries
this caused all symbols to have a Qt_5 label while some should have
Qt_5_PRIVATE_API. This only affects lld because GNU ld always gives the
catch-all lowest priority.
Older versions of Qt5Webengine exported some memory allocation symbols from
the bundled Chromium. Version 5.9 stopped exporting these [1] but the
symbols were kept as weak wrappers for the standard allocation functions to
maintain binary compatibility. [2][3] The problem is that the call to the
standard function in these weak wrappers is only resolved to the standard
function if there's a call to this standard function in other parts of
Qt5Webengine, because only then is there a non-weak symbol that takes
precedence over the weak one. If there's no such non-weak symbol the call

Update Stellarium to version 0.17.0 (unfortunately, the project had moved to
GitHub). While here, update CONFLICTS_INSTALL in `astro/stellarium-qt4'.
Because GitHub releases (tarballs) are not fetched with correct modification
time, set TIMESTAMP to 1513853534 which corresponds to commit e273315 tagged
as this release.
- Update Stellarium and official User Guide to version 0.16.0
- GPS support has to be disabled for now because `Mk/bsd.qt.mk'
does not know about Qt5Positioning component yet
TIMESTAMP (stellarium-0.16.0.tar.gz) = 1498032288
- Install official PDF User Guide as part of the documentation (version
number is hardcoded as it is not always in sync with the PORTVERSION)
- Make telescope control plugin (and Qt5SerialPort dependency) optional
- Remove enforced distfiles checksum recalculation added in r377577: it
turned out that updating distinfo manually is easier and a lot faster
- Replace some options imperative (explicit) handling with helper knobs
- Do not install high resolution textures by default, since they do not
have their prime meridians recalibrated yet while stock textures have

- Update to version 0.14.3, which contains few closed bugs (ported from

- Make scripting support optional and sanitize Qt5 dependencies
- Disable building the unit tests for the time being (needs more work)
- While here, use some option helpers and clarify LICENSE (GPLv2+)

Even though the port still has a few FindIconv.cmake files scattered around,
they are not actually used by the build system anymore, so the dependency is
unnecessary.

- Belatedly update to version 0.13.3
- Remove GTK'ish INSTALLS_ICONS knob, as it pulls dependencies that might
be uncalled in pure X11 or Qt-based environments
- Update to version 0.13.2 and install better quality textures by default
- Ensure that complete distinfo is generated, irregardless of the options
- Mention legacy `astro/stellarium-qt4' port in the port description text
Improve the way we use optional high-resolution textures:
- Forget about Milky Way texture for now as it causes rendering artifacts;
- While most of those textures are indeed better than the ones provided by
default (e.g., Jupiter and Ganymede), some of those are actually worse
(e.g. Venus). Use simple file size-based logic to decide if a texture
is worth a replacement.
Allow to install optional high-resolution textures; these are supported by
0.12.x versions and first two of 0.13.x; have to revisit it upon update to
0.13.2 (coming soon).
Update the default version of GCC in the Ports Collection from GCC 4.7.4

Update Stellarium to version 0.13.0. It's a new major release, and is based
on Qt version 5 now; for those who are not comfortable with upgrading to the
new version of Qt, `astro/stellarium-qt4' port is available, serving version
0.12.4. Add an UPDATING entry to alert users about this.
While here, make scripting support optional in `astro/stellarium-qt4', since
it allows to use one less dependency. Unfortunately, this is not applicable
to 0.13.0 as required `x11-toolkits/qt5-declarative' port has USE_QT5=script
unconditionally.
Relax USE_GL knob for both ports: only libGL itself is required, not libGLU.
- Update to version 0.12.3, which brings new Bright Novae plugin and fixes
of a few bugs within plugins and the search tool
- Rename SOUND option to MULTIMEDIA, as it covers video as well
This is likely to be the last release based on Qt 4.8, next series (0.13.x)
would be based on Qt 5, which offers improved modularity, has better OpenGL
support, and nice new Qt3D and QML stuff for GUI.
- Update to version 0.11.4(a), with better FreeBSD support out of the box
- Drop leading indefinite article from COMMENT line per recent agreements

Make the port build with the upcoming Qt 4.8.x series.
Since 4.8.0 [1], Qt itself does not automatically include GLU's
headers and libraries with its OpenGL module, so applications which
relied on Qt to get these need to be adjusted.
The upcoming update to x11/qt4-opengl will thus switch to USE_GL=gl,
so we need to add USE_GL=glu for this port.
PORTREVISION bumped since we now explicitly depend on GLU via
USE_GL=glu.
