- Description:
- Dire Wolf is a software "soundcard" modem/TNC and APRS encoder/decoder.
It can be used stand-alone to observe APRS traffic, as a digipeater,
APRStt gateway, or Internet Gateway (IGate). It can also be used as a
virtual TNC for other applications such as APRSIS32, UI-View32, Xastir,
APRS-TW, YAAC, UISS, Linux AX25, SARTrack, RMS Express, BPQ32, Outpost
PM, and many others.

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.

comms/direwolf: Update to 1.6
- Really update to 1.6 this time. Changes involved new buld system.
- Corrected non functioning SED
- petted portlint
- Rather than trying to keep a bunch of different platform specific Makefiles in
sync, "cmake" is now used for greater portability and easier maintenance.
- README.md has a quick summary of the process. More details in the ***User
Guide***.
- "-X" option enables FX.25 transmission. FX.25 reception is always enabled so
you don't need to do anything special. "What is FX.25?" you might ask. It is
forward error correction (FEC) added in a way that is completely compatible with
an ordinary AX.25 frame. See new document
***AX25\_plus\_FEC\_equals\_FX25.pdf*** for details.
- Receive AIS location data from ships. Enable by using "-B AIS" command line
option or "MODEM AIS" in the configuration file. AIS NMEA sentences are
encapsulated in APRS user-defined data with a "{DA" prefix. This uses 9600 bps
so you need to use wide band audio, not what comes out of the speaker. There is
also a "-A" option to generate APRS Object Reports.
- Receive Emergency Alert System (EAS) Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME).
Enable by using "-B EAS" command line option or "MODEM EAS" in the configuration
file. EAS SAME messages are encapsulated in APRS user-defined data with a "{DE"
prefix. This uses low speed AFSK so speaker output is fine. (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |

astro/gpsd: Update to 3.20
- Update to 3.20 (welcome ubxtool and gpsrinex!)
- Fix SConstruct per python3 [1]
- Replace spaces by tabs (pet portlint)
- Fixes astro/foxtrotgps, astro/gpxloggerd and comms/direwolf
Changelog:
- https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/blob/master/NEWS#L16
[1] scons is py27 only and check py27 packages for a py37 port. I commented
these tests in SConstruct since we already do it in our Makefile.

Mark BROKEN: wrong LIB_DEPENDS

db  |
The astro/gpsd update (r439960) removed libgpsd.so that Direwolf's LIB_DEPENDS
was described with. Direwolf actually depends on libgps.so, so this just gets
renamed to reflect actual dependency.
While here, one of the telemetry scripts uses #!/usr/local/bin/python, so mark
the dependency on the python metaport. No PORTREVISION bump because port was
failing to build as of r439960.

Do not separate ${DESTDIR}${PREFIX} with a slash: this is redundant when
PREFIX is an absolute path (common case) and could break things if it is
not (and DESTDIR is empty). Should have been part of r439766. |

Don't pass STAGEDIR via MAKE_ENV, it's already being defined (as DESTDIR)
in MAKE_ARGS. Also, remove bogus trailing slash when setting INSTALLDIR,
kill EOL whitespace in the port description text, and fix its formatting.
