- Description:
- PLP implements the Psion Link Protocol.
This program is used to transfer data between a Psion Series 5mx
(default) or Psion Series 5 to a Unix server. The ncp daemon is
started to communicate with the Psion and an ftp like interface is
provided by rfsv.
Before using this port it is necessary to either
a) create a symbolic link form the serial port the psion is
connected to /dev/psion eg ln -s /dev/cuaa0 /dev/psion
or
b) start the ncp daemon with the correct serial port eg
ncp -s 7501 -d /dev/cuaa0 -s5

Mark for depreciation, since unmaintained, failing to work with current
versions of GCC, mostly dead upstream, and requiring gcc295 which fails
to build itself (and does not support current version of FreeBSD nor most
primary targets).
EXPIRATION_DATE=2009-03-22
Move maintainership back to the ports@ pool.

Move inclusion of bsd.port.pre.mk later in the file for conditional BROKEN
tag. Early inclusion caused problems for some ports, so to be safe I'm
updating all of them.
