PostGIS adds support for geographic objects to the PostgreSQL
object-relational database. In effect, PostGIS "spatially enables"
the PostgreSQL server, allowing it to be used as a backend spatial
database for geographic information systems (GIS), much like ESRI's
SDE or Oracle's Spatial extension. PostGIS follows the OpenGIS
"Simple Features Specification for SQL" and has been certified as
compliant with the "Types and Functions" profile.
PostGIS development was started by Refractions Research as a project
in open source spatial database technology. PostGIS is released
under the GNU General Public License. PostGIS continues to be
developed by a group of contributors led by a Project Steering
Committee and new features continue to be added.

*/*: Bump PORTREVISION for postgresql-server dependant ports
All ports depending on postgreql-server require a rebuild after
postgresql-server is upgraded to reflect security fixes.

*/*: De-orbit alias.mk
Mk/Uses/alias.mk was an attempt for compat with DPorts, but has rotted.
This feature was never documented in the PHB, so there is no work to
be done by the docs@ team.
Nothing against DragonFly, but if DPorts still needs FreeBSD 9
support, they really should work that out with upstream projects.
Ultimately, we don't need to keep carrying this outdated feature that
doesn't affect us.
*/*: Bump PORTREVISION for devel/protobuf-c update
libprotobuf-c.so once again has version info. Force a rebuild of
its consumers.
