Pgeasy is a PostgreSQL API that is a cleaner interface to the libpq
library, more like an SQL 4GL interface.
There are examples in share/examples/postgresql/libpqeasy
and docs in share/doc/postgresql/libpqeasy
===> The following configuration options are available for postgresql-libpgeasy-3.0.4_3:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings

Reason:
The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 17 to 18.
The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
speedup of the upgrade.
The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.
Upgrade instructions:
First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 17, your
files are named according to this.
# service postgresql stop
# pkg create postgresql17-server postgresql17-contrib
# mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql17-server-17.9.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# tar xf postgresql17-contrib-17.9.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
# pkg delete -f databases/postgresql17-server databases/postgresql17-contrib databases/postgresql17-client
Now update PostgreSQL:
pkg user:
# pkg install databases/postgresql18-server databases/postgresql18-contrib
# pkg upgrade
Portmaster users:
# portmaster databases/postgresql18-server databases/postgresql18-contrib
# portmaster -a
Portupgrade users:
# portinstall databases/postgresql18-server databases/postgresql18-contrib
# portupgrade -a
After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
all your databases to new version:
# su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C --no-data-checksums -D /var/db/postgres/data18 -U postgres"
# su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data17/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data18/ -U postgres "
Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:
# service postgresql start
ATTENTION:
1) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly
2) The initdb in the upgrade procedure uses '--no-data-checksums' to enable
pg_upgrade from before this change. You should review the documentation and
decide whether you want to then enable checksums with pg_checksums. Future
upgrade instructions for PostgreSQL 19 and later will assume a default
initdb, and therefore that checksums are enabled.

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.

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.

MASTER_SITES cleanup.
- Replace ${MASTER_SITE_FOO} with FOO.
- Merge MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR into MASTER_SITES when possible. (This means 99.9%
of the time.)
- Remove occurrences of MASTER_SITE_LOCAL when no subdirectory was present and
no hint of what it should be was present.
- Fix some logic.
- And generally, make things more simple and easy to understand.
While there, add magic values to the FESTIVAL, GENTOO, GIMP, GNUPG, QT and
SAMBA macros.
Also, replace some EXTRACT_SUFX occurences with USES=tar:*.

Welcome back to libpgeasy. It was once a part of the standard
distribution (up to 7.2), but now lives its own life. Naturally, we
should have a port for it :-)
Official information:
Pgeasy is a PostgreSQL API that is a cleaner interface to the libpq
library, more like an SQL 4GL interface.
