Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
PostgreSQL is a sophisticated Object-Relational DBMS, supporting almost all SQL constructs, including subselects, transactions, and user-defined types and functions. It is the most advanced open-source database available anywhere. Commercial Support is also available. The original Postgres code was the effort of many graduate students, undergraduate students, and staff programmers working under the direction of Professor Michael Stonebraker at the University of California, Berkeley. In 1995, Andrew Yu and Jolly Chen took on the task of converting the DBMS query language to SQL and created a new database system which came to known as Postgres95. Many others contributed to the porting, testing, debugging and enhancement of the Postgres95 code. As the code improved, and 1995 faded into memory, PostgreSQL was born. PostgreSQL development is presently being performed by a team of Internet developers who are now responsible for all current and future development. The development team coordinator is Marc G. Fournier (scrappy@PostgreSQL.ORG). Support is available from the PostgreSQL developer/user community through the support mailing list (questions@PostgreSQL.ORG). PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available. WWW: http://www.postgresql.org/

NEW XORG ON FREEBSD 9-STABLE AND 10-STABLE

This update switches over to use the new xorg stack by default on FreeBSD 9
and 10 stable, on osversions where vt(9) is available.
It is still possible to use the old stack by specifying WITHOUT_NEW_XORG in
/etc/make.conf .
FreeBSD 8-STABLE and released versions of FreeBSD still use
the old version.
A package repository with binary packages for new xorg will
be available soon.

This patch also contains updates of libxcb and related ports, pixman, as well

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported
version of the database system, including versions 9.3.4, 9.2.8, 9.1.13,
9.0.17, and 8.4.21. This minor release fixes a data corruption issue with
replication and crash recovery in version 9.3, as well as several other minor
issues in all versions.  All users of version 9.3 are urged to update their
installations at the next possible downtime.  Users of older versions should
update at their convenience.

The data corruption issue in PostgreSQL 9.3 affects binary replication
standbys, servers being recovered from point-in-time-recovery backup, and
standalone servers which recover from a system crash. The bug causes
unrecoverable index corruption during recovery due to incorrect replay of row
locking operations.  This can then cause query results to be inconsistent
depending on whether or not an index is used, and eventually lead to primary
key violations and similar issues.  For this reason, users are encouraged to

PostgreSQL 9.2.3, 9.1.8, 9.0.12, 8.4.16 and 8.3.23 released

This update fixes a denial-of-service (DOS) vulnerability.  All users
should update their PostgreSQL installations as soon as possible.

The security issue fixed in this release, CVE-2013-0255, allows a
previously authenticated user to crash the server by calling
an internal function with invalid arguments.

Security:       CVE-2010-1170

The PostgreSQL Project today released minor versions updating all active
branches of the PostgreSQL object-relational database system, including
versions 8.4.4, 8.3.11, 8.2.17, 8.1.21, 8.0.25, and 7.4.29. This release
fixes moderate-risk security issues with PL/perl and PL/tcl, as well as
a data corruption issue with standby databases.  Users of any of these
three features should update their PostgreSQL installations immediately.
