ELF Dissector: Static analysis tool for ELF libraries and executables.
ELF Dissector is useful if you need to do one or more of the following:
- Inspecting forward and backward dependencies, on library
and symbol level.
- Identifying load-time performance bottlenecks such as expensive
static constructors or excessive relocations.
- Size profiling of ELF files.
Mk/Uses: always use colon for build/run suffix
Most USES use a colon for build/run(/test) suffixes. Change kde.mk,
qt.mk and pyqt.mk to do the same, and update all ports using that.

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.

devel/elf-dissector: New port, GUI Tools for ELF inspection
ELF-Dissector is a tool from the KDE Community for doing
visually pleasing inspections of, and optimizations on,
ELF files, including whole applications.
The tool is at an early stage of development (and needs work
on FreeBSD), but is, in itself, quite useful for chasing
unused dependencies and the like.
