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:
VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation. Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS. VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS, dual-boot configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS. However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires to modify /etc files. This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer, and XFree86 X server if you set XFREE86_VERSION to 3 in /etc/make.conf, If you already use XFree86 4.1.0 or later, you may use 'vmware' driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port, ports/emulators/vmware-guestd, but this port install guestd automatically. WWW: http://www.vmware.com/products/desktop/ws_features.html

This port is divided into ports/emulators/vmware-tools{2,3}
(already repocopied to these directories, so no histories are lost).

Thanks for using this port, and if you are VMware 3.x user
use ports/emulators/vmware-tools3 instead.  VMware 2.x users
also are happy with ports/emulators/vmware-tools2.

We can safely assume that vmware-guestd is already installed while
do-install target is running.  So use installed vmware-guestd to detach
VMware Tools CD-ROM (same as ports/emulators/vmware-guestd/Makefile rev 1.3.)
No content change will apply with this commit.

Update for VMware 3.0.0 build 1455.   	- Extracts tarball from (pseudo) CD-ROM
directly.   	- RUN_DEPENDS to vmware-guestd which is newly added.   	- Install
XF86_VMware X server if and only if XFREE86_VERSION=3.   	- Some cosmetics.
