- Description:
- Stockfish is a free UCI chess engine derived from Glaurung 2.1. It is not
a complete chess program and requires some UCI-compatible GUI (e.g. XBoard
with PolyGlot, eboard, Arena, Sigma Chess, Shredder, Chess Partner, or
Fritz) in order to be used comfortably.
Read the documentation for your GUI of choice for information about how to
use Stockfish with it.

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.

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.

Add LDFLAGS+= -fuse-ld=lld
so the port builds regardless of the linker differences between FreeBSD
releases.
Not much in the release notes:

SF 10 improves by about 50 ELO in self-play compared to SF 9.

- Limit Tier-2 unsupported systems list to sparc64: PowerPC is supported
(both 32- and 64-bit), and there's little reason to mention ia64 as it
is being officially killed in -CURRENT some time ago and we don't make
any packages for it anyways
- Rename options POPCNT_ENABLED -> POPCNT and PROFILE_BUILD -> PROFILE;
not just it makes more sense, it also allows to use shared description
text (PROFILE_DESC)
- Place PORTDATA and PORTDOCS right below PLIST_FILES where they belong
- Organize knobs in a more natural way, use `do-install-DOCS-on' target,
mute MKDIR's, improve and kill EOL whitespace in the port description
text, sort USES values, and fix some minor style issues while I'm here |
