3.0.11_1graphicsΣ=0 3.0.11_1Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch.upstream: 3.0.13A newer version was found upstream by portscout, first on 2026-08-01.
FractGen is a simple Qt-based fractal generator program for Mandelbrot
fractals. The image size is only limited by virtual memory. It is possible
to zoom into images. Image parameters are saved in and loaded from
XML-encoded FractGen Settings Files (FSF). Calculated images can be
exported as graphics files.
The intention of this program is to generate graphics to be post-processed
by other image tools, e.g. in order to generate nice screen backgrounds or
book covers.
===> The following configuration options are available for fractgen-3.0.11_1:
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
====> Options available for the multi PLATFORM: you have to choose at least one of them
CLI=on: Build the command-line version
KDE=off: Build the KDE version
QT=on: Build the Qt version
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
graphics/fractgen: Improve port
- Simplify option names: FRACTGEN_CLI => CLI and etc.
- Move CLI KDE QT to MULTI - at least on option must be enabled.
- Move examples from DATADIR to EXAMPLESDIR.
- Sort plist.

graphics/fractgen: Remove unneeded dependencies
Remove graphics/libglvnd from LIB_DEPENDS because USE_GL=gl pulls
already.
The Qt tools needed only in build stage.
Bump PORTREVISION.
Reported by: makc
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.
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.

Update fractgen patches to be more resilient
This doesn't change the package at all, it just makes our patches
easier to upstream. Document the %%PREFIX%% substitution a little
better while we're at it.
Update graphics/fractgen to latest upstream release
The release is a month or two old by now. Some Qt 5.15.2 patches
have landed in the release, but not all of them. New translations
require additional dependencies and patching in the right directory
to search (PREFIX/share).
There are no useful release notes for this release.

Update Qt/PySide2 to 5.15.2 / PyQt to 5.15.1 / SIP to 5.4.0
This commit combines several updates.
- Update Qt to 5.12.2
- Update PyQt to 5.15.1
- Since PySide 5.15.1 is broken with Qt 5.15.2, so PySide and Shiboken are also
updated to 5.15.2.
- Update sip to 5.4.0
SIP is a collection of tools to create Python bindings for C and C++ libraries
and used by PyQt and wxPython. There are some changes with sip5 [1]:
- python 3.5+ is required
- sip drops support of old deprecated methods as sipdistutils & cie.
- this version breaks also PyQt5 extension ABI. SIP files will be installed in
${PYTHON_SITELIBDIR}/PyQt${_PYQT_VERSION}/bindings
- some ports will use the new pyqtbuilder package with the pyproject.toml setup.
Instead if the project have a setup.py, you should use sip-build to build it.
- if a port needs sip, it should also needs pysip. BTW, py-qt5-core requires
pysip, so that should be enough for PyQt packages.
