EPIC4 is a new direction in ircII development. No longer is EPIC 100%
backwards compatible with ircII, but instead those things where
compatibility is undesirable have been found and fixed. No gratuitous
incompatibilities have been added, but lots of new code has been added to
make EPIC the best ircII client available.
EPIC no longer shares any file names with ircII, so they should happily
co-exist.
===> The following configuration options are available for epic4-3.0:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
IPV6=on: IPv6 protocol support
PERL=on: Perl scripting language support
SSL=on: SSL protocol support
TCL=on: Tcl scripting language support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
EPIC is a toolkit, much akin to a box of legos. It strives to let you
build a client the way you want it. You will not find EPIC usable without
a script of some sort.

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 to 2.10.7
The upstream configure script has been updated so this will port will now
correctly link against the ports version of OpenSSL if requested.
The --with-perl option no longer needs an argument, it uses the perl binary
to find the correct paths.
The --with-tcl option takes a TCL_LIBDIR argument to specify exactly which
TCL version to use if multiple are installed.

irc/epic4: Remove obsolete TERMCAP option, link with libncurses alway
The TERMCAP option avoided linking with libcurses (which is symlinked to
libncurses) in order to link with libtermcap (which is also symlinked to
libncurses).
Remove the TERMCAP option completely and link directly to libncurses in
any case.

Remove the option of building against net/socks5, as this port will be

net/dante that epic will not build against without modifications.
