WHAT IS AMANDA?
---------------
This is a release of Amanda, the Advanced Maryland Automatic
Network Disk Archiver. Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many
computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive.
Here are some features of Amanda:
* written in C, freely distributable.
* built on top of standard backup software: Unix dump/restore, and
later GNU Tar and others.
* will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting
finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to
tape. For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host
with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours.
* does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape.
===> The following configuration options are available for amanda-server-3.5.1_1,1:
GNUTAR=on: use GNU tar
PLOT=off: Enable plotting, requires X11 libraries
S3=off: Enable Amazon S3 device support
SAMBA=off: Enable the use of smbclient
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
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.

*/*: Remove redundant '-*' from CONFLICTS definitions
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").

Remove libintl.so.9 compatibility link that was added in r374303 to
prevent massive PORTREVISION bumps. Bump dependent ports that have not
been bumped since.
Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

misc/amanda-server: Mark jobs unsafe
I'm not sure why I've never seen this before, but I've recently seen both
amanda-client and amanda-server fail due to parallel building errors
this week on separate runs. Limit building to 1 CPU and remove "The"
from the start of the COMMENT while here.
Stage support
I merged the 2 plists to prevent orphans to be reported during make check-plist
of misc/amanda-server, as it installs into stage some files already provided by
misc/amanda-client
Bump PORTREVISION as the install/deinstall scripts were revised

Feature safe: yes
Remove more tags from pkg-descr files fo the form:
- Name
em@i.l
or variations thereof. While I'm here also fix some whitespace and other
formatting errors, including moving WWW: to the last line in the file.
- DISTNAME= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION} is the default and not needed.

- Amanda/Constants.pm is installed by amanda-client, and it includes
constat variable as of client components only. When amanda-server
installed, Constants.pm should include also server components.
- To work around it, use pkg-install/pkg-deinstall script to tweak
this variable by inplace updating.

Finally upgrade amanda-{server,client} to 3.2.0. Old 2.6.x was
repocopied as amanda26-{server,client}. Please stay in 2.6.x branch
if you are conservative. Yes, you should so for important
infrastructre like as backup system :-).
New 3.2.0 port includes:
- Use misc/amanda-perl-wrapper as perl5 interpreter which is linked
with libthr.so to avoid thread problem.
- Unique UID, GID assigned and use it by default. amanda user/group
will be added automatically when not exist.
- Deprecate AMANDA_{CONFIG,TAPE} port knobs. They can be set in
runtime config easily.

- Upgrade to 2.6.1.
- Turn on SSH auth by default.
- Sorry, previous default path of $AMANDA_DATES was typo. Fixed here
it should be. Please take care when upgrading.

Finally upgrade to 2.6.0p2.
Old 2.5.x version is repocopied as misc/amanda25-{server,client}.
If you have backup clients which cannot be upgraded to 2.6.x, use these
old ports or disable usetimestamps option (enabled by default, which
is incompatible with 2.5.x) in amanda.conf.
More minor improvements will follow.

Urged by: many
Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- Fix SSH option and openssl related scripts [1].
- Change UNIQUENAME and LATEST_LINK to use separated options db.

- Shorten long Makefile by collect common options/variables to one

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.

Whoa there, boy, that's a mighty big commit y'all have there...
Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.
