help2man is a tool for automatically generating simple manual pages from
program output.
It is intended to provide an easy way for software authors to include a
manual page in their distribution without having to maintain that document.
Given a program which produces resonably standard --help and --version
outputs, help2man will attempt to re-arrange that output into something
which resembles a manual page.
===> The following configuration options are available for help2man-1.49.3_1:
NLS=on: Native Language Support
===> 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.

Update to 1.47.14
- Revert --version parsing change from 1.47.13, which had unintended
consequences for some version strings. In short, it is not possible to
unambiguously determine the split between the package/program name and version
in some of the supported formats. Multi-word package names are supported only
in the "program (GNU package) version" variant (closes: #958345).
Update to 1.47.13
- Merge change from Po-Chuan Hsieh to suppress creation of an empty pkglibdir
when nls is disabled.
- Remove install_dirs target entirely, add explicit $(MKINSTALLDIRS) before each
$(INSTALL_{DATA,PROGRAM}) call.
- Update parsing of --version to allow multi-word programs when constructing the
placeholder NAME paragraph (thanks to Jarno Suni).
Update to 1.47.10
- Change maintainer sanity check in debian/rules to use the contents of README
rather than the mtime, which may be have been modified by dpkg-source (closes:
#925136).
Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info
After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them

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.
Remove a patch from devel/gmake so the port no longer depends on
print/texinfo which requires gmake. To break this circular dependency
gmake-lite was introduced. This can be removed now as well.
