- Description:
- LibSwift is the reference UDP-based implementation of IETF RFC7574,
a multi-peer transport layer protocol. Its mission is to disseminate
content among a swarm of peers.
Given a root hash, the data is received from whatever source available
and data integrity is checked cryptographically with Merkle hash
trees.

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.

Mark ports broken on mips64 that are already broken on powerpc64. In
most cases, the failure mode is the same. Also, mark them broken on
mips when necessary.
While here, pet portlint.
