Remove ports of Adobe Reader 7 and the localized versions because of
security vulnerability. The print/acroreadwrapper new supports
acroread8 only.
Security: CVE-2008-2641
Security: CVE-2008-0883
Security: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-15.html
Downgrade to 7.0.1 temporarily mainly because the printing feature
does not work with Linux emulation environment. Bump PORTEPOCH.
Approved by: portmgr (krion)
- Use a distfile in tarball instead of one in rpm.
- Remove CONFLICTS. All of the localized versions can coexist now.
- Update the localized versions to 7.0.5 if possible.
- Add support for print/acroreadwrapper.

Reset maintainership to ports@ after ~4 months without any response to any
PR.
Thanks for contributing.
Since the acroread7 port is a somewhat important port for our users, I
will hand it over to emulation@ if no _active_ *committer* takes it
before the ports freeze.
While I'm here:
- fix a little nit in the csound port (I think the intention was to
create no backup file instead of creating one with a "-e" extension)
- set ARCH to i386 in the amd64 case for the acroread7 port. This
is a work-around to be able to install everything when a dependency
is not already installed (ARCH is read-only in sub-makes, so the
dependencies can't change it). This should be removed when the
dependencies are fixed or converted to use bsd.linux-rpm.mk. [1]

Finish the support for slave ports:
- allow slave ports to override CATEGORIES
- slave ports install in different directories, depending on PKGNAMEPREFIX
- new variable INSTDIR, abbreviation for the aformentioned directory
where the program is installed
- new variable CMD_SUFFIX, to be set by the slave ports, is appended
to the name of our wrapper script that wraps Adobe's wrapper
script, so that different slave ports will have different copies
of this script (if CMD_SUFFIX is foo, the user runs acroread7-foo
to start the program).
Add ADOBE_LANG variable so slave ports in different languages can
easily be made (Ion-Mihai Tetcu via chinsan). Let slave ports
override MAINTAINER and COMMENT.

Let slave ports override CONFLICTS.

The license for the Adobe Reader forbids any changes to the installed
files, even inserting the word "FreeBSD" into the wrapper script.
By cleverly spoofing "uname" output we can avoid patching that
script.

This sounded too much like a sales brochure for my liking, and I
think most users nowadays know about the benefits of PDF files.

Mega-patch to cleanup the ports infrastructure regarding our linux bits:
- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not neccesary anymore to override
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the linux X11 libraries
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
default (or overriden) linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
instead of a hardcoded reference.
- Change all ports to comply to the "new world order".
- The Ports Collection now allows to override the default linux_base port.
Specify e.g. OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=rh-9 in /etc/make.conf to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 (the logic is to use

Thanks to Warren Block, Florian Huebner, Vance Shipley, Bartlomiej
Syryjczyk, pav, asmodai, Dennis Cabooter, sonoro, Peter Czanik, and
gallatin for reminding me about this.
With portmgr hat on, mark both of these ports as RESTRICTED. According
to the following URL, to redistribute the distfiles for anything other
than internal company or individual use, a redistribution permission
form must be filled out:
