NEST is a simulator for spiking neural network models that focuses on the
dynamics, size and structure of neural systems rather than on the exact
morphology of individual neurons. The development of NEST is coordinated
by the NEST Initiative.
NEST is ideal for networks of spiking neurons of any size, for example:
* Models of information processing e.g. in the visual or auditory cortex of
mammals,
* Models of network activity dynamics, e.g. laminar cortical networks or
balanced random networks,
* Models of learning and plasticity.
===> The following configuration options are available for nest-3.10_1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
PYTHON=on: Python bindings or 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.

Drop dependency on devel/openmp
- Drop if devel/llvm* was used as a substitute
Approved by: yuri, rene (earlier version)
Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23020
math/gsl: update to 2.6
- math/p5-Math-GSL does not seem to have any upstream activity to make it work
with this version -> mark it broken
- this also breaks the two consumers of this port
- biology/gemma: has a conflict with cblas, and is makred broken.

science/nest: fix build with GCC-based architectures
nestkernel/simulation_manager.h needs include sys/time.h for timeval struct when
compiling with GCC.
PR: 239482
Approved by: yuri (maintainer), linimon (mentor)
Bump PORTREVISION for ports depending on the canonical version of GCC
as defined in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk which has moved from GCC 8.3
to GCC 9.1 under most circumstances now after revision 507371.
This includes ports
- with USE_GCC=yes or USE_GCC=any,
- with USES=fortran,
- using Mk/bsd.octave.mk which in turn features USES=fortran, and
- with USES=compiler specifying openmp, nestedfct, c11, c++0x, c++11-lang,
c++11-lib, c++14-lang, c++17-lang, or gcc-c++11-lib
plus, everything INDEX-11 shows with a dependency on lang/gcc9 now.
