Pwgen is a small, powerful, GPL'ed password generator.
This version of pwgen was written by Theodore Ts'o
<tytso@alum.mit.edu>. It is modelled after a program originally written
by Brandon S. Allbery, and then later extensively modified by Olaf Titz,
Jim Lynch, and others. It was rewritten from scratch by Theodore Ts'o
because the original program was somewhat of a hack, and thus hard to
maintain, and because the licensing status of the program was unclear.

Replace pwgen 1 with pwgen 2. The latter is a continuation of the former
by a different author, with some serious bugs fixed. We were pretty much
the only OS that still shipped pwgen 1, and for good reason: due to the
way it implements phoneme equivalence and the way it tracks the length of
the generated string, it only works correctly 16% of the time. This was
not possible to fix without a major rewrite, which is precisely what the
author of pwgen 2 did.
Discussed with both maintainers and #bsdports.
- DISTNAME= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION} is the default and not needed.
