textproc/sphinxsearch: return to the pool
Upstream switched to a commercial license years ago, and so we cannot
include more recent versions in the ports. Despite indications on the
website that they would switch back to GPL, this hasn't happened in
more than 5 years, so I guess it is never going to happen. From an
opensource point of view, this software is essentially abandonware.
However, given there is an actively developed upstream project, and
that project does provide FreeBSD binaries, it doesn't feel right to
deprecate the software entirely. |

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.

Fix CONFLICTS entries of multiple ports
There have been lots of missing CONFLICTS_INSTALL entries, either
because conflicting ports were added without updating existing ports,
due to name changes of generated packages, due to mis-understanding
the format and semantics of the conflicts entries, or just due to
typoes in package names.
This patch is the result of a comparison of all files contained in
the official packages with each other. This comparison was based on
packages built with default options and may therefore have missed
further conflicts with optionally installed files.
Where possible, version numbers in conflicts entries have been
generalized, some times taking advantage of the fact that a port (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above ) |

*/*: Remove redundant '-[0-9]*' from CONFLICTS
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").
Many CONFLICTS definitions used patterns like "bash-[0-9]*" to filter
for the bash package in any version. But that pattern is functionally
identical with just "bash".

Multiple ports: improve regex compliance
These changes largely fall into just two categories:
1. Need textproc/gsed for GNU extensions
2. Extraneous escapes that can go away
For #1, there's a further subdivision into those that require autoconf magic
and those that can get away with BINARY_ALIAS=sed=${LOCALBASE}/bin/gsed.
-CURRENT will soon gain GNU extensions, but these will take longer to get to
all supported releases; we must switch them to gsed to ensure we're actually
properly building them as intended.
For #2, I've fixed these as I can and we should upstream these fixes.

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.

- Add an ID64 knob to toggle support for 64 bit identifiers in sphinxsearch.
- Force library dependency on expat. The configure script will automatically add
expat support if it detects it on the system, and there's no way of overriding
that. Means that previously, when installed from a binary package built on the
cluster, there was no expat support compiled in, but when compiled from source
there frequently would be. Therefore, for consistencies' sake, always depend
on expat.

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.

Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version
2. Commercial license is also available for embedded use.
Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL
databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources
support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL, or from
an XML pipe.
As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially decoded as
SQL Phrase Index.
