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.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
Remove painful examples of foo="", with particular prejudice against
constructions that parse out to [ -z "$foo" ] && foo=""
These are bad examples that get copied and pasted into new code, so the
hope is that with less bad examples there will be less need for me to
bring this up in review.
In a few of these files all that were changed were comments so that next
time I search for these patterns I won't trip on the file for no reason.
In a few places, add $FreeBSD$
No functional changes, so no PORTREVISION bumps
Change dependency on old p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-Base,
p5-IO-Compress-Zlib and p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2 modules to p5-IO-Compress.
Explicitly depend on p5-IO-Compress only if PERL_LEVEL < 500903
Bump PORTREVISION
1) After repocopies:
o Use SUB_FILES infrastructure to full effect simplifying the
port's Makefile logic.
- Switch from files/amphetadesk.sh to files/amphetadesk.in
2) Bump PORTREVISION since there was a PLIST change due to the new
rc.d script name.
PR: 117082 [1]
Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.
We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.
o Take over maintainership on previous maintainers request
o Uphold hier(7)
o Add rc.d(8) rc.subr(8) script
o Fix several warnings
o Change default rss channels to BSD based ones:
- http://www.freebsd.org/
- http://www.freshports.org/
- http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/73
- http://bsdnews.com/
o Fetch an updated full channel list from the Internet if none
previously exist
o Add fork(2)/exec(3) browser support with signal(3) SIGCHLD handling
o AmphetaDesk now allows per user configurations. Due to that, it
now requires a user with a home directory so that. One can use
the rc.d script to choose a user to launch AmphetaDesk from startup
or just to run it normally from any user other than root
o Bump PORTREVISION
