Firefox is an award winning, free, open-source web browser for many platforms
and is based on the Mozilla codebase. It is small, fast and easy to use, and
offers many advanced features:
o Popup Blocking
o Tabbed Browsing
o Live Bookmarks (ie. RSS)
o Extensions
o Themes
o FastFind
o Improved Security
This is a pre-compiled Linux/i386 version, able to run plugins from that
platform.

gecko: drop unmaintained linux-* ports
- Hang or fail to start after lemul branch was merged
- Later versions depend on more unimplemented linux syscalls
- Linux plugins after FF52 are limited to Flash which works fine via
nspluginwrapper
- linux-c6-gtk3 package is N/A, so cannot be update to non-vulnerable version
- Autodetect the installed linux_base port and use LINUX_DEFAULT only as
a last resort.
- Construct a list of DISTFILES for every architecture (amd64, i386).
Select one list for regular make and all lists for make makesum so linux
ports can have one combined distinfo file.
- Set DIST_SUBDIR?=centos so there's only one copy of common distfiles.
- Use MASTER_SITES and DISTFILES groups so make fetch is a bit smarter.
- Regenerate all distinfo files.
- For linux_base-c6 (just like linux_base-c7 already does) turn bin, lib,
lib64 and sbin into symbolic links to the same directory under usr.
This fixes the problem where some programs/libraries exist under / on
FreeBSD and /usr on Linux or vice versa and then depending on the order
of search paths Linux programs may run/load FreeBSD programs/libraries
and fail.
- Turn usr/share/icons into a symbolic link to LOCALBASE/share/icons so
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- In Uses/linux.mk use the loop variable directly when appending to
*_DEPENDS. Helper variables derived from the loop variable aren't
expanded causing *_DEPENDS to be incorrect.
- Bump all ports with more than one value in USE_LINUX.
PR: 211645
Reported by: jkim
- Replace Mk/bsd.linux-apps.mk and Mk/bsd.linux-rpm.mk with
Mk/Uses/linux.mk.
- Replace USE_LINUX=yes with USES+=linux and USE_LINUX=(.*) with
USES+=linux:\1 in all ports.
- Replace USE_LINUX_APPS with USE_LINUX in all ports.
- Use INSTALL_SCRIPT instead of INSTALL_PROGRAM to install scripts in some
ports.
- When USE_LINUX_RPM is defined, simplify the way DISTFILES and EXTRACT_ONLY
are defined.
- Remove BRANDELF_DIRS and BRANDELF_FILES handling. In the very rare cases
that it is still necessary ports can run ${BRANDELF} from post-patch.
- Remove AUTOMATIC_PLIST handling. Only one port used it.
- Fix Linux MASTER_SITES.
- Replace OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT and OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS with
default versions framework.

build5 contains a mozjemalloc fix but we're using bundled
jemalloc 3.6.0-204-gb4acf73. So, no PORTREVISION bump
for native version. Language packs only contain changes for
timestamps or slave hostnames aka build noise.

Thunderbird 31.7.0 wasn't actually released yet despite
THUNDERBIRD_31_7_0_RELEASE tag in comm-esr31 hg repo 1 week old.
Based on #releng IRC logs it seems there was an issue with automation.
Hopefully, upstream doesn't abandon 31.7.0 in favor of 38.0.
To avoid in future testing patience (BROKEN vs. PORTEPOCH) due to
discrepancy with release announcments let's fall back to candidates.
