Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Newsstar fetches news and posts it to a local server; INN, s-news and sn are supported, and it should be easy to adapt for other servers with some configuration and extra scripts. It's designed for Unix-like systems, and all the development was done on Linux. There are already plenty of other programs to do this, but what makes newsstar special is that it can make multiple simultaneous connections, not only to one server, but to several, supporting up to 10 threads. Before fetching each article it checks that it hasn't already been downloaded by another thread or in a previous session. It can also pipeline article requests to make better use of available bandwidth. I wrote it because a number of ISPs I have used suffer from unreliable newsfeeds. There is an excellent free server made available by news.individual.net, but it can be a bit slow at times, and using external servers uses more bandwidth. Therefore I wanted a program which could fetch whatever articles my ISP has available, but use the foreign server to avoid missing posts or getting them very late, and to do it as fast as possible.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles

Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on

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.

news/newsstar: fix OpenSSL detection & cleanups

OpenSSL detection was broken because it looked for SSL_library_init(),
which has been gone since OpenSSL 1.1.0 already. Patch to look for
OPENSSL_init_ssl() instead.

Replace @exec by @postexec.

Add USES=ncurses.

Rearrange Makefile to reduce complaints from portclippy and portlint.

Support LIBS like LDFLAGS.

- Add LIBS="${LIBS}" to MAKE_ENV and CONFIGURE_ENV.
- Add an option helper for LIBS.
- Adjust all ports that already use LIBS.  Also remove references to
  PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS while here.
- Some ports did not support having a LIBS environment variable and
  required additional patches.

Somewhat simplified a linker command line looks like:

${CC} ${src_LDFLAGS} ${LDFLAGS} ${src_LIBS} ${LIBS}

where src_LDFLAGS and src_LIBS are controlled by upstream and LDFLAGS and
LIBS can be controlled by us.  If possible -L and -l flags need to be

- Update to upstream release 1.5.4 (2009)
  + This unbreaks the build, removing BROKEN= tag.

- For examples, use [NO]PORTEXAMPLES instead of [NO]PORTDOCS

- HAS_CONFIGURE -> GNU_CONFIGURE

- Drop all patches from files/,
  + patch-configure.in and patch-newsstar.in integrated in upstream
  + patch-Makefile.am no longer needed after further upstream fixes

- Drop USE_AUTOTOOLS, we're no longer patching *.ac/*.am files.

- Mark MAKE_JOBS_SAFE for parallel builds.

- Note I cannot actually test the resulting executable for lack of local
  news servers, hence I'm not taking maintainership either.

Feature safe: yes

Set USE_PERL5/WANT_PERL as appropriate, for ports that either depend on
perl unconditonally, or conditionally.  To be able to conditionalize the
inclusion of bsd.perl.mk, they now need to be defined before the inclusion
of bsd.port.pre.mk.

Add newsstar, a program that fetches news from a number of remote NNTP servers
and posts it to a local server (INN or sn), and also posts outgoing articles
from the local server to the remote ones. It uses a configurable number of
multiple  processes or "threads" to maximise bandwidth utilisation. The threads
are coordinated to avoid downloading multiple copies of the same article.
