The Sigar API provides a portable interface for gathering system information
such as:
* System memory, swap, cpu, load average, uptime, loginsi
* Per-process memory, cpu, credential info, state, arguments, environment,
open files
* File system detection and metrics
* Network interface detection, configuration info and metrics
* TCP and UDP connection tables
* Network route table
This information is available in most operating systems, but each OS has their
own way(s) providing it. SIGAR provides developers with one API to access this
information regardless of the underlying platform. The core API is implemented
in pure C with bindings currently implemented for Java, Perl, Ruby, Python,
Erlang, PHP and C#. This port provides the Java bindings.

is being removed. No portrev bump needed since the kernel will continue to
accept this flag for old binaries even after support for it in new binaries
is removed.

After examining the LICENSE files in the existing tarball, Pedro came to
the conclusion that the license is a combination between GPLv2 and some
MIT-like licenses. The package is redistributable; the outdated
restriction is probably left over from a previous version, so it has
been removed.
rubyforge.org shutdown on May 15, 2014. This commit accounts for that by doing
several things:
- Deprecate ruby that had only rubyforge.org as MASTER_SITES (and so are now
only fetchable via our cache)
- Deprecate ports that depend on those
- Update the WWW pkg-descr line that points to rubyforge.org for rubygem ports
(which are still fetchable from rubygems.org)
The next step will be to remove rubyforge.org from bsd.sites.mk, after these
deprecated ports are deleted.
