KDE today announces the release of KDE Frameworks 6.2.0.
KDE Frameworks are 72 addon libraries to Qt which provide a wide variety
of commonly needed functionality in mature, peer reviewed and well
tested libraries with friendly licensing terms. For an introduction see
the KDE Frameworks release announcement.
This release is part of a series of planned monthly releases making
improvements available to developers in a quick and predictable manner.

Emacs requires mutually exclusive build parameters depending on whether
the user is running under X11 or Wayland. Rather than require either
set of users to build a custom package, create a new wayland flavor, and
use default options appropriate for users running under X.

* the actual test run used MAKE_ENV but should use TEST_ENV
* also, ctest(1) defaults to running tests serially, so add
CTEST_PARALLEL_LEVEL here and set it to _MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER.
NOTE: cmake 3.29 changes semantics for _MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER empty or 0.
This was developed together with diizzy@ as a result of analysing
performance regressions from PR 278500.

Fail fast when pw(8) fails to create a user or a group. Especially when it is
not the last command in the pre-install script then the exit code will be 0 and
the failure will go unnoticed.

post-install-DOCS-on copies all files/directories under ${WRKSRC}/doc/
into ${STAGEDIR}${RUBY_DOCDIR}/, then installs ${WRKSRC}/ChangeLog to
same directory. But there is ChangeLog directory under ${WRKSRC}/doc/.
As a result there is already ${STAGEDIR}${RUBY_DOCDIR}/ChangeLog
directory when ${WRKSRC}/ChangeLog is tried to be installed as
${WRKSRC}/doc/ChangeLog. Previously install(1) regards it as non-fatal
and build continues. But on latest -CURRENT the command regards it as
fatal and results in build error. So fix it by moving
${WRKSRC}/ChangeLog to ${WRKSRC}/doc/ChangeLog/ChangeLog at extract
phase.
Bump PORTREVISION as plist is changed.

For each feature (see in Mk/Features) users can now set these variables
in their make.conf. Using LTO as an example.
To enable globally:
WITH_LTO= yes
To disable globally (for example ssp is enabled by default):
WITHOUT_LTO= yes
To enable for a specific list of ports:
WITH_LTO_PORTS= lang/perl5.36
To disable for a specific list of ports:
WITHOUT_LTO_PORTS= lang/perl5.36

Test Plan:
Take cmake.mk for example. Choosing a port with USES=cmake and running
`make -V CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` gives "Release" and
`make -V CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE WITH_DEBUG=yes` gives "Debug". However,
`make -V CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE WITH_DEBUG_PORTS=this/port` still gives "Release"
unless this change is applied.

Reminder: Plasma6 Desktop will require applications and kf5 from
the overlay to be usable without conflicts.
This brings gecko ports in line with rust's embedded llvm for those
who want to try LTO. It also seems to improve overall behaviour
of gecko ports, based on single-installation experience.
The minimal version is set to 1.1.1 because it is required by devel/py-cattrs.
Convert ports to use PY_EXCEPTIONGROUP to simplify Makefile.
With hat: python
Add indirect to list of arguments for USES=cmake. cmake:indirect is intended primarily
for ports, which use meson or pep517 for build, but rely on cmake underneath.
Update documentation while here.

Add a new variable DBD_MYSQL, use that in *_DEPENDS and add mysql to USES
where required. DBD_MYSQL will automatically set the correct DBD dependency.
In cd16748194 databases/p5-DBD-mysql was updated to 5.x, in 5.x the
support for MariaDB was removed and only MySQL >= 8.0 is supported.
In the 4.x releases MariaDB is still supported, according to upstream 4.x
will still be supported for a while [1], so use that for now when we detect
that MYSQL_FLAVOUR is set to mariadb. databases/p5-DBD-mysql4 was added in
d95f49cb3b.
DBD:MariaDB would be another alternative, but migrating to it might need
more analysis than just staying with the 4.x releases of p5-DBD-mysql. This
thread on the amavis-users mailing list has a very good summary [2] from
the author of DBD:MariaDB.
This includes ideas and suggestions from vvd and mat. Thanks!
