- There are multiple ports which has MYSQL options and are non-DEFAULT.
Most of the time committers actually forget to check with the OPTION
enabled and in some cases they are BROKEN with newr versions of mysql.
So test with different versions of mysql and mark IGNOPRE_WITH_MYSQL
appropriately. Due to the EOL of 5.7 this has not been checked.
- Unbreak sysutils/cfengine* with MySQL 8.0 and later
- The primary purpose of running this check is having statistics of the
MySQL usability over MariaDB to explore the future possibility of
shifting to MariaDB as the default as major ports upstream have moved
their codebase to support MariaDB over MySQL.
- The following actions will also be taken after the sunset of MySQL 5.7
If a port is broken on all instances of MySQL/MariaDB:
- If a port has the option of multiple DB backends and MySQL is the
default then the DEFAULT will be changed to PGSQL/SQLITE before
2024Q1. And the OPTION will be removed before 2024Q2. If a
MAINTAINER is aware about such cases and want to prefer PGSQL over
SQLITE or vice versa please do so at your own accord. Otherwise
PGSQL will be preferred over SQLITE.
- If a port has the option of multiple DB backends and MySQL is not
the default then the the OPTION will be removed before 2024Q1.

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.
This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries
of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic
attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than
one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the
Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr
files in order to preserve them.
There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These
ports will not be touched in this commit.
The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port
Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as
deprecated.
