Log message:
games/nethack-lib: really force the use of ncurses.

Use PREFER.curses=pkgsrc despite objections of pkglint. It's the only thing
that works. buildlink3/bsd.builtin.mk allows it.

Log message:
games/nethack*: enable curses user interface

The "nethack" wrapper script that papers over the existence of nethack-tty
and nethack-x11 has been made more like the original way to select UIs
(since there are now 3, and each game binary supports more than one of them).

Log message:
games/nethack-lib: updated NetHack to version 3.6.7.

NetHack 3.6.7 is the official release of NetHack that follows NetHack 3.6.6.

This release primarily corrects a security issue present in NetHack versions
3.6.2, 3.6.3, 3.6.4, 3.6.5, and 3.6.6. For details about the security issues
please see https://www.nethack.org/security. You are encouraged to update to
NetHack 3.6.7 as soon as possible.

Here's a brief synopsis of the handful of bug fixes included in NetHack 3.6.7:

    invalid status highlight color could be maliciously used to corrupt memory
    formatting corpse names used internal buffers differently from formatting
other objects and could potentially clobber memory
    during engraving, spaces were counted instead of non-space (cherry-pick of
4e0a1e04 from NetHack-3.7)
    avoid potential buffer overflow in append_str()
    resolve missing dependency in NetHack.sln
    code in include/tradstdc.h was trying to suppress warn_unused result by
defining warn_unused_result to an empty string and that began causing a build
error within a system-supplied header file cdefs.h when using Ubuntu Impish
21.10; disable that for any Linux and macOS gcc unless GCC_URWARN is defined to
force it back into effect
    update_inventory() after leash goes slack
    player assigned name for monsters, specific objects, or object types could
be longer than what was intented to be allowed; for 'curses', much longer
    curses: cherry-picked selectsaved code from 3.7 for menu of save files
    NetHackW: fix delayed rendering of cursor when using farlook

Log message:
The NetHack DevTeam is announcing the release of NetHack 3.6.6 on
March 8, 2020

NetHack 3.6.6 is the official release of NetHack that follows NetHack 3.6.5.

This release primarily corrects a security issue present in NetHack
versions 3.6.1, 3.6.2, 3.6.3, 3.6.4 and 3.6.5.
For details about the security issues please see https://www.nethack.org/security.
You are encouraged to update to NetHack 3.6.6 as soon as possible.

Here's a brief synopsis of the handful of bug fixes included in NetHack 3.6.6:

 *  invalid status highlight color could be maliciously used to corrupt memory
 *  formatting corpse names used internal buffers differently from formatting
 *      other objects and could potentially clobber memory
 *  avoid divide by 0 crash if 'bogusmon' (file of bogus monster types) is empty
 *  avoid #wizrumorcheck crash if either 'rumors.tru' or 'rumors.fal' or both
 *      were empty when makedefs built 'rumors'
 *  avoid "<mon>'s glorkum pass harmlessly through the shade" \ 
for weaponless mon

All of the fixes have been published on the public Git repository for the game.
A more complete list can be found in the game's sources in doc/fixes36.6. As usual,
a warning that some entries in that file may also be "spoilers".

Existing saved games and bones files from 3.6.0 through to 3.6.5 should work with
3.6.6, assuming that the same build configuration options were used.

The following command can be used on most platforms to help confirm the location of
various files that NetHack may use:
    nethack --showpaths

This release primarily corrects security issues present in NetHack versions
3.6.0, 3.6.1, 3.6.2, 3.6.3 and 3.6.4.

                subject to a buffer overflow
CVE-2019-19905	Privilege escalation/remote code execution/crash in
                configuration parsing

You are encouraged to update to NetHack 3.6.5 as soon as possible.

Here's a brief synopsis of the handful of bug fixes included in NetHack 3.6.5:

    fix accessing mons[-1] when trying to gate in a non-valid demon
    fix accessing mons[-1] when monster figures out if a tin cures stoning
    have string_for_opt() return empty_optstr on failure
    ensure existing callers of string_for_opt() check return value
      before using it
    fix potential buffer overflow in add_menu_coloring()
    fix potential buffer overflow in sym_val()
    fix potential buffer overflow in pline(), raw_printf(), and
      config_error_add()
    fix potential buffer overflow in choose_windows()
    use vsnprintf instead of vsprintf in pline.c where possible
    Windows: includes a fix from a 3.6.4 post-release update where
      OPTIONS=map_mode:fit_to_screen could cause a game start failure
    Windows: users with C-locale unmappable names could get game start failure

All of the fixes have been incrementally published on the public Git
repository for the game. A more complete list can be found in the game's
sources in doc/fixes36.5. As usual, a warning that some entries in that
file may also be "spoilers".

Existing saved games and bones files from 3.6.0 through to 3.6.4 should
work with 3.6.5, assuming that the same build configuration options were
used.

all: migrate homepages from http to https

pkglint -r --network --only "migrate"

As a side-effect of migrating the homepages, pkglint also fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines. These and the new homepages have been
checked manually.
