./net/bpalogin, BigPond Advance login client

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.0.2nb1, Package name: bpalogin-2.0.2nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

BPALogin is a replacement for the Telstra supplied client for connecting
and using Telstra's Big Pond Advance powered by Cable.

BPALogin has the following advantages over the standard Bigpond
LaunchPad client:

* Does not crash like the standard one
* Reconnects when there is a network problem
* Is available for most operating systems, whereas BPA
only support Windows and MacOS
* Can run as a service on WinNT/2000
* Comes with source code to allow endless customisation

Log message:
Remove the bpalogin package as per the thread on pkgsrc-users.

BPALogin is a replacement for the Telstra supplied client for connecting
and using Telstra's Big Pond Advance powered by Cable.

There is an open bug against it, http://gnats.netbsd.org/24771, which
suggests that it has been obsolete for a long time.

Remove example rc.d scripts from PLISTs.

These are now handled dynamically if INIT_SYSTEM is set to "rc.d", or
ignored otherwise.

Log message:
Point MAINTAINER to pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org in the case where no
developer is officially maintaining the package.

The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to \ 
"pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list).  Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

Log message:
Remove USE_PKGINSTALL from pkgsrc now that mk/install/pkginstall.mk
automatically detects whether we want the pkginstall machinery to be
used by the package Makefile.
