Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.13, Package name: elinks-0.13, Maintainer: base

ELinks is an advanced and well-established text-mode web (HTTP/FTP/..) browser
with a wide range of additional features and extensibility by the possibility
to plug in own scripts in Lua language. This project aims to provide
feature-rich version of Links, with more open patches/features inclusion
policy. This OpenSource project is covered by the GNU General Public License.

This is version current-0.13-stable. An update to the 0.12pre6 version
available in pkgsrc/www. Created due to SSL Errors that occur with some sites
and stop them from loading altogether under 0.12pre6. It is fixed with 0.13.
Patches are as per the pkgsrc/www version, only line numbers, etc were
updated so they applied cleanly. Some patches were no longer required because
the changes had been incorporated into 0.13.

Log message:
Fix typo in DESCR and add ensure correct Lua version in Makefile

As it is, Elinks 0.13 is not compatible with Lua5.2. There is a small patch
on the mailing list for Lua5.2 compatibility, but for now let's make sure
we are using Lua5.1.

Log message:
Update to elinks-current-0.13

This snapshot package was initially created to provide version 0.12pre6 when
www/elinks was on 0.11.3. However, www/elinks has been on 0.12pre6 for some
time now, making this wip package redundant.

PR 50105 was created to update www/elinks to elinks-current-0.13 because the
0.12pre6 version would fail to render some sites due to SSL connection errors.
This problem was reported on the ELinks Users mailing list and the advice was
to use version 0.13 which fixes this issue. After review and discussion it was
realised that 0.12pre6 is still the most recent/current unstable version,
however. No 0.13 tag exists in the Elinks git tree because Elinks is still
being developed against this version number. Therefore elinks-current-0.13 is a
development snapshot, albeit one that does not change frequently.

Therefore it was decided to close PR 50105 and update this snapshot package to
provide the 0.13 version.
