Description

GConf extends the concept of a configuration registry. It provides a simple way for applications and administrators to store data; often GConf is used to store preferences for applications.

Some of the features of GConf are:

\* Documentation for each configuration key, so that administrators
  can better modify the value.

\* Notifications to interested applications when configuration data
  is changed.  The notification service works across networks,
  affecting all login sessions for a single user.

\* Proper locking so that configuration data doesn't get corrupted
  when accessed by multiple applications at the same time.

*: bump PORTREVISION for the textproc/libxml2 2.15 shared library change (#848)

`textproc/libxml2` 2.15 changed SONAME from `libxml2.so.2` to `libxml2.so.16` **and** removed ELF symbol versioning entirely — the new library defines no `LIBXML2_*` versions at all. Consumers built against the old library were never rebuilt, so they still record a dependency on `libxml2.so.2` plus version requirements nothing can satisfy, and fail at load time: ``` ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.2: version LIBXML2_2.4.30 required by /usr/local/lib/libevdocument3.so.4 not defined ``` ### Scope `Tools/scripts/bump_revision.pl -f -l textproc/libxml2` — **436 Makefiles**: 323 revisions incremented, 113 gained a `PORTREVISION` line. The diff touches nothing but `PORTREVISION` lines (verified: `git diff -U0` shows no other changed line), and spot-checked ports still …

*/*: add CPE identifiers from the matching FreeBSD ports

mport audit matches installed packages against sec.midnightbsd.org by CPE, so a port without one is invisible to it regardless of how vulnerable it is. These 126 ports had no CPE while the corresponding FreeBSD port did, so the vendor and product were copied from there rather than guessed. Sampled against the audit API to confirm the identifiers resolve, e.g. cad/gtkwave tonybybell:gtkwave 82 CVEs archivers/libunrar rarlab:unrar 12 audio/espeak-ng espeak-ng:espeak-ng 5 archivers/minizip-ng zlib-ng:minizip-ng 3 audio/faust grame:faust 3 cad/admesh admesh_project:admesh 3 Three ports were deliberately skipped: archivers/p5-Archive-Tar, …
