New Revision: 402882
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/402882

Log:
  Remove x11-toolkit/qt4-gui's pkg-message.
  
  Back in mid-2012 (ports revisions r297367 and r299321), pkg-message was
  added to the port suggesting changes to the default shared memory limits in
  loader.conf(5). Since then, the default limits have been changed and the
  values suggested by the port are no longer sensible (base r209037, present
  in all supported FreeBSD releases).
  
  According to theraven@:
    Suggesting lowering the maximum number of pages available for shared pages
    doesn't seem sensible. The other default limits look as if they ought to
    be high enough (kern.ipc.shmseg is the number of shm segments that each
    process can have open, so should be fine. kern.ipc.shmmni is the total
    number of shm objects, so might need lowering).
  
  Follow his advice and drop the suggestions from pkg-message.

   Logstash has been updated to the 2.1.0 release. The embedded ElasticSearch
   instance is no longer supported. If in use, end users must update
   logstash.conf to point to the URL of an ElasticSearch instance.
