--- Comment #3 from Robert Clausecker <fuz@FreeBSD.org> ---
Thank you for revisiting this.  I hope you didn't loose to much data.

The port still looks a bit weird in some ways:

 - you supply what you say to be an info page, but it looks like it's a man
   page.  Please treat it as such.

 - again, do not hard code gmake.  Use ${MAKE} instead.  It will resolve to=
 the
   correct make command as you have added USES=3Dgmake.

 - note that ARCH is armv6 or armv7 for arm, but your code looks like it
expects
   it to be arm.  Check if you can get that fixed.  Same for what you call =
x86.
   On FreeBSD, it's called i386.

 - the do-build very weird.  I'll see if I can get them simplified.

 - instead of REINPLACE_CMD in do-install, it might be better to use the .in
   mechanism (cf. =C2=A7 9.5 Porter's Handbook) to patch in the correct PRE=
FIX,
   ARCH and DISTVERSION.

 - do not hard-code /usr/local, use PREFIX and LOCALBASE instead (as
   appropriate).  Your port must not assume anything is found in /usr/local=
 and
   must not hard code this path anywhere.  Instead, rely on the variables
passed
   in by the ports framework.  You may want to add USES=3Dlocalbase, which =
adds
   -L${LOCALBASE}/lib and -I${LOCALBASE}/include to the appropriate variabl=
es.

 - in inc/crt/errno.bi, why not just #include <errno.h> to get the list of
   errno values?  This is much more future-proof than copying the list of
values.

 - The note you add in lang/freebasic/files/patch-inc_crt_freebsd_ctype.bi
   contradicts the LGPL license the port is supposed to have.  Also, by add=
ing
   this file to the port, you have already distributed it apart from the
   FreeBASIC distribution.  Please remove the note or bring it into complia=
nce
   with the license.  Same for the other notes.

 - Please remove -Wfatal-errors from the Makefile.  Future compiler versions
may
   have different error messages and we don't want the port to stop building
   because the compiler feels like warning about some random irrelevant thi=
ng.=20
   Same goes for -Werror and similar.

 - Do not override the CFLAGS you receive from the environment, only ever
append
   to them.  Ports must obey CFLAGS given to them by the user or the ports
   framework.  Same for CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc.

 - Do not set CC in your port.  Instead use whatever value CC has been set =
to
by
   the ports framework.  If you need gcc to build this port, add USE_GCC=3D=
yes to
   the port makefile, which will cause it to select a version of gcc.  Do n=
ot
   try to guess what the compiler is.

 - Do not set prefix.  Obey whatever value PREFIX has been set to by the po=
rt
   framework.  This value may or may not be /usr/local.

 - if you need commands like dos2unix installed, make sure to add them to
   BUILD_DEPENDS.  All dependencies of the port must be listed there.  I
   recommend you use Poudriere to build-test the port.  Poudriere builds the
   port in a jail that only has the listed dependencies installed, making it
   easy to check if you forgot any.

 - instead of running dos2unix in your makefile, you can add USES=3Ddos2uni=
x to
   the port makefile, which will automatically convert all line endings in =
the
   project.  See =C2=A7 17.19 Porter's Handbook for details.

 - to use ncurses, add USES=3Dncurses to the port makefile.  Your port MUST=
 obey
   NCURSESINC, NCURSESLIB, NCURSESRPATH, etc. (see Mk/Uses/ncurses.mk) to f=
ind
   the correct ncurses.  There can be multiple copies of the library instal=
led
   and only the one these variables indicate is correct.

 - please remove WWW: from pkg-descr and instead add a WWW variable to the =
port
   Makefile.  This is another ecent change in the port framework.
