s6-dns is a suite of DNS client programs and libraries for Unix systems,
as an alternative to the BIND, djbdns or other DNS clients.

Authoritative dns server for A/AAAA container records. Forwards other
request to host's /etc/resolv.conf. It's mostly intended to be used
with netavark which launch it automatically if both are installed.

Cascade is a purpose-built, standalone DNSSEC signer, shaped by the
real-world demands of TLD operators. People for whom safety, stability
and speed aren’t features — they’re the foundation.

dnst :: Domain Name System Tools - a toolset to assist DNS operators
with zone and nameserver maintenance.
dnst is intended to offer both:
- a supported drop-in replacement and upgrade path for a subset of the
popular NLnet Labs LDNS example tools, re-implemented in the Rust
programming language powered by the NLnet Labs domain Rust library
- an evolving toolbox of commands to aid DNS operators in the
maintenance and operation of their zones and nameservers.

tldx helps you brainstorm available domain names fast.
Features:
- Smart keyword-based domain permutations (prefixes, suffixes, TLDs)
- Fast and concurrent availability checks with RDAP
- Streams results as they're found
- Supports multiple output formats (text, json, json-stream, json-array, csv)
- Supports TLD presets to quickly select groups of common or curated TLD sets
- Optional filtering by domain length
- Great for technical founders, indie hackers, and naming brainstorms

displaying them in a human-readable, colored format
that includes type, name, TTL, and value.

Gitlab requires net-http 0.4.1:
Because faraday >= 2, < 2.5 could not be found in locally installed gems
and faraday >= 2.5, < 2.12.1 could not be found in locally installed gems,
faraday >= 2, < 2.12.1 cannot be used.
And because faraday >= 2.12.1 depends on faraday-net_http >= 2.0, < 3.5,
faraday >= 2 requires faraday-net_http >= 2.0, < 3.5.
Because faraday-net_http >= 3.4.0 depends on net-http >= 0.5.0
and faraday-net_http >= 2.0, < 3.4.0 could not be found in locally installed
gems,
faraday-net_http >= 2.0 requires net-http >= 0.5.0.
Thus, faraday >= 2 requires net-http >= 0.5.0.
So, because Gemfile depends on faraday ~> 2
and Gemfile depends on net-http = 0.4.1,
version solving has failed.
While fixing the problem, moved gitlab used packages to own package names with a
PKGNAMESUFFIX of `-gitlab`.
This should make the gitlab package much more stable if updates in the ports are done.
Using this module it's possible to create scripts for efficient tasks
that would require complex shell scripts with multiple calls of knotc.
For communication with the daemon it uses the same mechanism as the
knotc utility, i.e. communication via a Unix socket.

This module provides a Perl interface to the ldns library from NLnet
Labs and depends on it being available. The module can either compile
and use those libraries internally or link to already available ldns
library given that the version is high enough. In both cases it relies
on a sufficiently recent version of OpenSSL being present.
This module is written as part of the Zonemaster project, and therefore
primarily exposes the functionality needed for that. Since Zonemaster is
a diagnostic tool, that means the functions most used are those for
looking things up and inspecting them.

KDE's 6th Megarelease - Alpha
Wednesday, 8 November 2023
En route to the new Plasma, Frameworks and Gear
Every few years we port the key components of our software to a new
version of Qt, taking the opportunity to remove cruft and leverage the
updated features the most recent version of Qt has to offer us.
It has been nearly 10 years since the last big release of our flagship
Plasma desktop environment, and the time has come again. KDE is making
available today the Alpha version of all the software we will include in
a megarelease scheduled for the end of February 2024.
Announcement: https://kde.org/announcements/megarelease/6/alpha/
Obtained from: https://github.com/tcberner/kde6-overlay/
Further ports specific changes:
* multimedia/phonon: is now flavored for Qt5 and Qt6
libasr will be maintained only as part of OpenSMTPD.
The current port has known security fixes that were addressed in the
bundled copy of OpenSMTPD but not in the libasr-portable.
The libasr-portable repository on github will be archived soon.
