Desktop-installer has been stable for some time now, so it's time to
commit to a stable UI for a while. No major UI changes until v2.0.
This release contains a few minor fixes and enhancements since 0.8.3.
Numerous basic improvements to nascent NetBSD support
Add popup notifications and expanded notifications to battery-shutdown monitor script
Run battery-shutdown from cron rather than as a daemon
Add option to install freebsd-update-notify (popup notification for available updates)
Changes: https://github.com/outpaddling/desktop-installer/releases
Replace SLiM login manager (unmaintained for 10 years) with SDDM
SDDM also automatically detects multiple desktop environments (DEs)
Add SDDM option for Gnome, LXDE, LXQT
Other minor enhancements to streamline package install sequence

Commit b7f05445c0 has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries
of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic
attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than
one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the
Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr
files in order to preserve them.
There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These
ports will not be touched in this commit.
The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port
Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as
deprecated.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add "custom" option for installing DEs and WMs not explicitly listed
in the menu. Desktop-installer can now configure any DE or WM for
which a port exists.
Properly handle recommended ports with no binary package
More rational default response for updating system before setup
Properly report deleted ports
