            Bug ID: 278761
           Summary: www/tt-rss: update daemon (ttrssd) now fails with php
                    syntax error
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

Last night I updated www/tt-rss@php83 on FreeBSD-RELEASE-13.2-p11 GENERIC amd64
to the latest version (tt-rss-php83-g20240421,2). The main program itself is
working fine, but the update daemon, ttrssd, no longer starts up successfully:

# service ttrssd start
PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare get_pref() (previously declared in
/usr/local/www/tt-rss/include/functions.php:44) in
/usr/local/www/tt-rss/include/functions.php on line 45
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ttrssd: ERROR: Unknown database configured:

That's the whole thing - there's nothing after the final colon on the last
line. I'll point out that the two filenames are the same, the lines are off by
one, and at a quick glance by my non-PHP-expert eye only one of the two lines
(44) actually declares that function; the other just looks like a line *in* the
function. Maybe it's a "include vs. include-once" kind of thing?

I'd like to mention for the benefit of anyone who may also be facing this issue
that you can work around it by manually running the update script:

# su -m www -c "/usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/www/tt-rss/update.php --feeds
--quiet"

The tt-rss website has several other suggestions for how to update when you're
having problems with the standard way. Seems to be written from a Linuxish
point of view, but:
