>Description:

Please repocopy math/qhull --> math/qhull5.

Why?  A new version of qhull has come out.  The library has changed its name from libqhull.so to libqhull6.so.  And who knows what API changes have come with it.  So my intention is to change math/qhull to math/qhull5, and then change the math/qhull port.  It is likely that at least some of the dependent ports will need the new qhull in due course.

Other actions. Before I update math/qhull to the new version, the following ports will need changes and a port revision bump: games/kdegames4, math/labplot, math/octave-devel, math/octave, and math/plplot.  These are maintained by kde at FreeBSD.org, ports at FreeBSD.org, and maho at FreeBSD.org.

The changes to the dependent ports will be easy:
qhull.5:${PORTSDIR}/math/qhull -> qhull.5:${PORTSDIR}/math/qhull5
qhull:${PORTSDIR}/math/qhull -> qhull:${PORTSDIR}/math/qhull5
