- Support reading directly from a local INDEX(-5) file that isn't in

Description

  • Support reading directly from a local INDEX(-5) file that isn't in CVS, and use this by default. The CVS version is still used if the local updated version isn't readable. On www.FreeBSD.org this means that the updated INDEX(-5) found on http://www.FreeBSD.porg/ports/INDEX(-5) are used.

    In essence this mean that this CGI script is actually useful again since it's not returning out-of-date results.
  • Disable the "new ports" HTML since it just doesn't work without frequent INDEX versions in CVS. The support code for this isn't removed at this to avoid breaking stuff, but should be removed later.
