I once again have a new tarball. See attached. From branch "submit4":

it contains this change, relative to the previous tarball:

https://codeberg.org/vimuser/librewolf-openbsd-port/commit/c818d44d36ab10ace1834fe48f6e3d088bdaf56a

this tidies up the Makefile. a lot of the logic was very messy in my 
opinion (inherited from the ff port). i generalised some strings, 
double-quoted a few strings also (ff port doesn't) specifically where 
WRKDIR is used, and made everything be 79 chars or less, per line. much 
cleaner to read.

there is still a glaring design flaw. the code builds perfectly, and 
pledge/unveil rules work. however, use of mozconfig is quite cursed. 
librewolf uses mozconfig, which means lots of configure args are ignored 
from the ports system, so i work around this fact by modifying mozconfig 
itself, dynamically at build time. however, this is tantamount to 
reinventing tthe ports system, inside mozilla. bloat.

i inttend, in a further submission, to instead do away with the 
mozconfig and rely solely on the openbsd ports system. if i do this, 
then i will be able to make the logic be pretty much identical again to 
the firefox port.

itt's uncanny, because most of the build options in librewolf (upstream) 
in their mozconfig matches what's in the openbsd firefox port. it's 
almost as though the librewolf developers are openbsd fans???? probably 
just a happy coincidence.

anyway, even with that being the case, i think this port is much more 
ready to go in, if people are ok with it. but i'll see what i can do 
about the latter, in removing mozconfig.
