 }}}
 Some important items to note from
 [http://cvs.schmorp.de/gvpe/NEWS?view=markup NEWS]:

 - Some of the protocol changes are incompatible with previous versions
 - added sha256 and sha512 support to the software (the MacPorts Portfile
 will want to add rmd160 and sha256 checksums for the tarball, but that is
 a different issue and unrelated to the support for different checksums
 within gvpe itself)
 - more conf options
 - better detection of openssl
 - Will now opportunistically link against zlib (for openssl's sake), so
 the MacPorts Portfile will want to add a dependency on zlib.
 - Configury is based on newer autotools
 - uses the libev 4 API (MacPorts never declared a dependency on libev for
 gvpe previously, so maybe it will want to add one? gvpe does include its
 own copy of libev vendored into its tree, but I am not sure if it would be
 better to use that or the libev port in MacPorts...)
 - License clarification (MacPorts already has the GPL-3+ under its
 license, so we should be fine there)
 - bug fixes (unfortunately these bug fixes seem to have '''not''' included
 a fix for the build failure that I have been running into, both with the
 current version and the new version, but that is a separate issue...)

 (gvpe has no maintainer btw)
