Dear pkgsrc users,

on Dec 05 I have committed a large patch which affected many packages. 
Due to incomplete testing this patch made some packages produce empty 
PLIST files, so that the binary packages are unusable. A pkg_info -qL 
for those packages would also show and empty list.

If you have built any package from the following list between Dec 05 and 
today, you should update them. My special apologies for the fact that 
this failure affects mostly large packages that take hours to build.
