hstr @1.21 : Bash and Zsh shell history suggest box

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Change depends_build to depends_build-append and depends_lib to depends_lib-append to not overwrite dependencies pulled in from the GitHub portgroup and by using use_autoreconf yes.

I must have missed ​that part in the guide. Thanks for pointing it out.

In bc3e8e22/macports-ports:

hstr: New port.

Closes: #53424

Note:

• I added the dependency on ncurses because it was using it.
• I fixed the spacing to conform to the mode line.

readline already depends on ncurses — why is it necessary to add ncurses also in hstr's portfile?

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

The rule of thumb is if the port directly depends on it, then the dependency should be added. If ncurses gets an API change, we can easily know which ports will be affected before it gets committed and breaks it!
