Translation: Alexsej just changed all the "{}" back to "()" for no benefit, and to apparently to intentionally cause pkglint to generate warnings for the reason I can only speculate that he thinks pkglint should not classify "()" as an error.
This revert had no justification and it makes the pkgsrc Makefile worse (same story with lang/racket). This is irresponsible. For a lesser extent, OBATA Akio pointed me to commit guidelines that said one should avoid reverting commits of other developers and that was violated as well.
Apparently there's no point on using pkglint, at least on packages that asau has interest in.
