makeinfo if no native makeinfo executable exists. Honor TEXINFO_REQD
when determining whether the native makeinfo can be used.
* Remove USE_MAKEINFO and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=makeinfo.
* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
PR 26837, plus some pkglinting. Also, change maintainer to tech-pkg
since I haven't run sawfish in years.

====
* Added `rep.ffi' module (Foreign Function Interface). Uses gcc's
libffi. Very untested.
* Partial implementation of guile's `GH' interface.
* Bug fixes:
- Don't hang in select for a second when starting processes via
the `system' function (race condition that only seems to show
up on Linux 2.6 kernels)
- Miscellaneous fixes for Mac OS X.
- Don't return a reversed list of items from the XML parser.
(Alexander V. Nikolaev)
- Fixes to string capitalization functions. (Charles Stewart)
* New modules `rep.data.trie', `rep.threads.proxy'
* Also added `rep.xml.reader' and `rep.xml.printer', though these
should probably be used with extreme caution
* Appending to queues is now O(1) not O(n)
* Many changes to `rep.net.rpc' module, protocol is incompatible
with previous version. Should be more robust
* `rep.i18n.gettext' module exports the `bindtextdomaincodeset'
function (Christophe Fergeau)
* Slightly more secure way of seeding the rng
* `inexact->exact' can now convert floating point numbers to
rationals (though not optimally). This means that `numerator' and
`denominator' also work better with floats now
* New function `file-ttyp'
* Some random bug fixes
to the latest librep. librep installs and uses its own libtool for use by
rep-* packages. We replace librep's libtool with a symlink to
${LOCALBASE}/bin/libtool and add a dependency on libtool-base. This
addresses PR 19495 by Bill Sommerfeld.
Summary of changes:
- removal of USE_GTEXINFO
- addition of mk/texinfo.mk
- inclusion of this file in package Makefiles requiring it
- `install-info' substituted by `${INSTALL_INFO}' in PLISTs
- tuning of mk/bsd.pkg.mk:
removal of USE_GTEXINFO
INSTALL_INFO added to PLIST_SUBST
`${INSTALL_INFO}' replace `install-info' in target rules
print-PLIST target now generate `${INSTALL_INFO}' instead of `install-info'
- a couple of new patch files added for a handful of packages
- setting of the TEXINFO_OVERRIDE "switch" in packages Makefiles requiring it
- devel/cssc marked requiring texinfo 4.0
- a couple of packages Makefiles were tuned with respect of INFO_FILES and
makeinfo command usage
See -newly added by this commit- section 10.24 of Packages.txt for
further information.
Changes:
* New module `rep.util.md5', has two functions for generating MD5
message digests (of files or strings)
* Changes to the `rep.io.sockets' function:
In the `socket-server' function the HOST and/or PORT arguments may
be false, meaning to listen on all addresses and to choose a
random unused port.
New functions `socket-peer-address' and `socket-peer-port', these
always returns the details of the far end of the connetion.
`socket-address' and `socket-port' have been changed to always
return the details of the local connection point.
* New function in `rep.system' module, `crypt'. A wrapper for the
system's `crypt' function (if it has one)
* New function in `rep.threads' mdoule, `make-suspended-thread'
* New module `rep.net.rpc', provides a text-stream based RPC
mechanism for Lisp programs. Similar in some ways to untyped CORBA.
(This is still in the experimental stage - its interface may
change in forthcoming releases)
* New functions in `rep.data' module, `list->vector' and
`vector->list'
* New macro `define-special-form'. A combination of `defvar' and
`setq' - it always makes the variable special and it always sets
it to the given value
* New module `rep.test.framework' implementing `assert', `check' and
`test' macros. This provides a framework for implementing unit
tests in Lisp modules (such that running the interpreter with the
`--check' option will run all tests that have been set up to be
autoloaded
FOO_REQD=1.0 being converted to foo>=1.0, one can now directly specify
the dependency pattern as FOO_DEPENDS=foo>=1.0. This allows things like
JPEG_DEPENDS=jpeg-6b, or fancier expressions like for postgresql-lib.
Change existing FOO_REQD definitions in Makefiles to FOO_DEPENDS.
CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS by the buildlink.mk files so remove the extra
definitions to add them from the package Makefiles. As advised by the
bsd.buildlink.mk file, also ensure that the buildlink.mk files are
included prior to defining any package-specific CFLAGS/LDFLAGS to ensure
that the buildlink directories are at the head of the compiler search
paths.
linking against installed libraries or finding installed headers except
for those that are explicitly linked into ${BUILDLINK_INCDIR} and
${BUILDLINK_LIBDIR}.
* Fix `define' so that it tracks bound variables and ignores
shadowed keywords when traversing code
* Added checks to compilation process for the kind of missing
shared-library problems that many people see
* Fixed the `install-aliases' shell script
libintl for i18n needs. Changes since version 0.12.4 are *lots* of bug
fixes, module namespace reorganization, several _incompatible_ VM changes,
and the addition of several new modules, including a safe-interpreter for
untrusted bytecodes.
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
