Lots of upstream changes since 1.10.28 (three years ago).
pkgsrc changes:
- the database location has changed to ${VARBASE}/db/dpkg
- man pages are installed
version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
http://developer.pidgin.im/query?status=closed&milestone=2.3.0
Some highlights from ChangeLog:
Pidgin:
* Connection errors are now reported in mini-dialogs inside the buddy
list, rather than as buttons in the buddy list and with dialog
boxes. If several accounts are disabled when you sign on elsewhere,
you can now re-enable them all with a single click.
* If you alias a buddy to an alias that is already present within
a particular group, we now offer to merge the buddies into the
same contact.
* A music emblem is now displayed in the buddy list for a buddy if we
know she is listening to some soothing music.
* Added a 'Move to' menu in buddy list context menu for moving buddies
to other groups as an alternative to dragging.
* It is now possible to mark a chat on your buddy list as "Persistent"
so you do not leave the chat when the window or tab is closed.
* The auto-join option for chats is now listed in the "Add Chat"
dialog along with the new persistence option.
* Closing an IM no longer immediately closes your conversation. It
will now remain active for a short time so that if the conversation
resumes, the history will be retained. A preference has been added
to toggle this behavior.
* The "Smiley" menu has been moved to the top-level of the toolbar.
* Pidgin's display is now saved with the command line for session
restoration. (David Mohr)
* ICQ Birthday notifications are shown as buddy list emblems.
* Plugin actions are now available from the docklet context menu
in addition to the Tool menu of the buddy list.
* The manual page has been heavily rewritten to bring it in line
with current functionality.
Finch:
* It's possible to bind key-strokes to specific menuitems in the windows.
Read the 'Menus' section in the man-page for details.
* 'transpose-chars' operation for the entry boxes. The default key-binding
is ctrl+t.
* 'yank' operation for the entry boxes. The default binding is ctrl+y.
Replace the nested shell loops in depgraph_installed() with some awk
that only needs to invoke pkg_info once. This gives a ~20x speedup.
Previously, if many packages were installed, depgraph generation took a
considerable amount of time; in the order of 30 seconds even on moderately
fast hardware.
Changes:
* src/main.c (xvsprintf): limit memory allocation
to 200K when vsnprintf return -1. (i.e. on pre-1999
systems not distinguising fatal errors and too small
buffer).
* src/manage.c (get_res_name, get_res_class): remove
(update_window_name): call get_class_hints directly to avoid it
being called two times.
* src/manage.c (get_wmname): always try XmbTextPropertyToTextList
first to also support UTF-8 window titles when encoded as XA_STRING
* src/main.c (clean_up): call free_user_commands, free_groups only
after free_window_stuff
* src/window.c (free_window_stuff): remove windows from group lists
* src/action.h (free_user_commands): new prototype
* src/action.c (set_var_free,user_command_free,free_user_commands):
new functions
* src/manage.c (get_wmname): free buffer to close memory hole
* src/actions.c (cmd_windows): free buffer to close memory hole
* src/main.c (init_defaults): only load the backup font when the
default font fails.
* src/main.c (init_defaults): if the default font fails, use the
backup font.
* src/conf.h (BACKUP_FONT): new define
* src/input.c (update_modifier_map): don't map both super and
hyper to the same modifier slot.
* src/split.c (set_active_frame): call switch_frame hook
(show_frame_indicator): only show frame indicator
(set_active_frame): new arg force_indicator. all callers updated.
(show_frame_indicator): new arg force. all callers updated.
* src/main.c (init_defaults): init bar_in_padding
* src/globals.c (rp_switch_screen_hook): new hook
* src/data.h (struct rp_defaults): new slot, bar_in_padding
* src/bar.c (bar_x): honour bar_in_padding setting
(bar_y): likewise
* src/actions.c (init_set_vars): add barinpadding
(set_barinpadding): new function
* src/globals.h: new global rp_switch_screen_hook
* src/frame.c (frame_read): fix bug to never set dedicated

- Rendering is now significantly faster.
- The curses_display module can now draw in the lower-right corner of the screen.
- New Widget base class for all widgets. It includes automatic caching of rows() and render() methods. It also adds a new __super attribute for accessing methods in superclasses.
- Widgets must now call self._invalidate() to notify the cache when their content has changed.
- To disable caching in a widget set the class variable no_cache to a list that includes the string "render".
- Canvas classes have been reorganized: Canvas has been renamed to TextCanvas and Canvas is now the base class for all canvases. New canvas classes include BlankCanvas, SolidCanvas and CompositeCanvas.
- All display modules now have start() and stop() methods that may be used instead of calling run_wrapper().
- Many internal string processing functions have been rewritten in C to improve their performance.
- Compatible with Python >= 2.2. Python 2.1 is no longer supported.
- Improved performance in UTF-8 mode when ASCII text is used.
- Added a clear() function to the the display modules to force the screen to be repainted on the next draw_screen() call.
on in the clock applet, convert the day's start time to UTC first.
evolution does only accept UTC times, and since midnight at Greenwich
is still the previous day in the US, evolution did show the previous day
for US users.
See https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/42115 for a discussion.
Ubuntu does simply add 12h which works in most cases, but not always
in pacific areas. We do it correctly.
The Ubuntu fix was proposed by walt per mail to tech-pkg; thanks walt
for testing my patch too.
Add commented out LICENSE line (gnu-gpl-v3).
From ChangeLog:
Version 1.0.12:
- Gnulib update to 2007-11-27.
- Don't count already retrieved messages twice. This fixes a segfault when
only_new is off and header or size filtering is on. The bug was introduced in
the previous change; no released version is affected.
- If a filter decides to delete a mail, then additionally mark it as
retrieved. This prevents to filter the mail again in a later session when
the 'keep' option is set.
- Fix default UIDLS file on the W32 platform: Use '\' as directory separator,
not '/'. Reported by Ricky Thomas.
Version 1.0.11:
- Update the license of the source code to GPLv3 or later, and change the
license of the documentation to the GFDLv1.2 or later.
- Gnulib update to 2007-07-15.
- Add new option -Q / --half-quiet to print only status information but no
progress information. Suggested by Dimitrios Apostolou.
- Set the default timeout to 180 seconds = 3 minutes. This prevents sessions
from hanging forever. Suggested by Dimitrios Apostolou.
- Make the POP3 commands UIDL, LIST, and DELE abortable. This is useful for
mailboxes with many thousand mails.
- Update the UIDL state after mail retrieval, and save this state in case of
errors in DELE or QUIT. Only update the UIDL state again after successful
DELE and QUIT, and then save this state. This prevents an incorrect UIDL
state if the DELE commands are aborted, for example. Bug reported by
Dimitrios Apostolou.
Version 1.0.10:
- Fix UIDL handling: the first character of UIDs was ignored.
- Improve APOP timestamp checks. Thanks to Carlos Martín Nieto for a
discussion of this.
- Add documentation on how to find the right CA certificate for
tls_trust_file. Thanks to Bryan Kam for suggestions.
- Improve the documentation for TLS vs. SSL and STARTTLS vs. POP3-over-TLS.
Thanks to Carlos Martín Nieto for suggestions.
- Update the spanish translation (Carlos Martín Nieto).
Version 1.0.9:
- Require either tls_trust_file or tls_certcheck=off for TLS sessions, so that
mpop is not silently vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks.
- Gnulib update 2007-04-07.
- Protect against the man-in-the-middle attack on APOP authentication as
described in CVE-2007-1558. This is done by doing sanity checks on the
APOP timestamp in the server greeting.
However, this probably makes attacks only harder. It will not make them
impossible. Therefore, APOP authentication is never used automatically
anymore unless TLS is active.
- Do not use NTLM authentication automatically anymore unless TLS is active.
NTLM is not an open standard and must therefore be considered broken.
Version 1.0.8:
- Move build-aux files to separate directory build-aux.
- Gnulib update 2007-03-19.
- Improve and generalize workaround for pop.gmail.com RFC violations. This
enables automatic pipelining support for pop.gmail.com and some other
servers.
- Provide a hstrerror() function for systems that lack getaddrinfo() (so that
gethostbyname() must be used instead) and that do not provide hstrerror()
themselves. Needed for Solaris 2.6. Reported and tested by Chris Green.
0.1.20
- A few bugfixes.
- Added XML declaration parsing/saving. This is a stop-gap at best, but will
hopefully be useful to some.
- Removed reliance on builtin regex library. Hopefully the completely broken
version of glibc that instigated the inclusion of it is now out of
circulation.
- Fixed a whole bunch of compiler warnings on more recent GCC versions.
- --not-done now marks sub-tasks as not done. Thanks to an anonymous
user for picking this up.
0.1.19
- Updated my E-Mail address after about a year of having the wrong one :)
- Removed informational message at top of .todo files as it was rather useless
and actually annoying to some people placing their .todo files under version
control systems.
- Added a XSLT -> XHTML+CSS transform from Francesco Poli.
- Added a bash completion script from the Gentoo projects maintainer Aaron
Walker.
- Fixed seg fault visible on 64-bit systems but present on all. Thanks to the
Debian project for notifying me and providing a fix.
