gflags 2.2.2
This maintenance release improves life of Bazel users (no more
"config.h" leaking into global include paths), fixes build with recent MinGW
versions, and silences a number of static code analyzer and compiler warnings.
The build targets exported by the CMake configuration of this library are now
also prefixed by the package name "gflags::" following a more recent
(unwritten) CMake convention. The unprefixed target names are still supported
to avoid that dependent projects have to be modified due to this change in
imported target names.

* Changed include directory in bazel build
* Mark single argument constructors in mutex.h as explicit
* Use inttypes.h on VC++ 2013 and later
* Fix statically linked gflags library with MSVC
* Modify installation paths on Windows for vcpkg
* Fix static initialization order fiasco caused by global registry lock
* Fix use of ARGC in CMake macros
* Static code analyzer error regarding strncmp with empty kRootDir
* Check HAVE_STDINT_H or HAVE_INTTYPES_H for older MSVC versions
This release adds support for use of the gflags library as external dependency not only in projects using CMake, but also Bazel, or pkg-config. One new minor feature is added in this release: when a command flag argument contains dashes, these are implicitly converted to underscores. This is to allow those used to separate words of the flag name by dashes to do so, while the flag variable names are required to use underscores.
Memory leaks reported by valgrind should be resolved by this release.
This release fixes build errors with MS Visual Studio 2015.
The gflags package contains a library that implements commandline flags
processing. As such it's a replacement for getopt(). It has increased
flexibility, including built-in support for C++ types like string, and the
ability to define flags in the source file in which they're used.
Package from pkgsrc-wip with bacon4000@gmail.com as the MAINTAINER.
devel/snappy can use this along with other packages in the dependency chain
for caffe.
