The PLISTs differ a lot between the platforms. For gathering the initial
data it is easier to just list the files per platform than trying to get
all the conditions right in the first place.
There will be conditions for operating systems, for platforms, for
features, for version-specific include files to be fixed, for installed
programming languages, for nls, and several more.
GHC: The Glasgow Haskell Compiler.
The Glasgow Haskell Compiler is a robust, fully-featured, optimising
compiler for the functional programming language Haskell 98
(http://www.haskell.org). GHC compiles Haskell to either native code
or C. It implements numerous experimental language extensions to
Haskell, including concurrency, a foreign language interface, several
type-system extensions, exceptions, and so on. GHC comes with a
generational garbage collector, a space and time profiler, and a
comprehensive set of libraries.
This package provides the 8.8.x release series.
Version 12.14.1 'Erbium' (LTS):
Notable changes
* crypto: fix key requirements in asymmetric cipher
* deps:
- update llhttp to 2.0.1
- update nghttp2 to 1.40.0
* v8: mark serdes API as stable
3.6.2:
Yet again the focus has been on just fixing bugs, mostly geared in the
later 3.x range. To get some sense what sill needs fixing, consult
test/stdlib/runtests.sh. And that only has a portion of what's known.
make_function.py has gotten so complex that it was split out into 3 parts
to handle different version ranges: Python <3, Python 3.0..3.6 and Python 3.7+.
An important fix is that we had been dropping docstrings in Python 3 code as a result
of a incomplete merge from the decompile3 base with respect to the transform phase.
Also important (at least to me) is that we can now handle 3.6+
variable type annotations. Some of the decompile3 code uses that in
its source code, and I now use variable annotations in conjunction
with mypy in some of my other Python projects
Code generation for imports, especially where the import is dotted
changed a bit in 3.7; with this release are just now tracking that
change better. For this I've added pseudo instruction
IMPORT_NAME_ATTR, derived from the IMPORT_NAME instruction, to
indicate when an import contains a dotted import. Similarly, code for
3.7 import .. as is basically the same as from .. import, the
only difference is the target of the name changes to an "alias" in the
former. As a result, the disambiguation is now done on the semantic
action side, rathero than in parsing grammar rules.
Some small specific fixes:
3.7+ some chained compare parsing has been fixed. Other remain.
better if/else rule checking in the 3.4 and below range.
3.4+ keyword-only parameter handling was fixed more generally
3.3 .. 3.5 keyword-only parameter args in lambda was fixed
This retires an old "optimisation" that over time has created more
problems than it solved, including various questions from users about
the ignored patch failures.

This package provides the 8.4.x release series, which is the last
version that can bootstrap with 8.0.2. It will probably be removed
once we make a separate package for GHC 8.8.x and get enough bootstrap
kits for it.
The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++, Objective-C,
Fortran, Ada, Go, and D, as well as libraries for these languages
(libstdc++,...).
This is the 2019 version, initially released in April 2019.
pkgsrc-specific changes to lang/gcc8:
The PLIST file is fixed, to guarantee that all expected files are
installed properly. In lang/gcc8 it had been autogenerated.
Only those patches have been kept that were strictly necessary to build
GCC on NetBSD-amd64. The others may be added from lang/gcc8 as necessary.
Tested by bootstrapping pkgsrc using CC=$PREFIX/gcc9/bin/gcc.

0.5.2:
- Add include_setitem to get_definition/is_definition and get_defined_names
- Fix named expression error listing
- Fix some f-string tokenizer issues
3.6.1:
Overall, as in the past, the focus has been on just fixing bugs, more geared
in the later 3.x range. Handling "async for/with" in 3.8+ works better.
Numerous bugs around handling lambda with keyword-only and * args in the
3.0-3.8 have been fixed. However many still remain.
binary_expr and unary_expr have been renamed to bin_op and
unary_op to better correspond the Python AST names.
Some work was done Python 3.7+ to handle and better; less was done
along the lines of handling or. Much more is needed to improve
parsing stability of 3.7+. More of what was done with and needs to
be done with or and this will happen first in the "decompyle3"
project.
Later this will probably be extended backwards to handle the 3.6-
versions better. This however comes with a big decompilation speed
penalty. When we redo control flow this should go back to normal, but
for now, accuracy is more important than speed.
Another assert transform rule was added. Parser rules to distingish
try/finally in 3.8 were added and we are more stringent about what
can be turned into an assert. There was some grammar cleanup here
too.
A number of small bugs were fixed, and some administrative changes to
make make check-short really be short, but check more throughly what
it checks. minimum xdis version needed was bumped to include in the
newer 3.6-3.9 releases. See the ChangeLog for details.

Python 3.8.1 is the first maintenance release of Python 3.8. The Python 3.8 series is the newest feature release of the Python language, and it contains many new features and optimizations.
GNU texinfo 6.7 fails to parse api-compound.texi because of an
unnecessary non-breaking space character (code point 160). (Whereas
GNU texinfo 6.5 succeeds there, as does the old C source version
bundled with NetBSD's userland.)
utf8 "\xA0" does not map to Unicode at ParserNonXS.pm line 1796, <FH> line 908.
Malformed UTF-8 character: \xa0 (unexpected continuation byte 0xa0, with no
preceding start byte) in pattern match (m//) at ParserNonXS.pm line 3364.
Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal) at ParserNonXS.pm line 3364.
It's simpler to just replace the byte in that source file with an ASCII
space character than attempt to fix the texinfo parsing code (and we're
in a freeze right now, too). This should fix the bulk build failures on
SmartOS and others.
