* msggrep: A '$' anchor in a regular expression now also matches the end of
the string, even if it does not end in a newline.
* Dependencies:
The libraries and programs are now linked with libunistring if this library
is already installed.
* Installation options:
The configure option --with-cvs is deprecated. The 'autopoint' program will
now use the 'git' program by default to compress its archive. If the
configure option --without-git is specified, 'autopoint' will not rely on
'git', but will instead rely on a locally installed a 3 MB large archive.
Changes 0.18:
* Runtime behaviour:
- On MacOS X and Windows systems, <libintl.h> now extends setlocale() and
newlocale() so that their determination of the default locale considers
the choice the user has made in the system control panels.
- On MacOS X systems, the gettext()/dgettext()/... functions now respect the
locale of the current thread, if a thread-specific locale has been set.
* PO file format:
There is a new field 'Language' in the header entry. It denotes the language
code (plus optional country code) for the PO file. This field can be used
by automated tools, such as spell checkers. It is expected to be more
reliable than looking at the file name or at the 'Language-Team' field in
the header entry.
msgmerge, msgcat, msgen have a new option --lang that allows to specify
this field. Additionally, msgmerge fills in this new field by looking at
the 'Language-Team' field (if the --lang option is not given).
* xgettext and PO file format:
For messages with plural forms, programmers can inform the translators
about the range of possible values of the numeric argument, like this:
/* xgettext: range: 0..15 */
This information 'range: 0..15' is stored in the PO file as a flag attached
to the message. Translators can produce better translations when they know
that the numeric argument is small.
* Colorized PO files:
msgattrib, msgcomm, msgconv, msgen, msgfilter, msggrep, msginit, msgmerge,
msgunfmt, msguniq, xgettext now have options --color and --style, like msgcat
has since version 0.17.
* msgmerge is up to 10 times faster when the PO and POT files are large.
This speedup was contributed by Ralf Wildenhues.
* msgcmp has a new option -N/--no-fuzzy-matching, like msgmerge has since
version 0.12.
* msgfilter now sets environment variables during the invocation of the
filter, indicating the msgid and location of the messge being processed.
* xgettext now can extract plural forms from Qt 4 programs. The recommended
xgettext command-line options for this case are:
--qt --keyword=tr:1,1t --keyword=tr:1,2c,2t --keyword=tr:1,1,2c,3t
* xgettext --language=GCC-source now recognizes also the format strings
used in the Fortran front-end of the GCC compiler, and marks them as
'gfc-internal-format'.
* autopoint can now be used to update several PO directories all together.
including support for relocable programs, Qt support,
separation of the PO processing functions into a separate
library and more.
Reorganise the gettext infrastructure by splitting of the
tools into devel/gettext-tools, which will be used by the tools
framework. The remaining devel/gettext package contains
gettextize and autopoint aka the infrastructure to embbed gettext
into a package.
Due to the ABI and API changes, a recursive revision bump will
follow.

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".
undetected so that the Java classes aren't built and installed. The
gettext Java classes should go into a separate package so that all OSes
may install them, not just Solaris.
There are too many changes to list in a sensible way.
The most visible change for me is that libintl requires libiconv now.
Also untangled the 3 sub-pkgs -- a common patch dir makes it too complex.
This pkg used to expose buildlink2 problems - the pkg libintl was
pulled in in cases where USE_GNU_GETTEXT was not set. There were
some improvements to libtool filtering, and x11/gtk builds now, so
I hope this is settled.
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
