D-Bus Python Bindings 0.83.0 (2008-07-23)
=========================================
Features:
* Add bindings for DBusServer (thanks to Mathias Hasselmann, Huang Peng;
fd.o #14322, #15514).
* Omit the service's traceback from certain D-Bus errors: specifically, those
that were probably deliberately raised as part of an API. Subclasses
of DBusException that indicate programmer error can turn the traceback
back on if it seems likely to be useful.
Fixes:
* Don't emit spurious Error messages if libdbus gives object-path handlers
a message that isn't a method call (most likely because of binding to a
locally emitted signal, as in fd.o #14199).
* Make multiple filters added by Connection.add_message_filter work
(fd.o #15547, thanks to Huang Peng).
* Make the API docs build correctly when out-of-tree
* Require dbus 1.0 so we can get rid of DBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE
- Supports DESTDIR
- Accept Python 2.5
News:
* supplying reply_handler but not error_handler raises
MissingReplyHandlerException instead of MissingErrorHandlerException,
and vice versa (fd.o #12304, patch from Rene Neumann)
* Using non-recursive make for dbus/ directory should fix builds in some
environments (fd.o #12741)
changes:
-fixes
-dbus.Bus() deprecated
-ode for which Collabora is the only copyright holder is now under
the same permissive MIT/X11 license under which dbus core
is being relicensed
D-Bus Python Bindings 0.71 (24 July 2006)
==
- Binary modules are now installed in the correct directory
- Distutils exports the dbus and dbus-glib cflags
D-Bus Python Bindings 0.70 (17 July 2006)
==
- First release of bindings split
- Move to a distutils build enviornment
- It is possible to now specify sender_keyword="foo", path_keyword="bar" when
adding a signal listener
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
