1f40f3a084 Mechanically replace references to graphics/jpeg with the suitable
alternative from mk/jpeg.buildlink3.mk

This allows selection of an alternative jpeg library (namely the x86 MMX,
SSE, SSE2 accelerated libjpeg-turbo) via JPEG_DEFAULT=libjpeg-turbo, and
follows the current standard model for alternatives (fam, motif, fuse etc).

The mechanical edits were applied via the following script:

#!/bin/sh
for d in */*; do
  [ -d "$d" ] || continue
  for i in "$d/"Makefile* "$d/"*.mk; do
    case "$i" in *.orig|*"*"*) continue;; esac
    out="$d/x"
    sed -e 's;graphics/jpeg/buildlink3\.mk;mk/jpeg.buildlink3.mk;g' \
        -e 's;BUILDLINK_PREFIX\.jpeg;JPEGBASE;g' \
        < "$i" > "$out"
    if cmp -s "$i" "$out"; then
      rm -f "$out"
    else
      echo "Edited $i"
      mv -f "$i" "$i.orig" && mv "$out" "$i"
    fi

4. Version 7.5 Release Notes:
---------------------------------

   Version 7.5 is the development branch.  Version 7.5.0 is the same as
   7.4.2, which is essentially the same as 7.3.123, plus some
   documentation updates.  Intended development is as follows:

   1) Use a finely spaced grid for the database, but keep the concept
      of "lambda" for layout.  Keep backwards compatibility, and resolve
      issues with layout that does not work well on the lambda grid.

      Item #1 implemented in 7.5.1 by allowing a DRC "scalefactor" line,
      which declares that all DRC rules are in units of (lambda /
      scalefactor).  Rules "in use" are scaled to lambda and rounded to
      the nearest integer.  The original value is retained, however, so
      that any call to "scalegrid" will recompute the DRC distances based
      on the current internal grid.  Thus, we can define DRC rules in
      fractional lambda and therefore match vendor DRC rule distances
      while still maintaining magic's concept of "lambda".  This means
      that users working entirely within magic have scalable CMOS rules,
      but if a "vendor cell" (3rd party GDS or CIF) is loaded, the DRC
      rules will be correct with respect to it.

   2) Create tile-based DRC functions that work like cifoutput:  perform
      tile operations, for which the resulting plane, instead of being
      output as a file like CIF or GDS, simply becomes an error result
      plane.  This will become an extra built-in plane.  Try to keep the
      plane numbers down by removing the built-in routing planes when they
      are not used.

      Basically, this means that the top of the DRC section defines a set
      of "templayer" blocks just like "cifinput" and "cifoutput" (but at the
      same scaling as the layout (thus the main reason for item #1 above)),
      where the templayer types can be used in the DRC section.

   3) Add "cifoutput" operators as needed to form a complete DRC.  Add DRC
      rule types as needed to form a complete DRC (for example, it needs a
      "copy" function that declares that the templayer itself represents the
      error condition).

4. Version 7.4 Release Notes:
---------------------------------

   Version 7.4 is the new stable distribution version of magic.
   Apart from changes to the release notes, it is identical to
   the last revision (123) of development version 7.3.  Revisions
   of 7.4 will be made as necessary to fix bugs in the code.  All
   new additions and major changes will be done to the new
   development distribution, version 7.5.  Therefore there will
   not be a "What's new in 7.4" section, as there is not supposed
   to be anything new in version 7.4.


5. Version 7.3 Release Notes:
---------------------------------

   Magic release 7.3 incorporates a stacked contact model which is,
   for the most part, backwardly compatible with Magic releases
   7.2 and earlier.  Information about this developmental release
   can be found at:

	http://opencircuitdesign.com/magic/magic7_3.html


   What's new in 7.3:
   ------------------
   Provided by Tim Edwards (MultiGiG, Inc.):
         1) Stacked contact model allowing arbitrary stacking of
	    contact types.
         2) A separate "undo/redo" method for network selection, to
	    remove the memory overhead associated with selecting and
	    unselecting large networks.  Also removes some time overhead
	    as well, especially when unselecting networks.
         3) Much improved "plot pnm" function.
         4) Improved transistor and resistor extraction.
	 5) LEF format reader; improved LEF/DEF input/output handling
	 6) New style and colormap file formats
	 7) Vendor GDS read/write capability
         8) "wire segment" drawing function
	 9) Handling of path records in CIF and GDS input
	10) Handling of cell scaling in GDS input
	11) Pi-network device extraction for resistors
	12) Option to write contacts as cell arrays in GDS output
	13) New "widespacing" and "maxwidth" DRC algorithms.
	14) "polygon" command
	15) New cifoutput operator "bloat-all"
	16) Backing-store for 24-bit and OpenGL graphics
	17) New "pick" tool for interactive selection move and copy
	18) New interactive "wire" tool
	19) Crosshair
	20) New cifoutput operator "slots"
	21) New fcntl-based file locking mechanism
	22) "angstroms" units supported in cifinput/cifoutput
	23) Non-Manhattan device extraction support
	24) New "feedback" mechanism
	25) Proper support for > 32 planes (up to 64)
	26) Fixed array interaction CIF/GDS generation
	27) Added executable "magicdnull" for streamlined batch-mode use
	28) New method for crash backups, including restore with "magic -r"
        29) A number of other technology file additions and enhancements

6. Version 7.2 Release Notes:
---------------------------------

   Magic release 7.2 incorporates the capability to run magic from the Tcl
   interpreter with graphics handled by Tk.  Instructions for compiling
   and installing this version are in README.Tcl.  Information about
   this release can be found at:

	http://opencircuitdesign.com/magic/magic7_2.html

   What's new in 7.2:
   ------------------
   Provided by Tim Edwards (MultiGiG, Inc., and JHU Applied Physics Lab):

       1) Tcl interpreter extension option
       2) Cygwin compile option
       3) Memory resources cleaned up
       4) GUI interface to Tcl version of Magic
       5) Readline update to version 4.3
       6) OpenGL fixes and refinements
       7) Nonmanhattan geometry fixes and extensions
       8) Threaded graphics in non-Tcl environments
       9) Inductance extraction
      10) CIF and GDS input/output support for deep submicron technologies
      11) Different internal and lambda grids, including automatic or
	  induced ("scalegrid" command) grid subdivision and expansion.
	  "snap" and "grid" functions and extensions aid layout when
	  lambda and internal units differ.
      12) Removed commands "list", "listall", "parent", and "child",
	  replacing them with the more general-purpose "cellname"
	  and "instance" commands.
      13) Added command "tech", and re-loadable technologies.
      14) Revamped the "dstyle" files and updated the dstyle version
      15) Added "element" types for layout annotation.
      16) Extended extract section of techfile to include "device"
	  keyword and devices "mosfet", "bjt", "capacitor", and "resistor".
	  New model resistor and mosfet use width/length instead of area/
	  perimeter.
      17) Added 3D rendering window invoked by command "specialopen wind3d",
	  for the Tcl version compiled with OpenGL graphics.
      18) Added "height" keyword to tech file for height/thickness values
      19) Added "windowname" command for managing multiple wrapper windows
	  under Tcl.
      20) Added extraction extension for annular (ring) MOSFETs.
      21) Added "widespacing" DRC rule.
      22) Added GNU autoconf compile
      23) New command "property" for setting key:value pair properties
	  in cell definitions that can be interpreted by other routines
	  (such as LEF/DEF).
      24) General-purpose subcircuit method using the "port" command to
	  declare a cell to be a subcircuit and to mark the position and
	  orientation of connections into the subcell.  This replaces a
	  method previously built into version 7.2 using a "subcircuit"
	  layer; that method is now considered obsolete.
      25) LEF and DEF format readers, LEF format writer.
      26) Improved techfile format with asterisk-notation and DRC
	  "surround", "overhang", and "rect_only" statements.

859ce74014 Update eagle to 4.16r2.
(distfile for 4.14 are not available, so up to latest for 4.1x).

Release notes for EAGLE 4.16r2
============================

* Bugfixes:

  - Fixed generating pixmaps that are much longer in one dimension with the
    EXPORT IMAGE command.
  - Fixed handling the net class when renaming a net segment to a new name.
  - Fixed a crash when clicking into the empty area of the Technologies
    dialog.
  - Fixed an 'Internal polygon error 73' when zooming far in on a board that
    contains smds with a roundness other than 0.

Release notes for EAGLE 4.16r1
==============================

* Bugfixes:

  - Fixed handling '\' in UNC program file name under Windows XP in case the
    program is installed on a server.
  - Fixed handling the ESCape key in ULPs with nested dialogs.
  - Fixed handling the program file name under Windows if it starts
    with ".\".
  - Fixed handling German umlauts in the User Language functions strupr(),
    strlwr(), toupper() and tolower() under Windows and Mac OS X.
  - Fixed setting the current item in the Control Panel's tree view when
    drag&dropping a package into a library in case there is also a device
    set with the same name.
  - Fixed unexpected airwires in case an open Pwr pin is connected to a net
    with the same name, or a Supply pin with the same name is placed on an
    open Pwr pin.
  - Fixed printing rotated or mirrored texts under Linux and Mac OS X.
  - Fixed handling upper/lowercase when licensing under Windows on a server.
  - Fixed handling the highest byte of the Palette values in the eaglerc
    file.
  - Fixed handling polygons with only two edges, in case one of them is
    an arc.

Release notes for EAGLE 4.16
============================

* Bugfixes:

  - Fixed CUT/PASTE of net classes (only the first two were actually pasted).
  - Fixed handling library name after "Save as" (was wrong in Description
    editor).
  - Fixed CHANGE PACKAGE/TECHNOLOGY in case a device contains more than 254
    technologies (which was possible due to a missing check in the technology
    dialog of the device editor).
  - Fixed the technology dialog in the device editor, so that it doesn't
    accept more than 254 technologies per package variant.
  - Fixed a possible data corruption when a supply pin overwrites a net name.
    Leftover pin references that may have been caused by such a data
    corruption are automatically deleted during the next library update.
  - Fixed an unexpected "Cancel" button in some message boxes.
  - Fixed generating annulus symbols for pads that have the NOTHERMALS
    flag set.
  - Fixed faulty splitting of arcs near their end points.

    a schematic.
  - Fixed a problem with getting the program directory name under Windows XP
    if the console version of EAGLE was started without a full path name.
  - Fixed a possible crash when canceling the console version of EAGLE with
    Ctrl+C under Windows XP.
  - Fixed loading a text file on Windows XP from a non-Windows server (the
    file was not editable even though it was writable in the file system).
  - Fixed storing Undo data when doing a library update where the sequence
    of gates had changed in a device. If doing UNDO followed by REDO after
    such an update, some of the part's gates may have been swapped.

* Bugfixes:

  - The CHANGE PACKAGE command now updates the package in the board with the
    version from the schematic, in order to avoid problems in case a REPLACE
    has been done in the board while the schematic was closed.
  - Fixed handling access to the individual characters of a string in ULPs on
    Mac OS X.
  - The COPY command now updates the package in the board with the version
    from the schematic _before_ actually adding the copied part, in order to
    avoid problems in case a REPLACE has been done in the board while the
    schematic was closed.
  - The library update now reports a modification to the board even if it was
    just the renaming of some packages due to a previous REPLACE with the
    schematic closed.
  - Fixed handling empty strings in dlgListView.
  - Fixed clearing the selection of a dlgListView.
  - Fixed setting user defined default Design Rules when loading an existing
    library from within a project.
  - Fixed an extra line that appeared when closing a group with the right
    mouse button in case the group was empty.
  - Fixed a possible crash in UL_WIRE.pieces().
  - Fixed cursor positioning after an error message regarding a loop member
    in a ULP.

5824cb548d Update to version 1.6.0
Besides the changes noted below, a major change in 1.6.0 is that the gEDA/gaf suite
is istributed as a single tarball and uses a single build system as opposed to individual
tarballs and builds.  In addition to greatly speeding up the build, it is much easier
to maintain.  Additionally, it rarely made sense to only install some of the components.

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.6.0
=================================

* Fixed the GtkItemEntry code inside of gattrib code so that it builds
  using gtk+ > 2.16.x.

* In gschem, rubberband pin to pin connections by adding nets.

* Cleanup of the slot handling code in libgeda.

* Fixes/updates to the MinGW port.

* Updated the shipped documentation from the online wiki.

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.5.3/1.5.4
=======================================

* NOTE: gEDA/gaf 1.5.3 was released with some critical bugs, so
        it was withdrawn before it was widely distributed.

* Text rendering using native system fonts:

  - The various programs in gEDA/gaf no longer uses its own built-in
    line font.

  - Native system fonts are used for rendering, giving support for a
    wider range of symbols, and better looking schematics.

* Always use PostScript fonts in gschem's PostScript output.  The
  "output-text", "text-output" and "output-vector-threshold" config
  functions have been removed.

* Image rendering in 'gschem' uses cairo instead of GDK.

* Numerous build system changes:

  - gEDA/gaf is now distributed as a single source archive, called
    gEDA-<version>.tar.gz.

  - GTK+ 2.10 or newer and Guile 1.8 or newer are now required.

  - `intltool' is no longer required.

  - Documentation is now installed to ${docdir} (usually
    ${prefix}/share/doc/gEDA).

* The attribute edit dialog in `gschem' now has completion of most
  common attribute names.

* The multi-attribute edit dialog in `gschem' now shows unpromoted
  symbol attributes.

* Menu items in `gschem' now have icons and properly aligned key
  bindings. They also support accelerator keys.

* The `gschem2pcb' and `PCBboard' netlist backends have been removed.
  It is recommended to use `gsch2pcb' instead.

* Check for and reject non-footprint PCB files in 'gsch2pcb'.

* Removed unimplemented "File->Open" feature in 'gattrib'.

* Added --disable-gattrib command line flag to ./configure to disable the
  building of 'gattrib'.  This is useful if you are building against
  gtk+ 2.17.x which breaks 'gattrib'.

* 'gnetlist' does not recommend drc2 every time it runs.  The drc2
  backend is only useful in certain circumstances.

* Assign shortcuts "vd" and "vl" for changing between color schemes
  in 'gschem'.

* Fix problem with attached net attribute not being honored in 'gnetlist'.

* Focus the "save" button in the close confirmation dialog in 'gattrib' and
  'gschem'.

* Accept empty attributes in the src file in 'tragesym'.

* Cleaned up the slot dialog box in 'gschem'.

* Changed the grip size rendering in 'gschem' to be reasonably sized when
  zoomed in a lot.

* Introduction of a new attribute searching API in 'libgeda' and 'gschem'.

* Improvements and cleanup to the 'gnetlist' and 'gsymcheck' test suites.

* Fixed the following bugs:

  - 1758673: Combine source tarballs
  - 2058707: gschem, gattrib: Dangerous button focus in "Save changes"
             dialog at quit
  - 2430369: gschem: Deselect invisible attribs with their parent object.
  - 2449060: Graphic state left inconsistent cancelling from net mode
  - 2460301: libgeda: Make o_complex_promote_attribs() respect keep_invisible
             and libgeda: Make o_complex_copy() actually copy.
  - 2455061: Gnetlist output changed, and tests fail with recent GLib
  - 2655088: autogen.sh: Make sure to exit if autopoint fails.
  - 2823703: gnet-pcbpins.scm: Quote pins names if they contain comma
             or close parenthesis.
  - 2823755: gnetlist: Fix DEBUG builds.
  - 2836109: build-sys: Add check for groff html driver.

* Spanish translation were updated.

* Lots of code, infrastructure, and doxygen documentation cleanup and
  refactoring.

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.5.2
=================================

* `gschem' now uses Cairo for all rendering.  This allows for
  everything to be rendered anti-aliased.

* `gschem' now uses a mesh grid instead of dots by default.

* Net junction cues in `gschem' are drawn smaller now.

* Copy and paste now works between different `gschem' instances (using
  the X selection).

* Recent files are no longer opened in a new `gschem' window.

* Major, *backwards-incompatible* changes to color handling in
  `libgeda' and `gschem'.

  - All colors are specified using hexadecimal `#RRGGBB' or
    `#RRGGBBAA' syntax.

  - The print and display color maps are now separate.

  - A new Scheme syntax is used to inspect and modify color maps.

  - If you wish to use a light background in `gschem', add the line:

      (load (build-path geda-rc-path "gschem-colormap-lightbg"))

    to your personal or project gschemrc file.

* Attributes of embedded objects are now shown in the right color.

* Bus pins are now supported by `gschem' and `libgeda', but are *not*
  properly supported by the netlister.  The pin type can be modified
  by selecting a pin, then right-clicking it and selecting `Edit pin
  type...'.

* All of the symbols were modified to use overbar markup tags ("like
  \_this\_") instead of separate lines.

* Log files are now saved to $HOME/.gEDA/logs rather than being
  dropped in the current directory.

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.5.1
=================================

* GTK+ version 2.8.x or later is now required.

* The selection behaviour in `gschem' was changed.

  - Lines, unfilled boxes, unfilled circles, arcs, pins, nets, and
    buses must be selected by clicking on the drawn path itself.

  - Filled boxes, circles, text, and components, may be selected by
    clicking anywhere in the bounding box.

  - The default mouse click distance required to select an element was
    increased to 10 pixels.

  - Double-clicking on a net segment selects all connected net
    segments.

* The percentage step in or out while zooming the display in `gschem'
  is now configurable with the `zoom-gain' gschemrc parameter.  The
  default value is 20%.

* The size of steps when panning with the mouse wheel or with a
  trackpad in `gschem' is now adjustable with the `scrollpan-steps'
  gschemrc parameter.  The default setting scrolls in steps of 1/8 of
  a screen.

* A number of improvements were made to the `gschem' component
  selection dialog.

  - The dialog now shows a table of top-level attributes in the
    selected symbol.

  - It is now possible to expand/collapse a library by clicking
    anywhere on its row.

* Changes to fill- and line-styles in `gschem' can now be undone.

* Arcs can now be adjusted in `gschem' using an arc angle dialog.  It
  can be accessed by selecting an arc and selecting Edit->Edit.

* It is now possible to rotate objects while placing them in `gschem'.

* Support for arbitrary filled and unfilled paths, using a subset of
  the SVG path syntax.  For more information, please see the file
  format specification.
  <http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:file_format_spec>

  - `gschem' does not yet provide a GUI for creating or editing path
    elements.  However, it does support rendering them.  They can also
    be printed.

  - Some of the symbols in the component library were updated to use
    paths.

* A Scheme evaluation prompt was added to `gschem'.  It can be
  accessed by typing `:'.

* Improved algorithm for drawing hatched fills both on screen and in
  PostScript output.

* Color selection dialogs and menus in `gschem' now show the actual
  color as well as the description.  Color names are now translatable.

* `gattrib' now prompts to save changes.

* All of the unimplemented menu items and pages in `gattrib' were
  removed.

* The `always-promote-attributes' gafrc parameter now takes a list of
  strings as an argument.  The space-delimited string syntax is
  deprecated.

* Some optimisations were made to the `gnetlist' connection traversal
  algorithm to speed up netlisting large designs.

* A new netlist backend was added to support Liquid PCB.
  <http://www.liquidpcb.org/>

* The `bom2' netlist backend now generates a `qty' column.

* Several improvements and fixes were made to the `systemc' backend.

* The `--gnetlist-arg' option to gsch2pcb can now be used to pass
  extra `gnetlist' arguments.

* `gsch2pcb' now emits files with the latest `pcb' file format.

* The `gxyrs' pick-and-place tool was added.

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.5.0
=================================

* Magnetic net mode in `gschem'. Magnetic mode lets you draw nets and
  automatically connect to valid end points (such as pins and other
  nets).  The `magnetic-net-mode' gschemrc parameter can be used to
  enable/disable this feature.

* Rotating a component while moving it in `gschem' now rotates around
  the current mouse location.

* The `verilog' and `vhdl' backends now work again.

* Embedded components can now be mirrored.

* The `pads' netlist backend now uses CRLF line endings.
