of PCB. In particular, the core code has been isolated from the GUI code
and there are now both GTK and Motif/Lesstif GUI's available. In addition,
command line exporting to RS-274-X, postscript, encapsulated postscript and
png are directly supported.
In addition, there have been many bug fixes since the last packaged snapshot
release.
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
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).

Release Notes for PCB snapshot 20060321
========================================================================
- Add internal support for more than 8 layers. By default PCB is still
compiled for 8 copper layers.
- Fixed several minor bugs in the GTK user interface including fixing
scrolling of the log window, fixed up some of the DRC reporting
and mm/mil units.
- Fixed several key bindings.
- Updated refcard.tex to reflect the current set of key bindings.
- Fixed some minor bugs which caused compilation problems on some
systems.
- Converted the QFN footprints to hi-res.
- Added documentation to the manual for the centroid file format and
the algorithm used for finding the centroid and rotation.
- Fixed a bug so that the initial layer named 'component' is actually
on the component side of the board and 'solder' is actually on the
solder side of the board.
- Fixed the pin order in the bourns trim pots (~bourns library)
- Added actions and a script to allow command line printing.
- Added IPC-7351 recommended footprints for 0201, 0402, etc passives.
- Fixed SME5 package.
- Fixed a bug which prevented disabling nets from the ratsnest
- Fixed a bug where clearances could be set 1 below the spacing
- Fixed clearline flag so that arcs also have this property.
- Speed up rtree searches and other autorouter speedups.
- Fixed a bug in computation of the closest polygon point.
- Use rtrees for polygon handling for speed improvements.
- Add a ChangePinName() action.
- Fix a bug which caused duplicate rats names when manually adding
rats lines.
- Added DRC checks for minimum drill diameter and minimum annular ring.
- Add a minimal glossary to the manual
- Fix the author name in the fab drawing
- Cause the crosshair to snap to pad ends instead of center for rat
drawing.
- Add "join" to SetFlag, ClrFlag and ChangeFlag.
- Added inline documentation for the pcb file syntax. The manual now
is up to date and correctly documents the file format. In addition
the inline documentation will make it much easier to maintain the
documentation.
- Remove some broken m4lib footprints
- Put the correct setting for the gschem footprint= attribute in []
in the library window for the m4 libraries.
without underscores (REPLACE.*.old, REPLACE.*.new, and REPLACE_FILES.*).
Also convert REPLACE.*.new= ${SH:Q} back to ${SH}, as it should not be quoted
here, if at all.
Ok with rillig.
makeinfo if no native makeinfo executable exists. Honor TEXINFO_REQD
when determining whether the native makeinfo can be used.
* Remove USE_MAKEINFO and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=makeinfo.
* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
major changes:
-supports Python decorator syntax for generators (needs 2.4)
-intbv() doesn't have a default anymore
-many improvements to Verilog conversion
A few new features have been added to allow proper simulation with
newer Xilinx UNISIM models. (They are starting to use Verilog 2001
features.) And also various bug fixes in this release.
-- Primitive and continuous assign delays can now be non-constant. This
needed some new run-time support, so vvp had a slight format change,
and certain new optimizations follow as a result.
-- Bug handling certain constant sub-expressions in concatenation
expressions. Also, allow concat expressions in constant contexts.
-- Support for wide divide expressions.
-- Fixes for stubborn compilers.
-- Fix bugs in padding of signed expressions.
-- More fixes for following the data types of expressions.
- added autobackup (saves to backup files every <n> seconds)
- added "L" drawing support
- added embedded picture support
- added a few new symbols
- added support for spice netlisting of Josephson junction devices
- added pcbpins netlist backend for forward annotating schematic pin
names to PCB layouts.
- several odd bug fixes
- fixes a bug in the cgi frontend for coupled microstrip which caused
lots of bad warning messages.
- replaces the alert dialog box with a log window which prevents multiple
alert windows from appearing.
without affecting packages that are currently using it.
Packages which previously didn't set BUILDLINK_DEPMETHOD to neither "full" nor
"build" now set it to "full", but should be checked whether they really need it
(comment added). Packages which previously set it to "build" now don't set it
anymore.
Ok by jlam, wiz.
