Notable changes are:
February 27, 2001:
=================
* Released LibGTop 1.0.12 "Gerolzhofen".
- fix for Solaris 8 from Laszlo PETER (msg_limits, sem_limits).
- fix for FreeBSD 4.2 from Rolf Grossmann (FreeBSD now uses
`_KERNEL' instead of `KERNEL'). Bug #51334.
- for BSDI, comment out `subnet' field in netload; this should make
it compile, but there may be other problems. Bug #13345.
This release is for GNOME 1.4 Beta2.
February 14, 2001:
=================
* Released LibGTop 1.0.11 "Jasmin":
[The release which was supposed to be called "Gerolzhofen".]
- merged in the Solaris code from LIBGTOP_1_1_2_PATCHES.
- minor OpenBSD fixes.
- again a bunch of updated translations.
Please test the Solaris stuff and report and bugs and
problems as soon as possible; I'll make a new release
for the 2nd beta of GNOME 1.4 if necessary.
November 20, 2000:
=================
* Released LibGTop 1.0.10 "November Rain":
- this release contains a bunch of updated translations.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
-it has been suggested (Soren) that the routines in sysdeps/freebsd/prockernel.c
are of minimal use anyway and should just be disabled.
-it has also been suggested (Soren) that the right way anyway is to use the KERN_PROC2 sysctl.
I do not have a recent enough machine to try this (this sysctl was not part of
NetBSD-1.4.2).
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
in PR pkg/8691, to make it build on m68k. Also, kvm_uread() -> kvm_read().
This may fix the other problems alluded to in the PR.
LibGTop-1.0.7 is a bug fix release, no details available. LibGTop-1.06
incorporated some *BSD fixes (including some pkg patches), and updated
the reference manual somewhat.
It's supposed to be functional under NetBSD-1.4, but apparently still
doesn't quite work. I'm checking this in, since it's possible to debug
this package, but I don't have the know-how to do so. Perhaps someone
more knowledgeable will find this helpful.
