changes since 3.02:
4.0.7
Changes: This version fixes some rare infinite loops and wrong results
that occurred when the s command had a numeric option and the regular
expression could match the empty string.
4.0.6
Changes: This release improves portability a lot, and adds a
configure-time switch to choose between the included regex matcher and
the system matcher (on glibc systems only).
4.0.5
Changes: This release fixes a few portability bugs and improves the
quality of the documentation. "a", "i", "l", "L", and "=" now accept
address ranges.
4.0.3
Changes: A packaging problem with two missing translation catalogs was
fixed.
4.0.2
Changes: This release makes sed able to bootstrap itself on operating
systems that cannot run the configure script.
4.0.1
Changes: This release includes translations for over 20 languages, and
cleans up the binary and documentation files from references to
super-sed.
4.0
Changes: This release has been merged with super-sed and supports all
of its features, except for Perl regular expressions. This includes
in-place editing, new sed commands, better documentation, and support
for changing the case of the characters with the `s' command. The
performance and correctness of the regular expression matcher have
also been improved.
gcc3 from pkgsrc now work as expected, but more work is required to
correctly handle the MIPSPro compiler on IRIX and SunPro on Solaris,
as well as an external gcc.
Add mozilla and pango to the list of packages for which
-frename-registers triggers bug in the binutils shipped with 1.6.x
(Thanks to Frederick Bruckman for identifying the issue)
Treat AMD Duron as Athlon
Replace PKG_EXCLUDE_O3 with PKG_EXCLUDE_RENAME_REGISTERS as its
specifically the -frename-registers that causes problems. Set for ORBit
- Detect fpuless mac68k boxes and add -msoft-float
- Check ${USETOOLS} to avoid setting gcc3 flags when compiling NetBSD
userland with built in tools, but with gcc3 installed
- Default to -O3 again for all except perl5 and perl58 under gcc3
Notable changes in this latest version are listed here. Some code
cleanup work and documentation editing has also been done.
256-color limit removed
Icon's X-windows interface previously limited each window to 256
colors at one time. This limitation has been removed for the TrueColor
displays provided by most modern computers. Median-cut quantization is
used to select 256 image colors when WriteImage() is called to write a
GIF file.
Library changes
As usual, several files in the Icon program library have been added or
edited. The core library files, however, remain stable.
Minor changes
* The command "icon - [args]" can now be used to execute a source
program read from standard input.
* A new "icont -N" flag suppresses embedding of an iconx path in the
generated executable
* The configuration directory has been restructured.
* Several obsolete configurations have been removed.
* The environment variables HEAPSIZE and BLOCKSIZE no longer
function as undocumented alternatives to BLKSIZE. The GNU ls
utility uses BLOCKSIZE for other purposes, leading to confusion.
* "make Install" has been changed to never delete anything. It now
creates a new directory rather than altering an existing one.
it won't die if libpthread.so is dynamically loaded later.

Mainly bugfixing and a new command `dvd+rw-mediainfo' wich gives
information about what kind of disc is in the drive, its used `booktype'
and session information when applicable.
The main differences to the package itself seem to be in its packaging.
Main changes to the package:
Correct the comment.
Make this much more portable to other pkgsrc platforms
Generalise for X11 locations other than /usr/X11R6.
Use a do-install target in the package Makefile
Let pkgsrc do any manual page manipulation
Change the cupsd rc.d script to REQUIRE slpd. This is needed for the
case where cupsd actually uses SLP to register services (by setting
BrowseProtocols to include "slp") and does nothing otherwise.
* findsmb is a perl script, and we need to substitute the correct path to
the perl interpreter.
* Don't create ${PREFIX}/private during a "make install" as it's a
completely useless directory.
* Don't bother to install the completely outdated Samba HTML documentation
that is superseded by the Samba HOWTO Collection documentation.
package version number correction fixing previous, wrongly-assigned numbers.
To install 3.6pl3 or later, you need to remove older packages manually.
Please forgive this.
This is a stand-alone version of Gnus mail / news reader package
running on GNU Emacs. This package is supposed to catch up to newer
versions of Gnus than found in GNU Emacs distributions.
Provided by Love Hoernquist-Astrand <lha at netbsd dot org>.
* Improve IPv6 support.
* Make XIM, Ximp start keys configurable.
* Keep input modes across conversations. (History functions.)
* Convert "oh" as "oo".
* Support "Off The Spot" style.
And tons of bug fixes.
* Update Canna packages to 3.6p3. From Toru Takamizu in PR#20208.
* Use inputmethod/canna/Makefile.{common,include} for common
definitions/inclusions.
* Deprecate canna-server and introduce inputmethod/canna as the new
Canna meta package.
- Add some additional x86 flags for gcc 3.x
- Allow the path to cc to be specified as an argument to cpuflags
- Use both the previous to handle the gcc3 package
- Add an 'unsupported' optimize_gcc.mk which... to quote its comments:
"This file is 'experimental' - which is doublespeak for unspeakably
ugly, and probably quite broken by design.
The intention is to pass additional flags to gcc to further optimise
generated code. It _will_ make it impossible to debug, may fail to
compile some code, and even generate curdled binaries. It is completely
unsupported. Any questions should be directed to <abs@netbsd.org>.
A whole lot has changed since our old 2.11
package, most notably the fact that blender is now Open Source Software, and
we can thus compile it instead of using binary only packages. The new homepage
is http://www.blender.org.
This package tested under NetBSD/i386, NetBSD/macppc and Linux/i386 -- other
platforms are encouraged to test, but hardly any modifications should be
necessary.
Adobe PostScript printer drivers for MS Windows 9x/NT to use CUPS as a
networked PostScript RIP (raster image processor), handling printfiles
from all client platforms in a uniform way, and enabling clients to
consolidate on a single PostScript driver, even for many different target
printers.
- Use autoconf.mk to regenerate configure script instead of adding a
huge patch to the patches directory.
- The CUPS driver now properly generates CIE colorspaces.
- The pstoraster wrapper didn't correctly pass the cupsProfile attribute
into Ghostscript; this resulted in user-defined profiles being ignored
when printing PS files.
- The CUPS driver now properly rotates the page when given a landscape
PageSize.
- Replaced the "lxm3200" driver (gdevlx32.c) by a modified version which
supports also the Z31 and the Z12
- Updated japanese driver pack "gdevlips" from version 2.3.4 to 2.4.0. The
pack contains the devices "lips2p" "bjc880j". "lips4", "lips4v",
"escpage", "lp2000". "npdl", and "rpdl". "rpdl" is newly added (for
Ricoh's RPDL printers).
- Added "#define USE_POSSIBLY_FLAWED_COMPRESSION 1" to src/gdevhl7x.c
(driver "hl7x0"). This fixes the problem that the printer stops in the
middle of the page.
- security fix to scheduler to address a DoS attack
- improve conformance to IPP specification
- miscellaneous bug fixes to server and userland utilities
- plug memory leaks
- bug fixes to SSL code
- the mime.convs file was missing the filter definition for Windows BMP
(image/x-bitmap) files
- improved test suite
- added CUPS support files for Java, Perl, and PHP
- The cups-lpd mini-daemon now sends jobs to the default queue when an
empty queue name (or "lp" and there is no "lp" queue) is sent.
- The scheduler now supports fax queues identified by a "*cupsFax: True"
attribute in the PPD file.
- The scheduler now supports print files that have been compressed using
gzip.
- Added a robots.txt file to the standard install to prevent search
engines from indexing the CUPS server.
- When writing BSD printcap files, the scheduler now includes the rm and
rp attributes, allowing the file to be exported to LPD clients.
- The pdftops filter now scales PDF pages within the printable area of the
page.
- The PostScript filter now supports binary PostScript files and files
beginning with the PJL language escape sequence.
- Fixed the CIE colorspace support code in the image and PS RIPs.
Changes:
03-03-18 --- Release ksh93o ---
03-03-18 A -N unary operator was added to test and [[...]] which returns
true if the file exists and the file has been modified since it
was last read.
03-03-18 The TIMEFORMAT variable was added to control the format for
the time compound command. The formatting description is
described in the man page.
03-03-06 A -N n option was added to read which causes exactly n bytes
to be read unlike -n n which causes at most n bytes to be read.
03-03-03 Three new shell variables were added. The variable .sh.file
stores the full pathname of the file that the current command
was found in. The variable .sh.fun names the current function
that is running. The variable .sh.subshell contains the depth
of the current subshell or command substitution.
03-03-03 When the DEBUG trap is executed, the current command line after
expansions is placed in the variable .sh.command. The trap
is also now triggered before each iteration of a for, select,
and case command and before each assignment and redirection.
03-02-28 Function definitions are no longer stored in the history file so
that set -o nolog no longer has any meaning.
03-02-28 All function definitions can be displayed with typeset -f not
just those stored in the history file. In addition, typeset +f
displays the function name followed by a comment containg the
line number and the path name for the file that defined this function.
03-02-28 A bug in which the value of $LINENO was not correct when executing
command contained inside mult-line command substitutions has been
fixed.
03-02-19 Since some existing ksh88 scripts use the undocumented and
unintended ability to insert a : in front of the % and # parameter
expansion operators, ksh93 was modified to accept :% as equivalent
to % and :# as equivalent to # with ${name op word}.
03-02-14 A bug which could cause a core dump when reading from standard
error when standard error was a pty has been fixed.
03-02-14 The shell arithmetic was modified to use long double on systems
that provide this data type.
03-02-09 A bug in which a function located in the first directory in FPATH
would not be found when the last component of PATH was . and the
current directory was one of the directories in PATH has been fixed.
03-02-07 The trap and kill builtin commands now accept a leading SIG prefix
on the signal names as documented.
03-02-05 A bug in the expansion of ${var/$pattern}, when pattern contained
\[ has been fixed.
03-02-05 A bug in which .sh.match[n], n>0, was not being set for substring
matches with % and %% has been fixed.
03-01-15 A bug in which getopts did not work for numerical arguments specified
as n#var in the getopts string has been fixed.
03-01-09 A bug in which using ${.sh.match} multiple times could lead to
a memory exception has been fixed.
03-01-06 A bug in the expansion of ${var/pattern/$string} in the case that
$string contains \digit has been fixed.
03-01-02 A -P option was added for systems such as Solaris 8 that support
profile shell.
03-01-02 For backward compatibility with ksh88, arithmetic expansion
with ((...)) and let has been modified so that if x is a zero-filled
variable, $x will not be treated as an octal constant.
we install them into a private directory under the the normal Perl
installation and configure Perl so that site-specific Perl man3 pages
are installed into a private directory within site_perl. This avoids
manpage conflicts between 3rd-party modules, the standard Perl library,
and other packages.
The changes implement some unfinished work that is alluded to in the
MakeMaker.pm module by allowing "installsiteman{1,3}dir" to be set
during the configuration process and are used to provide default values
for INSTALLSITEMAN{1,3}DIR during the Perl module build/install process.
Bump PKGREVISIONs for lang/perl5 and lang/perl58.
Tested on NetBSD-current and Solaris 9.
Caveats
* The preprocessor no longer accepts multi-line string literals.
They were deprecated in 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2.
* The preprocessor no longer supports the -A- switch when appearing
alone. -A- followed by an assertion is still supported.
* Support for all the systems obsoleted in GCC 3.1 has been removed
from GCC 3.3.
* Checking for null format arguments has been decoupled from the rest
of the format checking mechanism. Programs which use the format
attribute may regain this functionality by using the new nonnull
function attribute. Note that all functions for which GCC has a
built-in format attribute, an appropriate built-in nonnull attribute
is also applied.
* The DWARF (version 1) debugging format has been deprecated and will
be removed in a future version of GCC. Version 2 of the DWARF
debugging format will continue to be supported for the foreseeable
future.
* The C and Objective-C compilers no longer accept the "Naming Types"
extension (typedef foo = bar); it was already unavailable in C++.
Code which uses it will need to be changed to use the "typeof"
extension instead: typedef typeof(bar) foo. (We have removed this
extension without a period of deprecation because it has caused
the compiler to crash since version 3.0 and no one noticed until
very recently. Thus we conclude it is not in widespread use.)
* The -traditional C compiler option has been removed. It was
deprecated in 3.1 and 3.2. (Traditional preprocessing remains
available.) The <varargs.h> header, used for writing variadic
functions in traditional C, still exists but will produce an error
message if used.
New Targets and Target Specific Improvements [trimmed for length and
relevance to NetBSD]
* The SPARC, HP-PA, SH4, and x86/pentium ports have been converted
to use the DFA processor pipeline description.
* The following NetBSD configurations for the SuperH processor family
have been added:
o SH3, big-endian, sh-*-netbsdelf*
o SH3, little-endian, shle-*-netbsdelf*
o SH5, SHmedia, big-endian, 32-bit default, sh5-*-netbsd*
o SH5, SHmedia, little-endian, 32-bit default, sh5le-*-netbsd*
o SH5, SHmedia, big-endian, 64-bit default, sh64-*-netbsd*
o SH5, SHmedia, little-endian, 64-bit default, sh64le-*-netbsd*
* The following changes have been made to the IA-32/x86-64 port:
o SSE2 and 3dNOW! intrinsics are now supported.
o Support for thread local storage has been added to the IA-32
and x86-64 ports.
o The x86-64 port has been significantly improved.
