* bump versions to match 8.0 / 9.0_BETA
* Use local directories (NetBSD-daily isn't on ftp.netbsd.org anymore).
Yes, this requires local access to both versions.
* Add detection of .tar.xz sets from "new" version sets
* Overhaul arch-list and machine-lists, add various arm and mips variants
* Add a few comments to hopefully make it easier to grasp what is going on
(according to my best interpretation)
exist in NetBSD 8.0, but which either doesn't exist or exist with a
new major version in NetBSD 9.0_BETA.
The distributions and PLISTs produced by modifying the gencompat.sh
script (will be committed shortly), and running it over the complete
8.0 and 9.0_BETA release binaries.
This package does not attempt to separate out the X11 libraries affected
in a separate compat80-x11 package (since gencompat.sh didn't do it...).
The list of different arm variants is possibly a bit too long, but better
to err on that side than it being too short. The package is otherwise
patterned after the compat61 package.
The motivation is to consider meson as an application, so there is only
one copy on the system, and as a python 3 program, it can build python 2
packages.

==========
List of changes in this release is 60 pages long! No wonder as it's been
four and half years since previous release, and the development never
stopped, mainly thanks to Thorsten. See the 'ChangeLog' file for details.
Tons of things have been fixed in all areas of the ARAnyM, and lots of
new features have been added. Following list is incomplete but still gives
you a good overview:
Notable changes:
----------------
* ARAnyM is hosted by GitHub.com at https://aranym.github.io/
* there are automated builds for x86/amd64, armhf and macOS
* added hotkey for turning audio on/off
* HostFS MiNT file locking implemented
* nfosmesa updated to OpenGL 4.6
* MetaDOS driver improved
* hotkeys work in the Setup GUI dialog as well
* configurable directory for screenshots (via Setup GUI)
* on macOS the configuration file is now looked up first
in ~/Documents/Aranym_files (if it does not exist yet)
* displaying non-ASCII characters in the fileselector
should work now
* path of loaded TOS/EmuTOS can now be selected in the Setup GUI
* JIT CPU compiler now supports Solaris
* JIT CPU compiler now supports more 64bit hosts (like kfreebsd)
New features:
-------------
* NatFeat SCSI driver for Linux
* NatFeat host exec
* NatFeat for query/set CPU JIT
* NatFeat for ARAnyM exit
* new command line option --option
that can set any value from the config file
* AppImage can now be built
0.82.22
- Added Normal2x render scalers so that 'force scaler'
for 1x2 or 2x1 scalefactors works and you can scale
up 320x200/640x200 VGA modes and 640x200 CGA modes
by 2x.
- Main window titlebar now reflects whether or
not the debugger interface is active.
- Debugger interface now flushes terminal input
upon entering the debugger, so that keyboard
input prior to entering the debugger is ignored.
- Debugger mapper shortcut and menu item are now
a toggle. Selecting once will enter the debugger
and selecting again will resume emulation.
- cycles=max now displays cycle percentage correctly
instead of showing e.g. 100 cyc/ms
- (Allofich) Note and ignore INT 33, AX=53C1 call
for the Logitech CyberMan.
- Fixed odd code addition that disabled (through
the configuration) XMS, EMS, and UMB when
booting a guest OS. This fixes a problem where
those services are not available when rebooting
back into the DOSBox-X shell from a guest OS.
- CGA 640x200 and MCGA 640x480 modes fixed to
have proper refresh rate when machine=mcga,
instead of 140Hz.
- MCGA horizontal active display register
encodes N - 1, not N, according to real
hardware register dumps.
- INT 10h modes 2 and 3 updated set MCGA CRTC
write protect bit, to match real PS/2 hardware
behavior, and to unlock CRTC registers during
mode set.
- PC-98 VSYNC interrupt now fires at vertical
retrace start (as documented) instead of at
active display end behavior borrowed from
DOSBox VGA emulation. This fixes "Tonight"
by Swat.
- Fixed mistake that placed N88 ROM BASIC stub
(something specific to PC-98) in memory even
in IBM PC/XT/AT emulation mode.
- Fixed some callback slot leaks that can cause
DOSBox-X to run out of callback slots if you
reset the guest system too much.
- Fixed invalid callback and errant interrupt
handling during BIOS reset delay that happens
if you use the keyboard shortcut to trigger
system reset.
- XMS emulation resets global enable and local
enable state on XMS emulation startup to fix
crashes related to inability to control A20 gate
after system reset or DOS kernel restart.
- Debugger "SM" command now accepts segment:offset
syntax for memory location to write.
- Fixed INT 21h AH=65h bug that returns DBCS table
for AH=4h that should return filename uppercase
table.
- Configuration GUI property settings are now
shown in a single column wide list with scrolling.
- In the configuration GUI, help dialogs will now
present the help text as a scrollable region if
there is too much to fit on screen.
- dosbox.conf mixer rate will now accept any
sample rate from 4KHz to 192KHz instead of only
fixed specific sample rates.
- cascade interrupt ignore in service setting now
accepts true, false, and auto. "auto" is now the
default, and will choose true or false depending
on machine type for correct emulation either way.
It should no longer be necessary to add
"cascade interrupt ignore in service=true" to
your dosbox.conf every time you want to run a
PC-98 game properly.
- PC-98 FM board emulation will now load SOUND.ROM
into segment CC00h if available, if FM board
emulation is enabled.
- PC-98 INT 18h AH=30h updated to return AH=05h
AL=00h BH=00h if success, AH=00h AL=01h BH=01h
if failure. This is needed to get Puyo Puyo 2
to work, which for some reason fails if a call
to set 15KHz mode works.
- PC-98 LIO and SOUND BIOS entry points, while
still not implemented, have been updated to
print the name of the call according to an
online reference.
- DOS FCB rename now supports renaming the
volume label as MS-DOS does.
- Fixed bug that prevented proper DOS FCB rename
if the FCB used to rename is extended.
- FAT filesystem driver updated to also store
updated volume label in the boot sector of the
partition, as per MS-DOS FAT standards.
- FCB create can now be used to set a FAT
filesystem label. MS-DOS LABEL.EXE works
correctly now.
- FAT filesystem driver now allows LABEL command
to change the FAT volume label of mounted disk
images.
- DOS kernel updated to support basic FCB methods
of deleting/setting the volume label, at least
on local folder mounts.
- DOS kernel will now return the volume label of
FAT filesystems mounted from disk images.
- LABEL setting code fixed not to treat label as
if an 8.3 filename.
- LABEL is no longer a builtin shell command and
appears on drive Z: as LABEL.COM
- LABEL reimplemented to imitate MS-DOS behavior
with regard to how it handles the command line.
- File I/O checking and cleanup (Allofich)
- Integrated commits from mainline (Allofich)
- Handle errant IRQs as a real BIOS does. Also
remove r3263 workaround, as it's no longer
needed.
- Fix flag behavior of several shift/rotate
instructions, cause exceptions and fix
potential 'pop ss' problems
- Add support for Print Screen key and
interrupt. In-game screenshot feature
of Descent and Descent 2 now works.
point to mirror which happens to host this distfile (it's marked RESTRICTED,
so we can't host a copy, and probably this mirror shouldn't either, but
it unbreaks the package now.)
New/Improved Features
The Quick Look previewer now produces color-corrected thumbnails
The debugger now supports a wider range of symbol files
Accuracy Improvements/Fixes
Fixed a bug where samples in the wave channel were treated as if they’re 0, effectively muting the channel in some cases.
Fixed a regression that caused some PPU test ROMs to fail
More accurate emulation of memory access conflicts on the Super Game Boy
When emulating a Super Game Boy, built-in palettes for select games are now emulated
Accuracy improvements to Super Game Boy’s multiplayer mode
Super Game Boy and Game Boy Advance now have their own color correction filters
Bug Fixes
Improvements to audio in the SDL port, affecting some machines
Fixed a bug where the SDL port loaded the wrong boot ROM when emulating Super Game Boy 2
Fixed broken audio on libretro when used with some RetroArch audio drivers
Fixed a potential crash when closing a window in the Cocoa port
Fixed libretro achievements
Fixed major performence issues in the Cocoa port that affected some Macs, especially when emulating the original Super Game Boy
Misc Internal Changes
The emulation core now supports emulating a Super Game Boy without high level emulation of the SNES or SFC. SameBoy is now used for Game Boy emulation by bsnes, allowing extremely accurate low-level emulation of Super Game Boy.
Made it possible to compile the SDL port with older SDL versions
Compression improvements to the CGB and AGB boot ROMs
As a fork of DOSBox, DOSBox-X retains compatibility with the wide base of
DOS games DOSBox was designed for.
It also goes further, with a focus on accurate emulation of the hardware,
and many more ways to tweak and configure the DOS virtual machine.
The DOSBox-X team believes that a better way to emulate the legacy PC platform
is to give the user all the options they need to emulate everything from
original IBM PC hardware with 64KB of RAM all the way up to late 90's
hardware, whatever it takes to get that game or software package to run.
pkgsrc changes:
- README.html is no longer in the distribution tarball
so make it optional and generate it using asciidoc and
source-highlight.
Upstream changes (from README.adoc):
.3.2.0 2019/9/14
* Compatible ROM implemented by AKIKAWA Hisashi is now built
in the emulator. Now the emulator is bootable without genuine ROM.
* Fixed timer interrupt interval on SR models.(temporal fix)
* Assigned Alt+F9/F10 hotkey to state save/load.
* Dropped "Patch the ROM" setting. (Because it made JOYSTICK2 unusable.)
melonDS aims at providing fast and accurate Nintendo DS emulation. While it
is still a work in progress, it has a pretty solid set of features:
* Nearly complete core (CPU, video, audio, ...)
* OpenGL renderer, 3D upscaling
* RTC, microphone, lid close/open
* Joystick support
* Savestates
* Various display position/sizing/rotation modes
* (WIP) Wifi: local multiplayer, online connectivity
* and more are planned!

Ancient, unmaintained, dead upstream, and not wanting to build, for some
time.
This version is from 2003 and only supports GTK1.
Lots of alternatives in this category - blastem, mednafen, even the
generator-cbiere fork, if you must.
Start building FreeGLUT with GLUT compatibility on.
- GLUT's maintainance state is much worse than FreeGLUT's, with no
substanital commits since 2011.
- GLUT can no longer be consider a core component of Mesa or X11.
- Nobody except us seems to be using it...
Other vendors still shipping GLUT:
- GoboLinux, T2 SDE, PLD Linux
Revbump packages using GLUT or freeglut by default.
