Buffer overflow in the gzprintf function in zlib 1.1.4, when zlib is compiled
without vsnprintf or when long inputs are truncated using vsnprintf, allows
attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
From OpenBSD.
Restore configure target and add check for [v]snprintf.
Bump PKGREVISION.
avoid running the test. The test, which calls dlopen("libpthread.so"),
fails on NetBSD for reasons unrelated to what it is trying to detect,
glib concludes that RTLD_GLOBAL is broken, and gmodule doesn't work.
This method of fooling configure suggested by Ron Roskens on tech-pkg.

Config::General opens a config file and parses it's contents for
you. After parsing the module returns a hash structure which contains
the representation of the config file.
The format of config files supported by Config::General is inspired
by the well known apache config format, in fact, this module is
100% read-compatible to apache configs, but you can also just use
simple name/value pairs in your config files.
Some relevant changes:
Fixed miswriting of netCDF header when exiting define
mode. Because the header was always written correctly
later, this was only a problem if there was another
reader of the netCDF file.
Fixed explicit synchronizing between netCDF writer and
readers via the nc_sync(), nf_sync(), and ncsync()
functions.
Fixed a number of bugs related to attempts to support
shrinking the header in netCDF files when attributes
are rewritten or deleted. Also fixed the problem that
nc__endef() did not work as intended in reserving
extra space in the file header, since the extra space
would be compacted again on calling nc_close().
Fixed the "redef bug" that occurred when nc_enddef()
or nf_enddef() is called after nc_redef() or
nf_redef(), the file is growing such that the new
beginning of a record variable is in the next "chunk",
and the size of at least one record variable exceeds
the chunk size (see netcdf.3 man page for a
description of this tuning parameter and how to set
it). This bug resulted in corruption of some values
in other variables than the one being added.
The "__" tuning functions for the Fortran interface,
nf__create, nf__open, and nf__enddef, are now
documented in the Fortran interface man pages.
Changed the extension of C++ files from ".cc" to ".cpp".
Renamed the C++ interface header file "netcdfcpp.h"
instead of "netcdf.hh", changing "netcdf.hh" to
include "netcdfcpp.h" for backward compatibility.
Fixed bug in ncdump using same CDL header name when
called with multiple files.
Added new NULL data type NC_NAT (Not A Type) to
facilitate checking whether a variable object has had
its type defined yet, for example when working with
packed values.
Fixed use of compile-time macro NO_NETCDF_2 so it
really doesn't include old netCDF-2 interfaces, as
intended.
Fixed C++ friend declarations to conform to C++ standard.
gconfmm provides a C++ interface for the GConf (version 2) configuration
database system. GConf functionally is similar to the Windows registry,
but lots better.
is incompatible with this old one, so we must keep both in pkgsrc.
Description of libsigc++:
libsigc++ implements a full callback system for use in widget
libraries, abstract interfaces, and general programming. Originally
part of the Gtk-- widget set, libsigc++ is now a seperate library to
provide for more general use. It is the most complete library of its
kind with the ablity to connect an abstract callback to a class
method, function, or function object. It contains adaptor classes for
connection of dissimilar callbacks and has an ease of use unmatched by
other C++ callback libraries. Libsigc++ is licensed under the GNU
Library General Public License, LGPL.

New in 5.5.2 - February, 2003
* Fixes for FreeBSD weirdisms with sed, dlopen(), and the Guile library
* stash offsets in uintptr_t types so this thing works when
sizeof(void*) != sizeof(off_t)
* still more configury fixes. It will never, ever end.
New in 5.5 - December 15, 2002
* The FOR macro will now accept a list of values, as in:
[= FOR v IN one, "two , part" three =]
* snprintfv-0.99f was fully incorporated, saving 300K of distribution
space and a lot of configure time.
* The 'dne' function will accept "-d" as the first argument in order
to suppress the date from the output.
New in 5.4.8 - December 10, 2002
* Freed AutoOpts from libguile. It was never really dependent.
* new snprintfv library incorporated
PR pkg/20270 with minor nitpicks by myself.
Some of the changes since 1.2.1:
* configure.in: fix minor problem where we used the guile-gtk
config program even when it wasn't found.
* acconfig.h: deleted since deprecated -- replaced by three arg
AC_DEFINEs in configure.in.

/usr/include or similar. Newer gcc's don't like that at all.
* bin/g-wrap-config.in (c-compile-args): don't output -I if it's
/usr/include. The new gcc doesn't like -I /usr/include at all.
* test/Makefile.am (gw-test-enumeration.scm gw-test-enumeration.h
gw-test-enumeration.c gw-test-enumeration.html
gw-test-enumeration-autogen.h): use LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

comparisons.
* g-wrap.scm: switch to use of SCM_FALSEP and SCM_NFALSEP rather
than direct SCM_BOOL_* comparisons.
Bugs fixed in 1.7.3:
* Fix stamp files numbering (when using multiple AC_CONFIG_HEADERS).
* Query distutils for `pythondir' and `pythonexecdir', instead of
using an hardcoded path. This should allow builds on 64-bit
distributions that usually use lib64/ instead of lib/.
* AM_PATH_PYTHON will also search for python2.3.
* elisp files are now built all at once instead of one by one. Besides
incurring a speed-up, this is required to support interdependent elisp files.
* Fix some incompatibilities with upcoming perl-5.10.
* Properly quote AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME and AC_PACKAGE_VERSION when defining
PACKAGE and VERSION.
* depcomp fixes:
- dashmstdout and dashXmstdout modes: don't use `-o /dev/null', this
is troublesome with gcc and Solaris compilers.
- makedepend mode: work with Libtool.
- support for ICC.
* better support for unusual gettext setups, such as multiple po/ directories:
- Flag missing po/ and intl/ directories as warnings, not errors.
- Disable these warnings if po/ does not exist.
* Noteworthy manual updates:
- New FAQ chapter.
- Document how AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR interacts with missing files.
(Debian Bug #39542)
- Document `AM_YFLAGS = -d'.
* mpn/generic/rootrem.c: In Newton loop, pad qp with leading zero.
* mpn/generic/rootrem.c: Allocate 1.585 (log2(3)) times more space
for pp temporary to allow for worst case overestimate of root.
Add some asserts.
* tests/mpz/t-root.c: Generalize and speed up.
* mpfr/pow.c: Fixed bug (infinite loop) for exact powers.
* mpfr/sub.c: Fixed wrong inexact flag for a - b where a and b are of
different signs and EXP(a) < EXP(b).
* printf/printffuns.c (gmp_fprintf_reps): Make it actually work
for padding > 256.
* gmp-impl.h (USE_LEADING_REGPARM): Disable for PIC code generation.
* mpn/generic/tdiv_qr.c: Remove a bogus assert.
* mpn/generic/mode1o.c, mpn/alpha/ev5/mode1o.c: Correction to ASSERTs.
Reported by Christoph Ludwig.
* mpf/urandomb.c: Truncate nbits to precision of rop.
* configure.in (sparc v9 *bsd*): Add NetBSD and OpenBSD sparc64.
(x86 openbsd*): Extra underscore for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
* mpn/generic/rootrem.c: Avoid overflow in xnb calculation.
* mpz/root.c: Avoid overflow in rootnb calculation.
* gmpxx.h (__gmp_binary_equal, __gmp_binary_not_equal): Fix broken
mpq/double functions.
* mpn/m68k/lshift.asm: Fix typo in !scale_available_p code.
* mpn/m68k/rshift.asm: Likewise.
* mpz/remove.c: Make src==0 return 0, not do DIVIDE_BY_ZERO.
* mpfr/acinclude.m4 (MPFR_CONFIGS): Patch by Vincent for an apparent
float rounding gremlin on powerpc.
* mpf/inp_str.c: Fix returned count of chars read, reported by Paul
Zimmermann. Also fix a memory leak for invalid input.
* mpfr/set_q.c: Allow for 1 bit numerator or denominator.
gnome-common contains a set of M4 macros useful to easily write configure
scripts for GNOME 1 and GNOME 2 programs. These macros provide a set of
checks used by many GNOME programs that need to do similar things.
Changes:
0.6.4:
======
- Fixed some docs installation problems. (Eric Dorland & Damon)
- Took 'Curve Type' property out for GtkCurve & GtkGammaCurve, since GTK+
has a bug which makes this crash pretty often. (Damon)
- Removed some unfinished GnomeDB widgets from the palette (Rodrigo Moya)
0.6.3:
======
- Fixed some BadMatch problems on multi-depth displays (Dave Camp).
- Better GnomeDB support (Rodrigo Moya, Jos<E9> Antonio Salgueiro Aquino,
Daniel Wagner),
- Fixed properties problem where properties didn't get updated on focus-out
- Fixed bug when using GtkText and gettext (Dennis Brakhane).
- Updated docs to use DocBook 4.0, and avoided use of stylesheet images so
it compiles easier.
- New translations - Romanian (Marius Andreiana), Simplified Chinese
(Wang Jian) and Portuguese (Duarte Loreto).
configuration database from beeing modified by packages that do not honour
the --disable-schemas-install option. There is no need to patch these broken
packages any more.
Okay'ed by wiz.
rebuild the documentation database at install/deinstall time. This means
that:
- PLIST's do not need to call scrollkeeper-{update,rebuilddb} directly;
this is done by a bsd.pkg.install.mk template.
- The share/omf directory is only removed by scrollkeeper, which is the
last package in the dependancy tree.
- PKGREVISION is bumped.
