This release fixes a security bug (possible local exploit).
other changes:
* DBus support is now enabled by default
- improved screensaver support
* Added 'CHANNELPREV' event (for vdr-xine 0.7.10).
* Deferred preferences window initialisation until it's actually
opened. (This noticeably speeds up startup.)
* Fixed some indexing errors in the playlist drag&drop code.
* Some small filename buffer usage cleanups.
New features: prevent screen blanking in windowed mode; show time
remaining; include a JPEG version of the logo for when distributors are
scared to include MPEG codecs in xine-lib. gxine also now knows about
xscreensaver. And some minor fixes.
pthread_mutex_lock. This avoids xine taking 100% CPU load on DragonFly.
Issue reported on DragoFly mailing list and pointed out by
YONETANI Tomokazu. Bump revision.
changes:
* Restored disabling of VO deinterlacer when there are active
deinterlacer plugins. I finally realised what was missing...
* Added names to some windows for use in ~/.gxine/gtkrc: video,
fs_toolbar, wm_toolbar.
* Added a few name attributes to the toolbar XML and some example style
info (commented out) to the default gtkrc for the full-screen toolbar.
* When determining a default MRL title, resolve symbolic links.
* Prevent text insertion before the system-wide startup script.
* A couple of Undo shortcuts got missed in 0.5.6.
* Fixed some problems with switching to/from full-screen.
* Fixed a startup bug in the window size submenu. (Bug 1487691)
* Fixed a bug which prevented the video window from being shrunk.
(Ubuntu bug 46403)
* Fixed a problem with update of the window size menu.
* Hopefully fixed a Javascript crash-on-start bug. (Bug 1482697)
* Added a watchdog which will abort gxine if it hangs for 30s.
(Disabled by default.)
* Italian translation from Diego Petten<C3><B2>.
* Build fixes for autoconf 2.59c and later.
New features include automatic handling of separate subtitles files,
DVD title/chapter display, and improved playlist item
management and creation. There are some small but potentially useful
Javascript additions too, and quite a few small tweaks and fixes
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.
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.
aalib-x11 and aview-x11.
SDL dependencies change, so bump PKGREVISION (and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED)
for affected packages.
Addresses PR 32046 by Leonard Schmidt.
* Make XTest optional (screenblanker-defeating fake keypresses).
It seems to be causing problems...
* Don't touch the volume at startup if remember_volume isn't set.
* Don't reset the volume on exit - xine-lib alters it (if
remember_volume is set) before gxine gets anywhere near it.
* Fix Xinerama handling.
* Enforce black background beyond video area within video window.
* Don't create links to the browser plugin if it isn't present.
* Added Simplified Chinese translation. (Tao Pin, Dong Changdao)
* Fix a few filename-related memory leaks.
* Fixed problems with # in filenames.
* Use --as-needed (if supported) when linking.
changes:
gxine has gained post-plugin chain support and improved playlist handling,
and there are some fixes for some crashes (notably for full-screen mode
and non-UTF-8 locales)
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
Changes:
0.4.5:
======
- SECURITY FIX (pst.advisory 2005-21)
Remotely-exploitable missing-format-string vulnerability in some
message dialogue boxes.
- Fixed some brokenness in the visualisations menu; hide/show the
video widget as needed when selecting an item from that menu.
- Better handling of uninstantiatable post-plugins (when configuring).
- Caught and replaced another asprintf. [Bug 1204625]
- Compile fix (Solaris): need $(X_EXTRA_LIBS).
- Correct the documentation of the '-e' option in gxine.1.
- Don't set a title for the full-screen toolbar.
- Set up X threads earlier (it was being done too late).
(based on a patch from Antti P Miettinen <ananaza@iki.fi>.)
0.4.4:
======
- Added support for VDR's AUDIO key.
- Made the browser plugin optional.
- Stop playback on playlist clear.
- Fixed a bug in multi-file drag+drop.
0.4.3:
======
- Fix a bug in JS vdr(). It should check the active MRL rather than
the currently-selected playlist entry.
- Fix a post-plugin parameter handling error.
- Provide a few more default bindings with keys.
- Fix a compile failure when using xine-lib 1.0 headers. Whoops :-(
- Added doc/Keybindings-HOWTO (from Craig Sanders).
0.4.2:
======
- Use external JS lib by default (if available).
If you're using amd64, you want this, I'm told.
- This version should be buildable and useable with GTK+2.2.
It may also use, but not rely on, a few features from GTK+2.6.
- Configure switches for GTK+ versions compatibility and whether to
use the desktop integration wizard. (Mainly for packagers.)
- Mark 'repeat' and 'random' buttons (playlist) as having accelerator
keys.
- Improve prefs window numeric entry editing.
- "tvtime" deinterlace plugin support.
- Video and audio post-plugin chain support.
The deinterlace plugin is prepended to the video chain if enabled.
The visualisation plugin is prepended to the audio chain if active.
- Hide tab & border for single-page notebooks in the prefs window.
- Make columns in playlist etc. resizable.
- Fixed a few crash/warning bugs (mediamarks/playlist item edit) left
over from 0.4.1.
- Respond to volume changes made externally.
- Fix crash on virtual desktop change. The full-screen window is now
sticky and on all desktops. (If you have a better way of fixing
this which *doesn't* require this, let me know.)
- Fix overlay bug with window managers, such as IceWM, which have
their own toolbars.
- Text preferences which are uncommitted may be undone by Ctrl '-' or
Undo.
- Make the visualisation setting a preference.
- Fix a few problems in playlist expansion via xine-lib.
- Add JS event(NAME) function and make event() and vdr() output help
text if called without parameters.
- Add keybinding entries for 'next angle' and 'previous angle'.
- Save the A/V offset setting.
- Build fix: apparently, Spidermonkey isn't always libsmjs.so.
- Stop GTK's complaints when the locale doesn't use UTF-8.
(This is done by telling gettext that we want translated text in
UTF-8. Some is intended for the console; this isn't special-cased.)
- Add a few extra icons to the menus.
- Add config options for default window size and magnification of
low-res video streams.
- Improve live-stream detection; recognise streams of unknown length.
- Improve the current stream title display.
- Rely on xine-lib's XML parser and quote some characters when saving
the playlist, media marks and key bindings.
- Change the way in which the control button images are implemented.
(There are problems with some GTK+ theme engines otherwise.)
- Try to update the current playlist item's title from the stream
automatically unless the title has been edited.
- Deleting a playlist item will, if it is being played, cause the
next item to be played (or the player to enter idle mode).
- Use ellipsis in long entries in the playlist & mediamarks windows.
(Requires GTK+2.6.)
- Allow drag&drop for reordering playlist items.
- Prevent multiple install wizard instantiations.
- Add menu tooltips for plugins with short descriptions in the plugin
chain configuration windows.
- Make playlist repeat & random settings persistent. (Guenter)
PKGREVISION not bumped since these changes only matter for
FreeBSD build which failed in the first place.
Note that xine-lib is needed, but the xine-lib fixes for
FreeBSD have not been committed yet.
(If you are curious, I am using gxine on FreeBSD all installed
via pkgsrc to watch a MS Windows Media 7 ASF video and listen to
MS Windows Media Audio 2 without any win32-codecs installed.)
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
