The patch against regcomp.c (uninitialized variable) has been fed back
to the perl maintainers. The others are more like workarounds for known
toolchain problems and not fed back (for now).
The hints/netbsd.sh file has an additional change: the perl buildin malloc
(which is disabled in pkgsrc builds via configure arguments anyway) is now
disabled in the hints file as well. This makes it possible to build a
working perl outside of pkgsrc with this hints file. Wheter this hints file
should be fed back is subject to further discussion.
Make perl not build against a dynamic libperl.so.
There are two reasons: (a) the dynamic libperl.so version does not work
at all on sparc64, and (b) the static linked version is said to have a
significant performance improvement on some platforms (i.e. sparc). I think
the libperl.so was enabled by accident when switching from perl 5.0.4 to
5.6.0.
Other packages using libperl.so should not depend on perl5-base but on
../libperl.
KDE in mind. It offers the opportunity to play backgammon games by
using a convenient and intuitive graphical user interface.
bacKgammon is the direct successor of KFibs. the latter was a
program for playing backgammon games on the first internet backgammon
server (FIBS). bacKgammon is an almost complete rewrite of KFibs
to fix some of the most obvious problems:
* improved visual appearance of the board
* improved user interface design: fewer dialog boxes and improved
appearance of the main window
* better code design for easier maintainability and extensibility
* better extensibility by separating the board from the driving
backgammon engine - include
* your backgammon server or use the GNU backgammon engine gnubg to play
Usage of bacKgammon does not require a connection to the Internet,
nor does it require an account on FIBS. You can use the program to
play backgammon against yourself (which might become boring after
a while) or against friends by using the offline engine.
(Free) fips.com login required.
* new setting ftp:bind-data-socket (bool) to disable binding of local end
of data connection in passive mode.
* https and ftps protocols support (openssl library is needed for that).
* completion now appends a slash to remote directories (finally!).
* new mirror option --parallel=[N] to download several files in parallel.
* ask for password for ftp:proxy if not supplied.
* now if you set ftp:proxy to http://proxy.host:port, hftp will be used
automatically instead of ftp, but pwd will still show ftp://.
* large file (>2G) support added.
* full http keep-alive support.
* new settings http:put-method (PUT or POST), http:put-content-type,
http:post-content-type.
* new setting xfer:max-redirections for http redirections following.
* automatic cookie accepting (off by default). New setting http:set-cookies.
* two http specific quote commands: `quote set-cookie' and `quote post'.
(e.g. `quote set-cookie var=value' or `quote post /cgi-bin/script.cgi
var=value > output'.
* send encoded path in http protocol as it was entered by user in URL.
(e.g. `get http://www.server.net/abc.cgi?arg=cba -o cba')
* new settings http:accept, http:accept-charset, http:accept-language.
* new setting cmd:move-background to disable automatic moving to background;
`exit bg' forces moving to background.
* `wait all' waits for termination of all jobs.
* show QUIT reply in debug output.
* new setting ftp:use-quit.
* new setting net:persist-retries (ignore this number of hard errors).
* new setting ftp:auto-sync-mode (extended regex) to match first server reply.
* try to connect to original IP when PASV returns address from private
network and original IP is not in private network.
* add workarounds for hftp over apache proxy.
* use getipnodebyname or getaddrinfo when gethostbyname2 is unavailable.
and a lot of bugfixes.
Major changes since 0.6.0:
* A new diff frontend based on -u instead of --side-by-side.
Now this works even for people who have 150 characters
per line ;-) There is also a change bar a la tkdiff.
* The log tree now shows the tags attached to each
revision, thanks to a patch by Florent Pillet.
* It compiles and works again with KDE pre2.0
* Arrow keys work in the diff dialog
* Support for cvs watch / cvs edit (the latter based
on an idea by Steffen Dettmer
* Less flicker in diff, annotate and resolve view
when using Qt2/KDE2
* Bug fixes
Changes since 0.5.0:
* repositories dialog
* Implemented "Open recent"
* Implemented "History"
* Added a button in the checkout dialog to obtain a list of modules
* Show sandbox in caption
* Much more detailed pseudo session management.
Please delete your cervisiarc file!
* Implemented "Merge"
* Implemented "Prune empty directories"
* Implemented "Select by tag" in log dialog
