Changes since 1.35 (too many to mention here, please see the
ChangeLog in the bison source distribution):
* GNU m4 is now required.
* Various bug fixes.
* intl source removed.
NetBSD pkgsrc changes:
* Change of maintainer thorpej->cjep.
Changes in 0.8, state: alpha
----------------------------
* Full rewrite of Buildtool's own build system, which should
improve maintenance and portability.
* New module bt_install, which provides a portable install program
to not depend on specific system details to do installation.
* New pthread.subr module for bt_config, which provides functions
for automatic detection of a pthreads implementation in the
current system.
* Added checks in bt_config: bt_check_func, to check for generic
functions (not specific to any library), and bt_check_type, to
check for the presence of a generic type.
* Fixes in bt_config's loadable module support. It was severely
broken in the previous version.

Update to 2.4.2.
Notable changes are:
* Fixed keyboard input handling for various configuration dialogs: popup menus
can now invoked by ALT-<underlined char>
* Implemented redundancy removal in description texts of French
providers (e.g. multiple "Au sommaire: ..." paragraphs). (Note that
these repetitions exist because both a short and long version of the
programme description is broadcasted; nxtvepg displays these
together, but in TV sets they would normally appear on different
pages)
Changes since 0.4.3:
* Fixed some hangs that occurred when seeking in MPEG files
* Reworked the looping code - it should work better now
* Fixed memory leak when sound was disabled
* Widened initial search for audio streams in MPEG files
* plaympeg now shows the name of the MPEG file in the caption
* Added a check for the socklen_t type (thanks Michael Pruett)
* Fixed crash with incorrectly encoded macroblock sequences
* Fixed crash when the MPEG file can't be opened
* Fixed crash in gtv when seeking without a file loaded
Patch provided in PR pkg/19389 by Juan RP, with some minor modifications
by me.
This release represents many bug fixes, expanded language coverage,
greatly enhanced xilinx fpga synthesis and several performance enhancements.
The complete list is rather long.
Change since 1.3: Set BSDSRCDIR, OBJMACHINE and MKOBJDIRS when calling
build.sh and nbmake, so object directories are created in the right place,
not inside the sources.
Secret Rabbit Code (aka libsamplerate) is a Sample Rate Converter for audio.
One example of where such a thing would be useful is converting audio from
the CD sample rate of 44.1kHz to the 48kHz sample rate used by DAT players.
SRC is capable of arbitrary and time varying conversions; from downsampling
by a factor of 12 to upsampling by the same factor. Arbitrary in this case
means that the ratio of input and output sample rates can be an irrational
number. The conversion ratio can also vary with time for speeding up and
slowing down effects.
SRC provides a small set of converters to allow quality to be traded off
against computation cost. The current best converter provides a
signal-to-noise ratio of 97dB with -3dB passband extending from DC to 96%
of the theoretical best bandwidth for a given pair of input and output
sample rates.
There have been several changes since 1.0.1, but the most important ones
are (according to the homepage):
- Version 1.0.2 (Nov 24 2002) Added VOX ADPCM format.
- Version 1.0.3 (Dec 09 2002) Fixes for Linux on ia64 CPUs.
