CHANGES IN R 4.0.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* On platforms using configure option --with-internal-tzcode,
additional values "internal" and (on macOS only) "macOS" are
accepted for the environment variable TZDIR. (See ?TZDIR.)
On macOS, "macOS" is used by default if the system timezone
database is a newer version than that in the R installation.
* When install.packages(type = "source") fails to find a package in
a repository it mentions package versions which are excluded by
their R version requirement and links to hints on why a package
might not be found.
* The default value for options("timeout") can be set from
enviromnent variable R_DEFAULT_INTERNET_TIMEOUT, still defaulting
to 60 (seconds) if that is not set or invalid.
This may be needed when child R processes are doing downloads,
for example during the installation of source packages which
download jars or other forms of data.
LINK-TIME OPTIMIZATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* There is now support for parallelized Link-Time Optimization
(LTO) with GCC and for 'thin' LTO with clang _via_ setting the
LTO macro.
* There is support for setting a different LTO flag for the Fortran
compiler, including to empty when mixing clang and gfortran (as
on macOS). See file config.site.
* There is a new LTO_LD macro to set linker options for LTO
compilation, for example to select an alternative linker or to
parallelize thin LTO.
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* The LINPACK argument to chol.default(), chol2inv(),
solve.default() and svd() has been defunct since R 3.1.0. Using
it now gives a warning which will become an error in R 4.1.0.
BUG FIXES:
* The code mitigating stack overflow with PCRE regexps on very long
strings is enabled for PCRE2 < 10.30 also when JIT is enabled,
since stack overflows have been seen in that case.
* Fix to correctly show the group labels in dotchart() (which where
lost in the ylab improvement for R 4.0.0).
* addmargins(*, ..) now also works when fn() is a local function,
thanks to bug report and patch PR#17124 from Alex Bertram.
* rank(x) and hence sort(x) now work when x is an object (as per
is.object(x)) of type "raw" _and_ provides a valid `[` method,
e.g., for gmp::as.bigz(.) numbers.
* chisq.test(*, simulate.p.value=TRUE) and r2dtable() now work
correctly for large table entries (in the millions). Reported by
Sebastian Meyer and investigated by more helpers in PR#16184.
* Low-level socket read/write operations have been fixed to
correctly signal communication errors. Previously, such errors
could lead to a segfault due to invalid memory access. Reported
and debugged by Dmitriy Selivanov in PR#17850.
* quantile(x, pr) works more consistently for pr values slightly
outside [0,1], thanks to Suharto Anggono's PR#17891.
Further, quantile(x, prN, names=FALSE) now works even when prN
contains NAs, thanks to Anggono's PR#17892. Ditto for ordered
factors or Date objects when type = 1 or 3, thanks to PR#17899.
* Libcurl-based internet access, including curlGetHeaders(), was
not respecting the "timeout" option. If this causes
unanticipated timeouts, consider increasing the default by
setting R_DEFAULT_INTERNET_TIMEOUT.
* as.Date(<char>) now also works with an initial "", thanks to
Michael Chirico's PR#17909.
* isS3stdGeneric(f) now detects an S3 generic also when it it is
trace()d, thanks to Gabe Becker's PR#17917.
* R_allocLD() has been fixed to return memory aligned for long
double type PR#16534.
* fisher.test() no longer segfaults when called again after its
internal stack has been exceeded PR#17904.
* Accessing a long vector represented by a compact integer sequence
no longer segfaults (reported and debugged by Hugh Parsonage).
* duplicated() now works also for strings with multiple encodings
inside a single vector PR#17809.
* phyper(11, 15, 0, 12, log.p=TRUE) no longer gives NaN; reported
as PR#17271 by Alexey Stukalov.
* Fix incorrect calculation in logLik.nls() PR#16100, patch from
Sebastian Meyer.
* A very old bug could cause a segfault in model.matrix() when
terms involved logical variables. Part of PR#17879.
* model.frame.default() allowed data = 1, leading to involuntary
variable capture (rest of PR#17879).
* tar() no longer skips non-directory files, thanks to a patch by
Sebastian Meyer, fixing the remaining part of PR#16716.
A Spotify client using Qt as a simpler, lighter alternative to the official
client, inspired by spotify-tui.
Much like spotify-tui, you need an actual Spotify client running, which can be
configured from within the app.
Also like other clients, controlling music playback requires Spotify Premium.
Open source client library for Spotify. It enables applications to use Spotify's
service to contol and play music via various backends, and to act as a Spotify
Connect receiver.
It is an alternative to the official and deprecated closed-source libspotify.
Additionally, it will provide extra features which are not available in the
official library.
Note: librespot only works with Spotify Premium. This will remain the case for
the foreseeable future, as we are unlikely to work on implementing the features
such as limited skips and adverts that would be required to make librespot
compliant with free accounts.
Changelog:
* Allow customizing mangling of generic parameters in C (#575)
* Box<T> simplifies to T* in C (4ce324c)
* ManuallyDrop<T> and MaubeUninit<T> simplify to T in C, and are opaque in C++ (0076a17)
* C++ supports a derive-ostream annotation to derive serialization of structs, unions and enums (#582)
* Large character constants have been fixed on Windows (#586)
* Constants are now generated for typedefs, etc (#589)
* The `sort_by` configuration option has been made to work for constants (#587)
* Default sort order is source order now (sort_by = "None"), and can be changed by the above option (#587)
YeahWM is a h* window manager for X based on evilwm and aewm.

its functionality.
I consider qvwm essential software for fun.
-
qvwm is a window manager for the X Window System which provides a user
experience very close to Windows 95/98. It is small and extremely fast.
Version 0.15
This is the last release before v1.0. In this release, we added more RFCs
implementations and did some refactors for JOSE:
RFC8037: CFRG Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) and Signatures in JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE)
RFC7638: JSON Web Key (JWK) Thumbprint
We also fixed bugs for integrations:
Fixed support for HTTPX>=0.14.3
Added OAuth clients of HTTPX back
Fixed parallel token refreshes for HTTPX async OAuth 2 client
Raise OAuthError when callback contains errors
Breaking Change:
The parameter algorithms in JsonWebSignature and JsonWebEncryption
are changed. Usually you don't have to care about it since you won't use it directly.
Whole JSON Web Key is refactored, please check JSON Web Key (JWK)
3.3.0:
* sync_to_async now defaults to thread-sensitive mode being on
* async_to_sync now works inside of forked processes
* WsgiToAsgi now correctly clamps its response body when Content-Length is set
This release contains no new language features, though it does add one
long-awaited standard library feature. It is mostly quality of life
improvements, library stabilizations and const-ifications, and toolchain
improvements.

pkgsrc changes:
---------------
* Remove the pkgconfig file generation since the version of libusb1 cannot
be obtained by parsing LIBUSB_API_VERSION from libusb.h (e.g. FreeBSD
provides 0x01000102 for 1.0.13 and Arch provides 0x01000107 for 1.0.23).
* At least FreeBSD, Debian and Arch provides a libusb-1.0.pc file for
their native implementation. Link this file to ${BUILDLINK_DIR}.
* Add logic in mk/buildlink3 to find pkgconfig files in common pkgconfig
directories (for at least FreeBSD, Debian and Arch).
These no longer support being executed via a symlink, failing with errors
such as:
xcode-select: Failed to locate 'gmake', and no install could be requested
This breaks the entire .tools/bin directory, so we just have to avoid them
and use tools from pkgsrc instead.
It's likely a lot more will need to be added to this list, but this is
enough to get devel/cmake building at least.
This is required for find-libs.mk to continue detecting the presence of
libraries supported by the system. It's definitely not ideal, and only
still works because Apple happens to ship .tdb files for each library, and
these are found via the current "lib${_lib_}.*" glob.
Patch taken from sjmulder@, I only limited it to Big Sur for now in case
there are issues using the SDK directory on older releases.
