Version 4.1.1 (2020.9.28)
-------------------------
* Some minor bugs in Micro QR Code generation have been fixed.
* The data capacity calculations are now correct. These bugs probably did not
affect the Micro QR Code generation.
Version 4.1.0 (2020.8.29)
-------------------------
* Command line tool "qrencode" has been improved:
* New option "--inline" has been added. (Thanks to @jp-bennett)
* New option "--strict-version" has been added.
* UTF8 mode now supports ANSI256 color. (Thanks to András Veres-
Szentkirályi)
* Micro QR Code no longer requires to specify the version number.
* 'make check' allows to run the test programs. (Thanks to Jan Tojnar)
* Some compile time warnings have been fixed.
* Various CMake support improvements. (Thanks to @mgorny and @sdf5)
* Some minor bug fixes. (Thanks to Lonnie Abelbeck and Frédéric Wang)
* Some documentation/manpage improvements. (Thanks to Dan Jacobson)
* Some performance improvements. (Thanks to @4061N and Mika Lindqvist)
Release Note:
The internal representation of the output code has been slightly changed -
the second bit from LSB side now represents; 1:ECC bit / 0:data bit.
This change is only for debug purposes and does not affect user applications.
Version 4.0.2 (2018.6.6)
------------------------
* Build script fixes. (Thanks to @mgorny)
Version 4.0.1 (2018.6.4)
------------------------
* CMake support improved.
* New test scripts have been added.
* Some compile time warnings have been fixed.
Version 4.0.0 (2017.9.21)
-------------------------
* Memory efficiency has been improved.
* QRcode_clearCache() has been deprecated.
* Error correction code generating functions have been improved.
* Command line tool "qrencode" has been improved:
* XPM support. (Thanks to Tobias Klauser)
* PNG32 (direct color mode) support. (Thanks to Greg Hart)
* EPS output now supports foreground and background color.
* New options "-r" and "--svg-path" have been added.
(Thanks to Robert Petersen and @Oblomov)
* CMake support has been added. (optional) (Thanks to @misery)
* Various bug fixes.
* Various performance improvements.
Release Note:
While the API has not been changed since the previous major release, we
incremented the major version number of libqrencode to 4 because the
implementation of the library has been largely changed.
This release improves the performance and memory footprints of code generation.
Now you can build libqrencode with CMake.
If you build the test programs, please note that the required SDL version has
been changed from 1.2 to 2.0.
The actual fix as been done by "pkglint -F */*/buildlink3.mk", and was
reviewed manually.
There are some .include lines that still are indented with zero spaces
although the surrounding .if is indented. This is existing practice.
Problems found with existing distfile:
distfiles/libiconv-1.13-cp932.patch.gz
No changes made to the libiconv distinfo file.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.

Version 3.4.2 (2013.3.1)
------------------------
* Bug fix release. (Thanks to chisj, vlad417, Petr and Viona)
Release Note:
Micro QR Code encoder had a bug that caused incorrect output (issue #25). Now
the bug has been fixed. Memory leak bug (#24) and insufficient string splitting
bug have been fixed.
* Update HOMEPAGE
Changelog:
3.4.1 (2012.10.17)
A bug that mutual exclusion was not performed has been fixed.
3.4.0 (2012.10.15)
SVG, UTF8, and ANSIUTF8 output supports have been added to the command line tool. (Thanks to Dan Storm, David Dahl, and Lennart Poettering)
Colored QR Code support.
Bug fixes. (Thanks to Terry Burton, Fred Steinhaeuser, and Yann Droneaud)
3.3.1 (2012.4.18)
Bugs in command line tool, manual, configure script, and libtool files have been fixed. (Thanks to Yutaka Niibe and Rob Ryan)
3.3.0 (2012.4.1)
EPS, ANSI, and ASCII text output supports have been added. (Thanks to Zapster, Colin, and Ral)
QRcode_APIVersion() and QRcode_APIVersionString() have been added.
3.2.1 (2012.4.1)
Bugs in configure script and libtool file has been fixed. (Thanks to Yutaka Niibe)
* Remove obsolete patches.
Changelog:
Version 3.2.0 (2011.11.26)
------------------------
* "--dpi" (or "-d") option has been added to qrencode. This option set DPI
information in an output PNG image. (Thanks to David Dahl)
* New option "--enable-thread-safety" has been added to the configure script
that makes the library thread-safe. It is enabled by default.
* QRcode_encodeData(), QRcode_encodeDataMQR, QRcode_encodeDataStructured() have
been added for binary data encoding including '\0'.
* Typo and bug fixes.
* Experimental Micro QR Code support has been added.
* "--micro" (or "-M") option for Micro QR Code has been added to qrencode.
(experimental)
Release Note:
Binary data including '\0' is now supported. To encode a binary data, give "-8"
option to qrencode, and let qrencode obtain data via standard input like
"qrencode -8 -o output.png < binary". "--dpi" and "-d" are also added to embed
DPI information to PNG file.
A bug in the mask pattern evaluation routine has been fixed. In some cases,
libqrencode may generate a different symbol from the one that was generated by
the prior libqrencode because of this bug fix, but the embedded data are not
affected. The symbols generated by the old libqrencode are valid.
Experimental support of Micro QR Code encoder has been added. Some functions
(QRcode_*MQR()) have been added to the library. The command line tool generates
Micro QR Code when "--micro" or "-M" is given.
* Update MASTER_SITES and HOMEPAGE.
* set LICENSE
* Fix pg-config --cflags output
Changelog:
3.1.1 (2010.2.3)
A bug in data encoder has been fixed.
3.1.0 (2009.6.6)
Various code cleanups and performance improves.
Strict internal error checks have been added.
"--without-tests" has become default setting. Specify "--with-tests" to compile test programs.
Some memory leak bugs have been fixed.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
Libqrencode is a C library for encoding data in a QR Code symbol, a kind of
2D symbology that can be scanned by handy terminals such as a mobile phone
with CCD. The capacity of QR Code is up to 7000 digits or 4000 characters,
and is highly robust.
This package installs a library and a command line tool.
Package from Alaric Snell-Pym, with some improvements by me.
