Release 1.12.6 (2012-10-22 Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>)
===================================================================
Thanks to everyone who download cairo-1.12.4 and gave us their feedback.
It truly was invaluable and has helped us to fix many portability issues
that crept in with some of the new features. This release aims to fix
those stability issues and run on a wider range of systems.
Bug fixes
---------
Fix the recording surface to actually snapshot the source and so fix
PDF drawing.
Calling XSendEvent with an XShmCompletionEvent is incompatabile with
older Xorg servers.
Reorder CloseDisplay chain so that XShm is not reinstantiated after
shutdown, causing a potential crash if the Display was immediately
recreated using the same memory address.
Make sure that the Xserver has attached to the SHM segment before
deleting it from the global namespace on systems that do not support
deferred deletion.
Type1 subsetting support for PDF (and PS) was once again improved to
work with a larger number of PDF readers.
GLESv2 build fixes and improved support for embedded GPUs.
Tweak the invisible pen detection for applications that are currently
using too large values for geometric tolerance.
A build fix for older freetype libraries.
Upstream changes:

ExtUtils::CppGuess attempts to guess the system's C++ compiler that
is compatible with the C compiler that your perl was built with.
It can generate the necessary options to the Module::Build constructor
or to ExtUtils::MakeMaker's WriteMakefile function.
Noteworthy changes in version `1.2.18'
======================================
* Code cleanup, removal of warnings when building with clang.
* Removal of use of call to objc_poseAs(..) which was preventing
building with newer runtimes.
* Stability improvements.
Noteworthy changes in version `1.2.16'
======================================
* XIB reading.
* Bug fixes for standalone views.
* Stability changes.
Notable changes include:
Since 0.4.8:
============
o relative link during framework installing, helps building in a separate
root, like when building RPMs
o fixed some portability issues of the Framework to solaris and windows
o handle also PNG images
o fixed a link in the framework from absolute to relative, for FHS
(fix by Richard Stonehouse)
o Many fixes in VCFviewer GWorkspace inspector, thanks also to
Philippe Roussel
o use GSMimeDocument to decode base64 instead of custom code
o Makefiles work on windows
o Birthday support (for SimpleAgenda)
o fixes in VCF import (encoding, CR-LF)
o fixed deleting of a person
Since 0.4.7:
============
o Updated Makefiles to GNUstep Make 2.0
o Fixed text editing to work with current GNUstep gui
o Improved import of VCF files: tries to interpret HEX (by Guenther
Noack) and the escape \, from Apple cards
Noteworthy changes in version `0.22.0'
======================================
Added new user defaults to make app icons and mini windows sticky
(omnipresent)
Many improvements to Cairo rendering, including buffering, glyphs and
DPI scaling.
Noteworthy changes in version `0.20.0'
======================================
Cairo is now the default backend, but falls back to art and xlib
gracefully.
Fixed drawing and flipping (goes along with gui change).
More Windows improvements.
Noteworthy changes in version `0.22.0'
======================================
* This version is binary incompatible with previous versions due to
the change of NSNotFound in GNUstep base.
* Support for drawing the GUI with a scale factor, for high-DPI
monitors.
* Character panel
* Color picker "Magnifier" tool, for grabbing the color of arbitrary
parts of the screen
Many NSImage improvements (Mac OS X 10.6 drawing methods, better
selection of image reps, better support for icons). Many bugfixes,
including in Xib loading, printing, and NSView geometry.
Noteworthy changes in version `0.20.0'
======================================
A new stable release. Many improvments with Nib loading, documents and
document controllers. Fixed many drawing issues, particularly ones
related to flipping. Much improved theming.
Noteworthy changes in version `1.24.0'
======================================
* There is binary incompatibility on 64bit systems in that the value
of the NSNotFound constant there is now 64bits rather than 32bits.
* gcc-4.0 is the minimum official supported compiler for GNUstep
* Support for the GNU LANGUAGES environment variable and other locale
improvements
* IPV6 support for NSHost and networking operations
* Support for UTF-8 string literals in source (compiler permitting)
Noteworthy changes in version `1.23.0'
======================================
* Support for automatic reference counting (ARC) when using clasng
and the GNUstep Objective-C 2.0 runtime 1.5 or later.
* Full support for weak references in NSHashTable, NSMapTable and
NSPointerArray when using clang and the GNUstep Objective-C 2.0
runtime 1.5 or later.
Noteworthy changes in version `1.22.0'
======================================
* Many updates and new classes
* There is now a regression test framework included with the package
* New support for Objective-C 2.0
Changes are too numerous to list here, but essentially this switches
gnustep-objc to libobjc2-1.6.1 in order to provide a modern runtime
and support modern Objective-C 2.0 features such as ARC, class extensions,
the nonfragile ABI, etc.
GNUstep now defaults to the modern, non-fragile ABI unless the fragile
option is set.
Upstream Changes in version `2.6.2'
===================================
Added standalone filesystem layout for putting everything in one
directory for easy deployment of relocatable. Other bug fixes.
Upstream Changes in version `2.6.1'
===================================
Bug fix release. Most notably to fix a problem compiling GNUstep with
clang.
Upstream Changes in version `2.6.0'
===================================
* The default filesystem layout is now the 'fhs' layout
* The default location of the configuration file changed when not
installing system-wide
* Removed the -with-system-root, -with-local-root and
-with-network-root options
* Removed obsolete variables (deprecated 4 years ago).
* A new test framework is included in the pacakge
* objc.make deprecated. Use tool.make instead
* -enable-absolute-install-paths is now the default on Darwin
