Also, don't depend on python unless the python option is turned
on, and make the lua bindings behave themselves on netbsd where
there's a copy of lua in base.
Note that the ruby bindings are built in a separate package
(databases/ruby-rrdtool) ...probably the python bindings should be as
well. Also note that there's another apparently different set of
python bindings in databases/py-python-rrdtool. I have no idea which
is preferred.

* updated windows port (see WIN32-BUILD-TIPS.txt)
* single step RRAs for MIN,MAX,LAST are generated virtually from
an AVERAGE RRA
* ignore updates in the past with rrdtool update --skip-past-updates

support is integrated in the perl bindings.
* re-written parser for rrdtool graph commands. It now follows a simple key
value pattern, compatible with the previous syntax.
* MEDIAN op for CDEF expressions
* DEPTH,INDEX,COPY,ROL ops for CDEF (as seen in PostScript)
* gradient AREA backgrounds
* no more locale magic while reading numeric data.
Bugfixes
--------
all the bugs fixed in 1.4.x during 1.5 development
* rrd_graph now uses a map to lookup variable names causing graphs with many
items to be drawn magnitudes faster as the linear search of the variable
tables is gone now.
* the optional argument :skipscale allows for a LINE or AREA instruction to be
excluded from having an effect on the scaling of the graph
* TRENDNAN is now working properly and als not crashing anymore
* Added a no-op string positioning combo "\." this allows to write
COMMENT:OS\2\. which would otherwise not be possible.
* JSON output of xport is now actually json compilant by its keys
being properly quoted now.
* The label positioner in rrd_graph is now properly ignoring the current
state of DST.
* fixes and enhancements for Python, Ruby, TCL and Perl bindings
* improved error reporting in rrd_graph
* portability and cross compilation
Bugfixes:
* compile: multiple fixes isnan and isinf defines to make rrdtool compile
with gcc on solaris (with --disable-nls)
* handle gettext/libintl like any other feature, do not try to supply
our own ... rrdtool can work fine without it
* rrd_client: fix potential segfaults
* rrd_client: resolve synmlinks properly
* compile: fix libtool and libtoolize names for OSX compiles
* compile: fix for HAVE_BROKEN_MS_ASYNC (old linux kernels)
* rrd_xport: fix --daemon handling
* rrd_client: explicitly close connection on error
* rrd_update: fix memory leak for COMPUTE datasources
* rrd_daemon: fix segfault when specifying a relative path (-j option)
* compile: make rrdtool compile with gcc 4.5
* portability: use %lld (long long int) for time_t *printf
* compile: link pangocairo and not pango since we do use pangocairo actually
* compile: re-integrate intl into compile dependency so that hosts with
old (or no) gettext can get access to the included copy.
* rrd_cached: exit with status !=0 on invalid cli
Enhancements:
* updated build files and instructions for win32 port by Chris Larsen
* legal: Relicense the RRDCacheD client interface under the MIT license
* legal: Updted FLOSS Exception for latest PHP license
* rrd_cached: better help output
* detect short/truncated files on open (rrdtool used to crash later
on some platforms)
* stop rrd_resize from altering the original file (mmap side
effect)
* fix VDEF and SHIFT use. Now it returns correct data and does
not crash anymore.
* fix rrd_xport when used on datasources with different
resolutions. This has been broken from day 1 of this tools
exsitance.
* fixed default prefix for ruby install
* added rpath for perl bindings on bsd
* do not [fm]advise past the end of the file since this
causes crashes on sparc.
Local change warranting nb1 is to prefix some error messages from
rrdupdate with the name of the file the error relates to, carried
over from nb1 of 1.2.27.
Update loosely OKed by martti@
The announcement of 1.3.0 outlines the changes since 1.2.27:
NEW Fast file access methods (Bernhard Fischer / Tobi Oetiker)
----------------------------
* introduced file-accessor functions rrd_read/rrd_seek/rrd_write
* implemented full mmap-based file access with madvise hints for
improved scalability, much reduced memory-footprint and much less
blocking while accessing the disk
* implemented optional full file-descriptor access instead of FILE*
access
NEW Graphing (Tobi Oetiker)
------------
* libart has been replaced by cairo/pango
* pango markup is supported (--pango-markup)
* full grid fitting
* --graph-render-mode=mono for non anti aliased graphing
* --font-render-mode=mono for non anti aliased fonts
* fonts come through fontconfig, use the Pango font nameing scheme
-> 'Times 20' ... it is not possible to use truetype fonts
directly anymore.
* Tabs are position independent.
* TRENDNAN filter that ignores NAN values while calculating the
TREND data. (Timo Stripf)
* --full-size-mode to specify the outer border of the image and not
just of the graphing canvas (Matthew Chambers)
* TEXTALIGN command to alter default text alignment behavior
* C API in-memory graphing with rrd_graph_v (Evan Miller)
* draw dashed lines in graphs (Thomas Gutzler)
* new interface graphv which returns information using the rrd_info
interface (Tobi Oetiker and Mark Plaksin)
* improved horizontal grid. Have a bit more grid lines and y-axis
labels while keeping them far enough apart to not run into each
other.
NEW Forecasting (Evan Miller)
---------------
* the new MHWPREDICT consolidation function uses a variation of the
Holt-Winters method. It is a drop-in replacement for HWPREDICT,
and is better suited for data whose seasonal variations grow or
shrink in proportion to the average.
* If you create an RRD with the new MHWPREDICT function, the
resulting rrd file will be version 0004 and can only be used in
rrdtool 1.3.
Rewrites
--------
* rrd_restore now uses libxml for parsing which makes things much
more tolerant towards xml variations. The old code could mostly
just parse the XML as it was output by rrdtool dump. See also:
the note at the bottom of this document. (by Florian octo
Forster)
* rrd_update rewritten to make it more modular. Fixed two
longstanding HW bugs in the process (Evan Miller)
Internationalization (Takao Fujiwara and Tobi Oetiker)
--------------------
* The help output by rrdtool has been internationalized. There are
no real translations included with rrdtool yet, contributions are
welcome.
* The internationalization will only be compiled if libintl and
friends are available on your system. Use the configure option
--disable-libintl if you want to disable this feature
Language Bindings
-----------------
* ruby rrd_fetch will return step as a last property -- Mike Perham
RRDtool dump / restore incompatibility
--------------------------------------
* rrdtool dump 1.3 does emit completely legal XML. Basically this
means that it contains an XML header and a DOCTYPE definition.
Unfortunately this causes older versions of rrdtool restore to be
unhappy.
* To restore a new dump with an old rrdtool restore version, either
remove the XML header and the doctype by hand (both on the first
line of the dump) or use rrdtool dump --no-header.
The pwd command for server mode was added. Logarithmic graphs were revisited. GPRINT can now access the time component of VDEF values. DNAN and DINF are much faster through caching. Many bugs were killed.
Major Changes between 1.0.x and 1.2.x
Graphing
--------
* rewritten graphics generation based on libart.
- anti-aliased output
- alpha transparency support
- truetype fonts
* additional graphics formats: EPS, PDF, SVG
* extended multi-part documentation
* VDEF support; define and use variables. Find, and use, the
maximum rate seen by rrdtool; compute and show the average
* Sliding window (trend) analysis
Compute a smoother average, for instance over the last 6 CDPs
* percentile (95th or other)
Remove peaks, 95 percent of all rates are at or below the returned value
Logging
-------
* a second logging interface: rrdtool updatev
Verbose updating of the database; show CPDs being created
* Aberrant Behavior Detection with Holt-Winters Forecasting
Compare current data with expected data, detect and log when
the rates are outside expected levels
* COMPUTE data type for artificial data-sources calculating their
input using RPN math and data from the other data-sources.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
Packages changes: use buildlink2 and perl5/module.mk, documentation
splitted in $PREFIX/share/doc/{rrdtool,html/rrdtool}/*.
