In addition to the usual bug fixes, there are specific performance and
quality improvements in the areas of patterns, shading and image
filtering. Also new in this release is an implementation of the Well
Tempered Screening algorithm in an output device, using Graeme
Gill's IMDI library for efficient color mapping.
pkgsrc change: use the bundled jasper as the pkgsrc one is incompatible
Major changes:
- New class option compsoc to support the IEEE Computer Society format.
- New class option captionsoff disables the display of figure/table
captions. endfloat.sty is now mentioned in the docs. Thanks to Geoff
Walker for suggesting these changes.
- Bug fixes and new interfaces.
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% GV 3.6.3 (June 2007) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
# gv is now able to work with latest ghostscript: gs 8.57
# The bug causing the version not to figure in the manual has been
fixed.
# The SIGINT signal is now masked (ignored) by gv.
# gv no more segfaults when reading a configuration file as produced by
State -> Setup Options -> Save
# gv should compile in non-GNU system that doesnt have glib2. The
`getopt' gnulib module has been imported to fix this.
# gv now correctly adjust the page index window after PAGE-UP and
PAGE-DOWN events.
# gv is now able to open files with minus character beginning
filenames.
# X resources related bugs has been fixed. gv is now able to get
resources from the display database, user file, gv system database
and command line doing the Right Thing (TM).
# gv is now able to correctly understand DocumentMedia and other DSC
directives that uses postscript strings. It was not possible with
previous versions due to a bug in the postscript names scanning
routine.
* Vulnerability CVE-2006-5864 has been fixed.
* gs is now invoked with `-dFIXEDMEDIA'
* The internal gettext implementation has been renamed to `ps_gettext'
to avoid collisions with the builtin `gettext' function.
* --quiet and --noquiet now works as expected.
? There are troubles with 64 bits machines: the use of x-pointers to
store data should be eliminated in subsequent versions.
- Added support for per-document DVIPS_FLAGS and DVIPDFM_FLAGS.
- Avoided the use of hardcoded csh in some scripts.

didn't do anything.
- Added METAPOST support.
- Fixed a bug when using BibTeX and PDFLaTeX at the same time.
- Added glossary support.
- Fixed a bug with GNU make draft output.
- Put the actual installation prefix into the manual.
- Avoid a case which caused the testsuite to hang.

Changes since 20050831:
- Xref and object stream were implemented for PDF v1.5 or higher to reduce the
size of the PDF output.
- New program "xbb" is included, which generates ".xbb" file containing the
bounding box information. For bitmap images, DVIPDFMx generates the same
result as pdfTeX if ".xbb" is used, and as DVIPDFM if ".bb" is used.
- Many bug fixes.
CUPS 1.2.11 fixes several build system, printing, PPD, and IPP conformance

Algorithm2e is an environment for writing algorithms in LaTeX2e.
An algorithm is defined as a floating object like figures. It
provides macros that allow you to create different sorts of key
words, thus a set of predefined key words is given. You can
also change the typography of the keywords.
Ruby-GNOME 2 is a set of Ruby language bindings for the various
application development libraries included with the GNOME/GTK+
environment.
Ruby/Poppler is a Ruby binding of poppler-glib.
Ruby-GNOME 2 is a set of Ruby language bindings for the various
application development libraries included with the GNOME/GTK+
environment.
Ruby/GnomePrint is a Ruby binding of libgnomeprint.
The glossaries package supports acronyms and multiple glossaries.
New entries are defined to have a name and description (and optionally
an associated symbol). Plural forms can also be specified. New
glossary styles can be defined, and preambles and postambles can be
specified. There is provision for loading a database of terms: only
terms used in the text will be added to the relevant glossary.
This package is an extension of the keyval package and offers additional
macros for setting keys and declaring and setting class or package options.
The package allows the programmer to specify a prefix to the name of the
macros it defines for keys, and to define families of key definitions;
these all help use in documents where several packages define their own
sets of keys.
New features:
* Support for printer's instances.
* Support for stdint (i.e, '-') as filename from command line.
Interface improvements:
* About box's link is now clickable (#45).
* "Open" and "Save As" dialogs now use extension patterns in
addition to mime types filters (#50).
* Full screen support.
* "Save As" dialog sets the current file's name as the default
save name.
Bug fixes:
* Prevent showing the menu entry twice.
* Fixed typo that check for Poppler version 0.5.2 or higher in
order to show the index).
* The cache is emptied between file loads, so the previous
file's page are displayed.
* Changed the "Save As" dialog's button from "Open" to "Save".
* Prevent crashes in FreeBSD when searching in a document.
* Fixed some bugs rendering pages under some systems.
* Fixed problems printing documents under some systems, specially
64-bit systems.
It skips the check for the math library on Darwin because the math
functions are included in the system library. It however later aborts
because it didn't find a math library.
Work arround this by not skipping the math library check on Darwin.
The "configure" scripts now finds "/usr/lib/libm.dylib" which is
a symlink to the system library.
This is based on a suggestion by Yorick Hardy, who reports that it
improved behavior. Without the patch, the cups usb driver tries to
read status from ulpt(4) (for most printers), and this results in no
output.
pkgsrc changes: fix locale path

Marc Branchaud <marcnarc@xcert.com>
- From Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>: define showheet using
the load operator instead of the bind operator. This might solve
situations where showpage is redefined elsewhere.

prprog variable.
- Removed useless strcpy when processing command line args
(could even give unpredictable results)
from: dlarson@brookings.net

flpsed is a WYSIWYG PostScript2 annotator. You can't remove or modify
existing elements of a document, but flpsed lets you add arbitrary
text lines to existing PostScript 2 documents. Added lines can later
be re-edited with flpsed. Using pdftops, which is part of xpdf one can
convert PDF documents to PostScript and also add text to them. flpsed
is useful for filling in forms, adding notes etc. GsWidget is now
part of flpsed. flpsed is released under the GPL.
Features:
* Add arbitrary text to existing PostScript documents.
* Reedit text, that has been added with flpsed.
* The overall structure of the PostScript document is not
modified. flpsed only adds the additional text.
* Batch processing (no X11 required) to modify tagged text lines
that have been entered interactively with flpsed before. This
is very useful for repeatedly filling in forms.
* Text lines can be imported from other flpsed-modified documents.
* Import and export PDF. Therefore it can be used as a PDF editor as well.
A new bug fix release of Xfce 4.2 is available. This release is supposed to
be the last release for the 4.2 branch. It includes several fixes ported from
the current developpment branch. This release should not be confused with the
upcoming Xfce 4.4 release [1], it's a bug fix release of the previous stable
branch.
[1] Xfce 4.4.0 is already in pkgsrc-wip.
