PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
0. Bug fixes include:
* slrnpull's download statistics should work correctly in offline mode.
* slrn crashed on some operating systems when posting.
* slrn crashed when trying to decode base64 encoded articles without body.
* Don't destroy soft links / multiple hard links when writing newsrc file.
* Always apply scoring rules in the order given in the scorefile.
* When reading cross-posts, slrn sometimes marked additional articles in
the other group(s) as read (Joerg Lueders).
* slrnpull no longer posts backup copies (*~) of files you edited manually
in the out.going directory.
* slrnpull tries to write .headers files on interrupts.
* The "Has-Body" scoring field sometimes did not work correctly.
* When retrieving article children, headers without body were not marked.
* Ignore signature delimiters in verbatim text blocks.
* Do not choke on long header lines when replying by email.
* A workaround for a bug in INN caused problems with leafnode; only use it
when the server was recognized as INN from the logon message.
* Fixed crash when running in wide terminals (John E. Davis)
* Email address parser is more RFC2822 compliant
1. In the config file (and the corresponding intrinsic functions), the
following names now denote special function keys: <PageUp> <PageDown>
<Up> <Down> <Right> <Left> <Delete> <BackSpace> <Insert> <Home> <End>
<Enter> <Return> <Tab> <Space> <Esc> and <F1> through <F12>
If using these names does not seem to work for you, please make sure your
terminfo settings are correct.
2. In true offline mode, slrnpull can now automatically retrieve bodies of
articles that get a high score value (--fetch-score option).
3. Added Swedish translation (Johan Svedberg)
4. Make hide_pgpsignature hide GnuPGs optional "NotDashEscaped" lines.
slrn does _not_ need libiconv (thanks wiz) despite what it says during
configure stage. If package gettext-lib is not installed, slrn builds
just fine without libiconv. A fix for this is supposed to be provided
in the near future.
indirectly by gettext-lib (if USE_GNU_GETTEXT was defined elsewhere).
Why this did not show up in the bulk builds I do not know.
Thanks go to Michael van Elst for help in tracking this down.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)

Changes since slrn 0.9.7.4:
-1. Changes when building on Un*x: [...]
0. Bug fixes include: [...]
1. Changes to the user interface: [...]
2. When used in combination with slrnpull, slrn now supports "true offline
reading". [...]
3. slrnpull no longer completely rewrites the overview files when expiring
articles. [...]
4. If your terminal supports it (and you are not using Win32 or OS/2), you
can now use colors and attributes at the same time. [...]
5. Set use_recommended_msg_id to 1 in your config file if you want slrn to
make use of server-proposed Message-IDs. [...]
6. Added intrinsic functions [...]
7. Custom sorting now allows you to use different criteria for sorting
initial articles of threads and articles inside threads. [...]
9. When reading in spool mode with spool_check_up_on_nov set, slrn now finds
out the number of bytes of each article, even if it is not included in
the news overview file (based on a patch by Jurriaan W Kalkman).
10. Support Cancel-Locks using the canlock library (--with-canlock) that can
be obtained from <http://cssri.meowing.net/> [...]
11. Support GNU TLS via its new OpenSSL compatibility layer (--with-gnutls).
[...]
12. New command-line option "-w0" that waits on startup, but only if a
warning or error is displayed.
13. Updated cleanscore, see contrib/NEWS.cleanscore (Felix Schueller)
14. Verbatim text can be hidden using toggle_verbatim_text (default binding
'{') or hide_verbatim_text in the config file. (Arek Sochala)
15. The "BEGIN PGP SIGNED ARTICLE" line is displayed using the "pgpsignature"
color and stripped on followups. (Emmanuele Bassi)
16. If query_read_group_cutoff is set to -n, slrn will automatically
(without prompting) download n articles when more than n are present.
17. Support Turkish characters on Win32 - set charset to "ibm857" for this.
With help from A. Alper ATICI
18. Re-structured the manual and added a chapter about slang's
pre-processing facilities. (Matthias Friedrich)
19. The config variable cc_followup_string is obsolete [...]
20. New translations: [be, fi, tr]
21. Remove duplicates when browsing URLs (Ruediger Sonderfeld)
22. IPv6 support (requires getaddrinfo; patch by J.H.M. Dassen (Ray))
23. A new, updated and more comprehensive FAQ (doc/FAQ) - it replaces the
files FAQ, SCORE_FAQ and slrnpull/FAQ (written by Matthias Friedrich and
me, based on John E. Davis' original files).
o Bugfixes were published on the slrn website since the release
of 0.9.7.4 last year. Even though no new version was released,
they are quite needed for normal operation (specifically, I was
hit by a locale bug that makes slrn segfault when scoring).
o ${PKGLOCALEDIR} needs to be enforced both in package's Makefile
and PLIT, and in the source (po Makefile has a hard-coded path
that may not match the path used in other parts of the source
tree).
Bug fixes include:
* Removed code that unpacks "shell archives" as it causes a serious
security hole.
* Even when using read_active, slrn would enter all subscribed groups.
* force_authentication was ignored when re-connecting.
* In rare cases, the need to send authentication data was not recognized.
* Interpret "news:" URLs enclosed in angle brackets correctly.
* Scorefiles get "include"d only once (no more loops).
* Unsubscribed groups are no longer moved to the bottom of the newsrc file.
* Multiple '%s' in (non_)Xbrowser are handled correctly (fixes segfault).
Minor UI changes:
* Tagging ('*') an article marks it as unread.
* The new default of 'reject_long_lines' is 2.
* When confirm_actions is set, catching up a group requires confirmation.
* Complain if user specifies a nonexistant config file on the command line.
* Made new_subject_breaks_threads a bitmapped value (see manual for details)
On Unix, gettext is used to translate messages.
Currently, the following translations are available:
- da.po (Danish; Byrial Jensen)
- de.po (German; Jens Wahnes)
- it.po (Italian; Emmanuele Bassi)
- nl.po (Dutch; Jelmer Vernooij)
- pl.po (Polish; Jarek Baczynski / Arkadiusz Sochala)
- ru.po (Russian; Andy Shevchenko)
The new function "view_scores" (bound to 'v' in article mode) shows you
which scorefile entries matched the current article. Assigning names to
your entries (see score.txt for details) will make this even more useful.
The new intrinsic functions "register_hook" and "unregister_hook" allow
the definition of multiple functions for most hooks.
An autosave copy of the newsrc file is created whenever you leave a
group. This can be turned off with no_autosave.
Scoring on "Bytes:" (by integer value, not regexp) is possible. In
header_display_format, you can use '%b' to display the number of bytes.
This is available when reading overview data only (e.g. _not_ in slrnpull)!
In *_display_format and *_status_line, the additional modifier '*' can be
used to center justify text in a field of a given width.
slrn accepts 8bit characters in newsgroup names.
Updated cleanscore, see contrib/NEWS.cleanscore
The code that allows running slrnpull as an unpriviledged user can now
be turned on by passing --enable-setgid-code to configure. It no longer
makes outgoing postings group writeable.
The bottom line now has its own color object ("message").
New intrinsic functions get_fg_color and get_bg_color that return the
current color of an object.
In the readline keymap, the new functions "delbol" (^U) and "delbow"
(^W) will delete to the beginning of the line or the word, respectively.
In selection lists (e.g. used by color.sl), pressing a letter takes you to
the next (or previous, if shift was held down) entry that starts with it.
ew descriptors in header_status_line: %h, %l and %k now stand for the
number of high / low scoring / killed articles, respectively.
New intrinsic functions read_mini_variable (tab completes variable
names) and read_mini_integer. See macros/varset.sl for an example
(easy interactive setting of variables at runtime).
pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get
bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME.
Example #1:
DISTNAME= foo-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ
Example #2:
DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y
PKGNAME= bar-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!)
On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk
of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.
Besides a number of bugfixes, better support for non-Unix
systems and a bit of new documentation, it starts up faster
on some systems and has minor new features, like tab completion
or detection of ``news:'' URLs. It is also more RFC compliant
than ever.
It has a fully customizable group mode and status bars,
highlights URLs, makes use of some common NNTP extensions,
offers better documentation and has lots of minor improvements
and bugfixes over the previous version.
slrn looks for libslang in /usr/pkg by default, and doesn't know about
looking in other locations. Use $PREFIX instead of /usr/pkg now.
Found while compiling this on Solaris (w/o Zoularis, of course :)
maintainer: "Besides adding exciting new features, it also fixes a
lot of annoying and some (potentially) security relevant bugs, so I
recommend the upgrade."
