xsltproc and Docbook packages do not enable this unexpectedly. Fixes
the build whenever manpages get enabled for some reason, as the PLIST
does not account for them.

0.17.1:
General Improvements and Bug Fixes
A reference leak was fixed in the new dict iteration code when
the loop target was not a plain variable but an unpacked tuple.
Memory views did not handle the special case of a NULL buffer
strides value, as allowed by PEP3118.
0.17:
Features
Alpha quality support for compiling and running Cython generated
extension modules in PyPy (through cpyext). Note that this
requires at leastPyPy 1.9 and in many cases also adaptations
in user code, especially to avoid borrowed references when no
owned reference is being held directly in C space (a reference
in a Python list or dict is not enough, for example). See the
documentation on porting Cython code to PyPy.
"yield from" is supported (PEP 380) and a couple of minor
problems with generators were fixed.
C++ STL container classes automatically coerce from and to the
equivalent Python container types on typed assignments and
casts. Usage examples are here. Note that the data in the
containers is copied during this conversion.
C++ iterators can now be iterated over using for x in cpp_container
whenever cpp_container has begin() and end() methods returning
objects satisfying the iterator pattern (that is, it can be
incremented, dereferenced, and compared (for non-equality)).
cdef classes can now have C++ class members (provided a
zero-argument constructor exists)
A new cpython.array standard cimport file allows to efficiently
talk to the stdlib array.array data type in Python 2. Since
CPython does not export an official C-API for this module, it
receives special casing by the compiler in order to avoid setup
overhead on user side. In Python 3, both buffers and memory
views on the array type already worked out of the box with
earlier versions of Cython due to the native support for the
buffer interface in the Py3 array module.
Fast dict iteration is now enabled optimistically also for
untyped variables when the common iteration methods are used.
The unicode string processing code was adapted for the upcoming
CPython 3.3 (PEP 393, new Unicode buffer layout).
Buffer arguments and memory view arguments in Python functions
can be declared "not None" to raise a TypeError on None input.
c(p)def functions in pure mode can specify their return type
with "@cython.returns()".
Automatic dispatch for fused functions with memoryview arguments
Support newaxis indexing for memoryviews
Support decorators for fused functions
General Improvements and Bug Fixes
Old-style Py2 imports did not work reliably in Python 3.x and
were broken in Python 3.3. Regardless of this fix, it's generally
best to be explicit about relative and global imports in Cython
code because old-style imports have a higher overhead. To this
end, "from __future__ import absolute_import" is supported in
Python/Cython 2.x code now (previous versions of Cython already
used it when compiling Python 3 code).
Stricter constraints on the inline and final modifiers. If your
code does not compile due to this change, chances are these
modifiers were previously being ignored by the compiler and
can be removed without any performance regression.
Exceptions are always instantiated while raising them (as in
Python), instead of risking to instantiate them in potentially
unsafe situations when they need to be handled or otherwise
processed.
locals() properly ignores names that do not have Python compatible
types (including automatically inferred types).
Some garbage collection issues of memory views were fixed.
User declared char* types are now recognised as such and
auto-coerce to and from Python bytes strings.
libc.string provides a convenience declaration for const uchar
in addition to const char.
Modules generated by @cython.inline() are written into the
directory pointed to by the environment variable CYTHON_CACHE_DIR
if set.
numpy.pxd compiles in Python 3 mode.
callable() and next() compile to more efficient C code.
list.append() is faster on average.
Several C compiler warnings were fixed.
Several bugs related to memoryviews and fused types were fixed.
Several bug-fixes and improvements related to cythonize(),
including ccache-style caching.
virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments.
The basic problem being addressed is one of dependencies and
versions, and indirectly permissions. Imagine you have an application
that needs version 1 of LibFoo, but another application requires
version 2. How can you use both these applications? If you install
everything into /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages (or whatever your
platform's standard location is), it's easy to end up in a situation
where you unintentionally upgrade an application that shouldn't be
upgraded.
Or more generally, what if you want to install an application and
leave it be? If an application works, any change in its libraries
or the versions of those libraries can break the application.
Also, what if you can't install packages into the global site-packages
directory? For instance, on a shared host.
In all these cases, virtualenv can help you. It creates an environment
that has its own installation directories, that doesn't share
libraries with other virtualenv environments (and optionally doesn't
access the globally installed libraries either).
Magit is an interface to the version control system Git, implemented as
an extension to Emacs. Magit supports GNU Emacs version 22 or later.
With Magit, you can inspect and modify your Git repositories with Emacs.
You can review and commit the changes you have made to the tracked
files, for example, and you can browse the history of past changes.
There is support for cherry picking, reverting, merging, rebasing, and
other common Git operations.
Magit is not a complete interface to Git; it just aims to make the most
common Git operations convenient. Thus, Magit will likely not save you
from learning Git itself.
- patch-ar and patch-as to avoid dependending on python are no longer
necessary since the introduction of --disable-modular-tests
- patch-co has been committed to glib in 2360d04e
- other patches cargo culted across
- statfs test was fixed in glib with commit afa82ae8
- no longer provide man pages as that requires docbook & xsltproc
Many changes in glib since 2.32.4, especially GDBus improvements.
See NEWS file http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/plain/NEWS?id=2.34.0 for details.
---------------------
* When "git am" is fed an input that has multiple "Content-type: ..."
header, it did not grok charset= attribute correctly.
* Even during a conflicted merge, "git blame $path" always meant to
blame uncommitted changes to the "working tree" version; make it
more useful by showing cleanly merged parts as coming from the other
branch that is being merged.
* "git blame MAKEFILE" run in a history that has "Makefile" but not
"MAKEFILE" should say "No such file MAKEFILE in HEAD", but got
confused on a case insensitive filesystem and failed to do so.
* "git fetch --all", when passed "--no-tags", did not honor the
"--no-tags" option while fetching from individual remotes (the same
issue existed with "--tags", but combination "--all --tags" makes
much less sense than "--all --no-tags").
* "git log/diff/format-patch --stat" showed the "N line(s) added"
comment in user's locale and caused careless submitters to send
patches with such a line in them to projects whose project language
is not their language, mildly irritating others. Localization to
the line has been disabled for now.
* "git log --all-match --grep=A --grep=B" ought to show commits that
mention both A and B, but when these three options are used with
--author or --committer, it showed commits that mention either A or
B (or both) instead.
* The subcommand to remove the definition of a remote in "git remote"
was named "rm" even though all other subcommands were spelled out.
Introduce "git remote remove" to remove confusion, and keep "rm" as
a backward compatible synonym.
Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
The Transifex Command-line Client is a command line tool that enables
you to easily manage your translations within a project without the need
of an elaborate UI system.
You can use the command line client to easily create new resources, map
locale files to translations and synchronize your Transifex project with
your local repository and vice verca. Translators and localization
managers can also use it to handle large volumes of translation files
easily and without much hassle.

Release 3.8.1 (19 September 2012)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.8.1 is a bug fix release. It fixes some assertion failures in 3.8.0
that occur moderately frequently in real use cases, adds support for
some missing instructions on ARM, and fixes a deadlock condition on
MacOSX. If you package or deliver 3.8.0 for others to use, you might
want to consider upgrading to 3.8.1 instead.
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.

Release 3.8.0 (10 August 2012)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.8.0 is a feature release with many improvements and the usual
collection of bug fixes.
This release supports X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM/Linux, PPC32/Linux,
PPC64/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS/Linux, ARM/Android, X86/Android,
X86/MacOSX 10.6/10.7 and AMD64/MacOSX 10.6/10.7. Support for recent
distros and toolchain components (glibc 2.16, gcc 4.7) has been added.
There is initial support for MacOSX 10.8, but it is not usable for
serious work at present.
* ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
* Support for MIPS32 platforms running Linux. Valgrind has been
tested on MIPS32 and MIPS32r2 platforms running different Debian
Squeeze and MeeGo distributions. Both little-endian and big-endian
cores are supported. The tools Memcheck, Massif and Lackey have
been tested and are known to work. See README.mips for more details.
* Preliminary support for Android running on x86.
* Preliminary (as-yet largely unusable) support for MacOSX 10.8.
* Support for Intel AVX instructions and for AES instructions. This
support is available only for 64 bit code.
* Support for POWER Decimal Floating Point instructions.
* ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
* Non-libc malloc implementations are now supported. This is useful
for tools that replace malloc (Memcheck, Massif, DRD, Helgrind).
Using the new option --soname-synonyms, such tools can be informed
that the malloc implementation is either linked statically into the
executable, or is present in some other shared library different
from libc.so. This makes it possible to process statically linked
programs, and programs using other malloc libraries, for example
TCMalloc or JEMalloc.
* For tools that provide their own replacement for malloc et al, the
option --redzone-size=<number> allows users to specify the size of
the padding blocks (redzones) added before and after each client
allocated block. Smaller redzones decrease the memory needed by
Valgrind. Bigger redzones increase the chance to detect blocks
overrun or underrun. Prior to this change, the redzone size was
hardwired to 16 bytes in Memcheck.
* Memcheck:
- The leak_check GDB server monitor command now can
control the maximum nr of loss records to output.
- Reduction of memory use for applications allocating
many blocks and/or having many partially defined bytes.
- Addition of GDB server monitor command 'block_list' that lists
the addresses/sizes of the blocks of a leak search loss record.
- Addition of GDB server monitor command 'who_points_at' that lists
the locations pointing at a block.
- If a redzone size > 0 is given, VALGRIND_MALLOCLIKE_BLOCK now will
detect an invalid access of these redzones, by marking them
noaccess. Similarly, if a redzone size is given for a memory
pool, VALGRIND_MEMPOOL_ALLOC will mark the redzones no access.
This still allows to find some bugs if the user has forgotten to
mark the pool superblock noaccess.
- Performance of memory leak check has been improved, especially in
cases where there are many leaked blocks and/or many suppression
rules used to suppress leak reports.
- Reduced noise (false positive) level on MacOSX 10.6/10.7, due to
more precise analysis, which is important for LLVM/Clang
generated code. This is at the cost of somewhat reduced
performance. Note there is no change to analysis precision or
costs on Linux targets.
* DRD:
- Added even more facilities that can help finding the cause of a data
race, namely the command-line option --ptrace-addr and the macro
DRD_STOP_TRACING_VAR(x). More information can be found in the manual.
- Fixed a subtle bug that could cause false positive data race reports.
* ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
* The C++ demangler has been updated so as to work well with C++
compiled by up to at least g++ 4.6.
* Tool developers can make replacement/wrapping more flexible thanks
to the new option --soname-synonyms. This was reported above, but
in fact is very general and applies to all function
replacement/wrapping, not just to malloc-family functions.
* Round-robin scheduling of threads can be selected, using the new
option --fair-sched= yes. Prior to this change, the pipe-based
thread serialisation mechanism (which is still the default) could
give very unfair scheduling. --fair-sched=yes improves
responsiveness of interactive multithreaded applications, and
improves repeatability of results from the thread checkers Helgrind
and DRD.
* For tool developers: support to run Valgrind on Valgrind has been
improved. We can now routinely Valgrind on Helgrind or Memcheck.
* gdbserver now shows the float shadow registers as integer
rather than float values, as the shadow values are mostly
used as bit patterns.
* Increased limit for the --num-callers command line flag to 500.
* Performance improvements for error matching when there are many
suppression records in use.
* Improved support for DWARF4 debugging information (bug 284184).
* Initial support for DWZ compressed Dwarf debug info.
* Improved control over the IR optimiser's handling of the tradeoff
between performance and precision of exceptions. Specifically,
--vex-iropt-precise-memory-exns has been removed and replaced by
--vex-iropt-register-updates, with extended functionality. This
allows the Valgrind gdbserver to always show up to date register
values to GDB.
* Modest performance gains through the use of translation chaining for
JIT-generated code.
* ==================== FIXED BUGS ====================
The following bugs have been fixed or resolved. Note that "n-i-bz"
stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
but never got a bugzilla entry. We encourage you to file bugs in
bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.

This is a bugfix release. Most of the bugs dealt https and colocated
branches glitches. Upgrading is recommended for all users of earlier 2.5
releases.
Changes in memcached 1.4.15
Overview
This is a somewhat experimental release which pushes thread
performance even more than before. Since this is a more
experimental release than usual, and contains no other major
fixes or features, we urge some caution for important
deployments. We feel as though it is high quality software, but
please take caution and do slow rollouts or testing. Thanks!
Fixes
* Add some mild thread documentation
* README.md was missing from dist tarball
* Issue 286 : --disable-coverage drops "-pthread" option
* Reduce odds of getting OOM errors in some odd cases
New Features
Thread scalability is much improved for reads, and somewhat
improved for writes. In a pure read-only situation on a dual
socket six core NUMA machine I've tested key fetch rates around
13.6 million keys per second.
More tuning is necessary and you'd get significant lag at that
rate, but that shows the theoretical limit of the locks.
Changes in memcached 1.4.14
Overview
Fixes
* fix compile issue with new GCC's
* Added support for automake-1.12 in autogen.sh
* Use Markdown for README.
* Fixed issue with invalid binary protocol touch command
expiration time (http://code.google.com/p/memcached/issues/detail?id=275)
* Define touch command probe for DTrace support
* Error and exit if we don't have hugetlb support (changes -L behavior)
* update reassign/automove documentation
* Remove USE_SYSTEM_MALLOC define
* slab rebalancing from random class
* split slab rebalance and automove threads
* pre-split slab pages into slab freelists
* Avoid race condition in test during pid creation by blind retrying
New Features
This release mainly features a number of small bugfixes, but
also a change to slab rebalance behavior.
Previously, if you moved a slab page from one slab to another,
you had to wait until that new page was fully used before moving
another one. That wait has been removed, and you can move pages
as fast as the system can ... move them.
A few new features as well:
slabs reassign
slabs reassign -1 15 will pick a page from any slab class and move it to class 15.
slabs automove
slabs automove 2 now enables an ultra aggressive page
reassignment algorithm. On every eviction, it will try to move a
slab page into that class. You should never run this in
production unless you have a very, very good idea of what's
going to happen. For most people who have spurious evictions
everywhere, you'll end up mass evicting random data and hurting
your hit rate. It can be useful to momentarily enable for
emergency situations, or if you have a data access pattern where
evictions should never happen.
This was work we were planning on doing already, but twitter's
rewrite has people presently interested in trying it out. You've
been warned.
This is purely a bug fix release, and contain no new functionality
since 0.6.0.
This release fixes a bug in the iterator implementation of
flat_segment_tree. Prior to this release, the iterator would treat
the position immediately before the end position to be the end
position, which would result in incorrectly skipping the last data
position during iteration. This release contains a fix for that
bug.
It also contains fixes for various build errors and compiler
warnings.
Many thanks to David Tardon, Stephan Bergmann, Tomáš Chvátal,
and Markus Mohrhard for having submitted patches since the release
of 0.6.0.
