Interface changes
* turn on _XOPEN_CURSES definition in curses.h.
* change _nc_has_mouse to has_mouse, reflect its use in C++ and Ada95.
* add is_pad and is_subwin functions for opaque access to the WINDOW structure.
* add tiparm, based on review of X/Open Curses Issue 7.
Library Improvements
* add a terminal driver for Windows console, which supports a MinGW port to
Windows.
* add extended functions which specify the SCREEN pointer for several curses
functions which use the global SP.
* improve the NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS feature by adding a check for an extended
terminfo capability U8.
* improve performance of tigetstr, etc., by using hashing code from tic.
* add WACS_xxx definitions to wide-character configuration for thick- and
double-lines.
* modify init_pair to allow caller to create extra color pairs beyond the
color_pairs limit, which use default colors.
Improvements to Programs
* add tabs program.
* modify tic's -I/-C dump to reformat acsc strings into canonical form (sorted,
unique mapping).
* add checks in tic for inconsistent cursor-movement controls, and for
inconsistent printer-controls.
* add special case to _nc_infotocap (used by tic and infocmp) to recognize the
setaf/setab strings from xterm+256color and xterm+88color, and provide a
reduced version which works with termcap.
/usr/pkg/include in the header search path shadows some of the system's
curses headers (happens when building or developing curses application
outside of the pkgsrc build system).
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
that need basic termlib functionality, i.e. tgetent(), tgoto(),
tputs(), etc. Together with the termlib.builtin.mk file, they will
use either a built-in termcap library, a built-in X/Open "enhanced"
curses library, or ncurses to provide these functions.
+ Add BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.* definitions to the various curses buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that give the "base" library name of the curses
library, e.g. curses, ncurses, etc. These are used by the termlib
files to set BUILDLINK_LIBNAME.termlib.
-lcurses so that GNU configure scripts that check for those ahead of
<ncurses.h> and -lncurses will still use ncurses instead of picking up
a system curses.
This was a regression introduced by my recent ncurses commits.
used by packages that need curses. From curses.buildlink3.mk:
CURSES_DEFAULT
This value represents the type of curses we wish to use on the
system. Setting this to "curses" means that the system curses
implementation is fine.
Possible: curses, ncurses, pdcurses
+ Move all code to detect a built-in version of curses into a
curses.builtin.mk file.
+ Add code to {n,pd}curses/buildlink3.mk so make the headers and
libraries usable as <curses.h> and -lcurses if _PKG_USE_CURSES is
defined. _PKG_USE_CURSES is only defined by curses.buildlink3.mk.
+ Improve the detection of native ncurses in ncurses/builtin.mk and
allow headers and libraries to be usable as <ncurses.h> and -lncurses.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
built-in or not into a separate builtin.mk file. The code to deal
checking for built-in software is much simpler to deal with in pkgsrc.
The buildlink3.mk file for a package will be of the usual format
regardless of the package, which makes it simpler for packagers to
update a package.
The builtin.mk file for a package must define a single yes/no variable
USE_BUILTIN.<pkg> that is used by bsd.buildlink3.mk to decide whether
to use the built-in software or to use the pkgsrc software.
as PREFER_PKGSRC. Preferences are determined by the most specific
instance of the package in either PREFER_PKGSRC or PREFER_NATIVE. If
a package is specified in neither or in both variables, then PREFER_PKGSRC
has precedence over PREFER_NATIVE.
BUILDLINK_PREFER_PKGSRC
This variable determines whether or not to prefer the pkgsrc
versions of software that is also present in the base system.
This variable is multi-state:
defined, or "yes" always prefer the pkgsrc versions
not defined, or "no" only use the pkgsrc versions if
needed by dependency requirements
This can also take a list of packages for which to prefer the
pkgsrc-installed software. The package names may be found by
consulting the value added to BUILDLINK_PACKAGES in the
buildlink[23].mk files for that package.
other platforms (a YES should have been a NO, plus it was in the wrong
place!). This should fix PR 24129.
* Add more sophisticated ncurses version detection for platforms that
actually have real ncurses in the base system. This should be a win
for FreeBSD systems.
* Downgrade the required ncurses to 5.0. The previous bump done in
revision 1.8 wasn't necessary since ncurses never had a dependency on
libiconv.
