makeinfo if no native makeinfo executable exists. Honor TEXINFO_REQD
when determining whether the native makeinfo can be used.
* Remove USE_MAKEINFO and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=makeinfo.
* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
link to appear in the tools directory and be picked up and embedded in
one of the installed scripts. Since this package clearly uses gzip at
runtime add an explicit USE_TOOLS+=gzip:run and fixup the gzip path that
gets embedded. Fixes PR pkg/32218. Bump PKGREVISION.
USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o options("expressions") has been reduced to 1000: the limit
of 5000 introduced in 2.1.0 was liable to give crashes from C
stack overflow.
NEW FEATURES
o Use of 'pch' (e.g. in points) in the symbol font 5 is now
interpreted in the single-byte encoding used by that font.
Similarly, strwidth now recognizes that font 5 has a different
encoding from that of the locale. (These are likely to affect
the answer only in MBCS locales such as UTF-8.)
o The URW font metrics have been updated to versions from late
2002 which cover more glyphs, including Cyrillic.
o New postscript encodings for CP1250 (Windows East European),
ISO Latin-7 (8859-13, Latvian, Lithuanian and Maori), Cyrillic
(8859-5), KOI8-R, KOI8-U and CP1251.
o configure has more support for the Intel and Portland Group
compilers on ix86 and x86_64 Linux.
o R CMD INSTALL will clean up if interrupted (e.g. by ctrl-C from
the keyboard).
o There is now a comprehensive French translation of the messages,
thanks to Philippe Grosjean.
DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
o The undocumented use of atan() with two arguments is deprecated:
instead use atan2() (as documented).
o The 'vfont' argument of axis() and mtext() is deprecated
(it currently warns and does nothing).
o The function mauchley.test() is deprecated (was a misspelling)
and replaced by mauchly.test()
Many BUG FIXES

- don't declare alloca on DragonFly, it conflicts with system headers
- patch libtool.m4 fragment for DrgaonFly

around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
post-configure time, even after the switch from buildlink2 to buildlink3.
Also, use SUBST_CLASSES instead of the custom post-configure target,
and take advantage of the fact that the "unwrap" SUBST_CLASS already
does mostly the right thing.
framework. The list of changes include:
* Modify compiler.mk so that "c" is always prepended to USE_LANGUAGES,
so we no longer need to say it in package Makefiles. Packages
should now append to USE_LANGUAGES instead of setting it.
* Create mk/compiler/f2c.mk which implements another pseudo-compiler
"f2c" that may be used with any C compiler backend, e.g.
PKGSRC_COMPILER= f2c ccache gcc
* Teach the various "real" compiler files, e.g., sunpro.mk, mipspro.mk,
etc., to use f2c if the native Fortran compiler isn't present.
Packages that use Fortran should now simply include the line:
USE_LANGUAGES+= fortran
in the package Makefile.
Changes 2.0.1:
This is a maintenance version mainly to fix a number of minor bugs and
issues. Some rather nasty bugs were Windows-specific.
Changes 2.0.0:
Many things have changed since 1.0. The R language has acquired namespaces,
exception handling constructs, formal methods and classes, much improved
garbage collection, generalized I/O via connection objects, and
considerable improvements in the graphics area. The user workspace has been
reorganized, and so has the set of packages that ship with R. Several
"recommended packages" deemed indispensable in a statistical system are
bundled. In addition, there has been a large number of more specific new
functions, tweaks, and bugfixes.
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.
# XXX: following comment still true for buildlink3?
# R does ugly things in the configure to get the default list of arguments
# for linking Fortran, which exposes the buildlink2 tricks so clean up
# afterwards
CHANGES IN R VERSION 1.9.1
NEW FEATURES
o as.Date() now has a method for "POSIXlt" objects.
o mean() has a method for "difftime" objects and so summary()
works for such objects.
o legend() has a new argument 'pt.cex'.
o plot.ts() has more arguments, particularly 'yax.flip'.
o heatmap() has a new 'keep.dendro' argument.
o The default barplot method now handles vectors and 1-d arrays
(e.g., obtained by table()) the same, and uses grey instead of
heat color palettes in these cases. (Also fixes PR#6776.)
o nls() now looks for variables and functions in its formula in
the environment of the formula before the search path, in the
same way lm() etc look for variables in their formulae.
DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
o Support for non-IEEE-754 arithmetic (which has been untested
for some time) will be removed in the next full release.
o Direct use of R INSTALL|REMOVE|BATCH|COMPILE|SHLIB is
deprecated: use R CMD instead.
o The gnome/GNOME graphics device is deprecated and will be
removed in the next full release.
Plus Bug Fixes.
building even though it uses INSTALL_DATA on them so set SHAREMODE=644
rather than have to patch an ever increasing number of files.
Idea from Julio M. Merino Vidal.
USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o Underscore '_' is now allowed in syntactically valid names, and
make.names() no longer changes underscores. Very old code
that makes use of underscore for assignment may now give
confusing error messages.
o Package 'base' has been split into packages 'base', 'graphics',
'stats' and 'utils'. All four are loaded in a default
installation, but the separation allows a 'lean and mean'
version of R to be used for tasks such as building indices.
Packages ctest, eda, modreg, mva, nls, stepfun and ts have been
merged into stats, and lqs has been returned to MASS. In all
cases a stub has been left that will issue a warning and ensure
that the appropriate new home is loaded. All the time series
datasets have been moved to package stats. Sweave has been
moved to utils.
Package mle has been moved to stats4 which will become the
central place for statistical S4 classes and methods
distributed with base R. Package mle remains as a stub.
Users may notice that code in .Rprofile is run with only the
new base loaded and so functions may now not be found. For
example, ps.options(horizontal = TRUE) should be preceded by
library(graphics) or called as graphics::ps.options or,
better, set as a hook -- see ?setHook.
o There has been a concerted effort to speed up the startup of
an R session: it now takes about 2/3rds of the time of 1.8.1.
o A warning is issued at startup in a UTF-8 locale, as currently R
only supports single-byte encodings.
