Released on 2003/12/16, its state was stable.
* Added the BT_PROG_GREP variable to the build system; this is to allow the
user override the grep program used by xmlcatmgr. In some systems, like
Solaris, the -F flag is not supported, so an alternative must be used.
* Fixed AWK code generation to work with the mawk interpreter.
* Fixed Makefile.boot to install documentation inside the directory pointed
by the BT_DIR_DOC variable.
Thanks to reed@ for mawk fixes and grant@ for Solaris tests.
* Adapted Buildtool scripts to the latest version, 0.14. As a side effect,
distribution documentation is now installed into the system.
* Minor manpage fixes.
* Code cleanup.
Fixes in the package: avoid overwriting catalog files when using 'make
replace' (if you have 0.2 installed actually, it won't take any effect, so
be careful by backing up pkg/share/{sgml,xml}/catalog). 'make update' will
work fine.
variables from the catalogs.mk file to buildlink2.mk. These may be needed in
a package that does *not* provide catalog files (i.e., all the functionality
in catalogs.mk is not required).
* Added XML Catalogs management. You must use the new `-s' flag to handle
SGML Catalogs as XML format becomes the default.
* Dropped use of getopt in favour of getopts, as the former does not handle whitespace in variables properly.
* Handle comments in SGML catalogs properly.
* Several manpage improvements.
Changes in the package:
* Implement a new framework to automatically register/deregister catalog
entries. This is available through the catalogs.mk file. Packages do
not need to call xmlcatmgr directly any more, nor do tricky things in
their PLISTs.
* Install two catalog files under PKG_SYSCONFDIR, one called sgml/catalog
and the other xml/catalog. Both are completely different things, so they
can't be mixed. Also avoid that any of these catalogs refer to the other
one, as this could cause problems.
have it be automatically included by bsd.pkg.mk if USE_PKGINSTALL is set
to "YES". This enforces the requirement that bsd.pkg.install.mk be
included at the end of a package Makefile. Idea suggested by Julio M.
Merino Vidal <jmmv at menta.net>.
xmlcatmgr is a command line script used to manipulate SGML and XML catalogs.
It is designed with simplicity in mind: it does not depend on external
programs nor libraries, so it is ideal to manage catalog files from inside
pkgsrc.
XML catalogs are files that contain mappings from public identifiers to
system identifiers. This allows XML parsers to locate public identifiers
in the local system.
