- Convert MASTER_SITES to distcache of FreeBSD
- Delete patch-aa, taking care by Makefile of pkgsrc side
(upstream)
- Update GDSreader 0.3 to 0.3.2
-------------------------------
New feature for gdsreader-0.3.2
Generation of POVRAY scene files.
Quick Overview:
GDS2, (or "Calma"), files contain 2D shape data, and each shape has
a specific layer number, (gdsno), and a datatype number. To make
any sort of 3D model, these two integer numbers must be "mapped"
to a corresponding thickness and depth parameter, and also to a
color specification. This is handled by the user-created
"layers.config" file. A layers.config file needs to be made for
each technology you wish to convert. A process which differs only
in the number of metal layers used is considered a different
technology. The layers.config file is also used in the generation
of postscript and HPGL output, so several of the parameters in
a layers.config file do not necessarily apply to POVRAY output.

was using the wrong filename.
Harden fsdb reader against xtags that move backward in time.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or

* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
DIY Layout Creator (DIYLC in short) lets the user draw electronic schematics
and board/chassis layouts quickly and without a steep learning curve.
It's particularly useful for breadboard or stripboard-style layouts, where
the board is inflexible and discrete components have variable leg lengths.
behaves incorrectly on many platforms (E.g. NetBSD)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/1319785
Fixes build on Linux, corrects icon file names on NetBSD and others.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Discussed with dmcmahill@ - but as we're both right-thinking people that
understand that desktop icons are for pussies, strictly speaking this
has been build-tested and brain-tested only.
----------

Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.8.2
=================================
Bugfix release.
* [994361] Fixed a libgeda crash bug involving nets inside symbols.
* [1226246] Fixed a gnetlist data corruption bug when using refdes
containing the string "POWER".
* Updates to build system to allow compilation from git on systems
with Automake >= 1.13.0.
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.8.1
=================================
Bugfix release with correct dynamic version information for libgeda.
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.8.0
=================================
* `gschem' and `gnetlist' have updated and rewritten user guides.
* All tools now give more informative error messages if they are
unable to load schematic or symbol files due to syntax errors.
* All tools now correctly handle schematic and symbol files with `\r',
`\n', or `\r\n` line endings, or a mixture.
* Unconnected pin ends and net ends are now all drawn with the same
box marker in `gschem' and printed output.
* Net segments with at least two connections (including indirect
connections via `netname=' attributes) are now drawn with arrowheads
rather than box markers on dangling ends in `gschem' and printed
output.
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.7.2
=================================
* `geda-gaf' now requires GTK+ 2.16.0 or later.
* A greatly expanded Scheme API has been added to gEDA/gaf for use by
extension authors. See the `geda-scheme' Info manual for more
details. Existing extensions may need to be modified to load the
`(geda deprecated)' or `(gschem deprecated)' modules.
* The `component-library-search' function for `gafrc' files now skips
directories without symbols, and searches for libraries recursively.
* `gschem' keybinding improvements:
- Keybindings are now unaffected by Caps Lock.
- Keystrokes are displayed using the same characters as on keycaps
(e.g. `:' instead of `colon').
- Keystrokes may use extended modifiers (Super, Hyper and Meta).
- Key bindings can be modified in any rc file or interactively using
the `global-set-key' function. See notes in `system-gschemrc' for
examples.
* `gschem' now displays help files and component documentation on all
platforms, including Windows. The `locate' tool is no longer used
to search for component documentation files.
* The `schdiff' tool for generating visual diffs of schematics and
symbols has been added. It can be used with most version control
systems. See `man schdiff' for more details.
* The `bom' and `bom2' backends to `gnetlist' now give error messages
if no attribute file can be found. The `-O attrib_file=FILE' and
`-O attribs=ATTRIB,ATTRIB...' options have also been added.
* A new `ewnet' backend has been added to `gnetlist'. This outputs
netlists for use with the National Instruments ULTIboard layout
tool.
* The `verilog' backend to `gnetlist' now supports concatenated net
naming like "{a,b,c[3:0]}".
* `gsch2pcb' no longer supports the `m4_command' parameter in project
files.
* The `--m4-pcbdir' and `--m4-file' arguments to `gsch2pcb' now work
again.
* `gsymfix.pl' has been renamed to `gsymfix'.
* Man pages are now available for all programs installed as part of
gEDA/gaf.
* The undocumented programs `gnet_hier_verilog', `gsymupdate', `gschupdate'
and `sch2eaglepos.sh' are no longer installed to ${prefix}/bin.
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.7.1
=================================
* gEDA is now compatible with Guile 2.0.
* gEDA/gaf applications no longer complain when trying to load an rc
file twice, or when an rc file doesn't exist.
* `gschem' allows objects to be moved by dragging without having to
select them first.
* `gschem' now supports keybindings with more than one modifier key,
and "Deselect" is bound to <Control Shift A> by default.
* `gnetlist' correctly handles multiple renames of the same net. This
resolves some long-standing bugs with multipage schematics.
* The `spice-sdb' backend for `gnetlist' now has built-in support for
`SUBCKT_NMOS' and `SUBCKT_PMOS' devices.
* A new `makedepend' backend has been added to `gnetlist'. It
generates Makefile code for SPICE simulation dependencies.
* Visibility of embedded component attributes are now preserved by
`gattrib'.
* `gsch2pcb' correctly handles footprint names with hyphens (`-').
* `gsch2pcb' project files support quoting and escaping in
`schematics' entries.
* Considerable enhancements to Unicode support when printing
schematics or exporting PostScript.
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.7.0
=================================
* All gEDA/gaf applications now handle configuration files much more
strictly, and provide much more useful feedback when an error
occurs.
* Several changes to `gschem' command-line options:
- The `-t' option is no longer supported.
- Several command-line options now support a long-form alternative.
- The `-s' option can now be used to run multiple Scheme scripts
during `gschem' startup.
- A new `-c' option is available, which runs a Scheme expression
during `gschem' startup.
- A new `-L' option is available, which adds a directory to the
Scheme load path.
- A new `-V' or `--version' option is available, which displays
version information.
* `gschem' now provides a "Select All" function, which is bound to
<Control a> by default, along with a corresponding "Deselect"
function.
* In the `gschem' "Add component" dialog, filtering the component
library will expand matching libraries. If the filter is cancelled,
all libraries are collapsed. Components can now be selected by
double-clicking on them in the component list.
* The `gschem' "Edit Text Properties" dialog now has an easier to use
"Alignment" menu.
* Printed text size now better matches on-screen text size in
`gschem'.
* Special characters, including commas, are now escaped or quoted
appropriately in `gattrib' CSV output.
* Several changes to `gnetlist' command-line options:
- Four command-line options specific to the `spice-sdb' backend have
been removed. They can be replaced with `-O <option>' according
to the following table:
-e, --embedd -O embedd_mode
-I, --include -O include_mode
-n, --nomunge -O nomunge_mode
-s, --sort -O sort_mode
- The list of available backends is now obtained using a new
`--list-backends' option. `-g help' no longer outputs a list of
backends.
- A new `-L' option is available, which adds a directory to the
Scheme load path.
- A new `-V' or `--version' option is available, which displays
version information.
- When run with invalid command-line arguments, `gnetlist' now exits
with non-zero exit status.
* Several `gnetlist' backends have now been fixed so that it should no
longer be necessary to set an expanded Guile stack in gEDA's config
files.
* The `spice-sdb' backend for `gnetlist' now supports probes
(`TESTPOINT' devices).
* The undocumented `mk_verilog_syms' program is no longer installed.
The symbols it creates are still installed to
`${prefix}/share/gEDA/sym/verilog'.

-----------------------
3.3.54 02jan14 Added LZ4 double compression on hierarchy tree for FST when
hierarchy size exceeds 4MB.
Fix to regular expression filtering when +I+ form expressions
are encountered in the SST. Previously, the wrong value of
regex match was used on 32-bit architectures due to the
stack layout.
Removed --disable-inline-asm ./configure flag as inline
assembly has been removed because it is generating incorrectly
in some cases on x86_64.

Tempfile creation fix for Windows. Using tmpnam() is not
enough and fails depending on user permissions.
Make vcd2fst use FastLZ instead of LZ4 as a default compression
type if an EVCD file is being processed as it (re-)compresses
much better. Using -4/-F/-Z still gives expected results.
Changed double printf formatting for FSDB to "%.16g" to match
VCD formatting.
Added very fast I/O write capability to fst2vcd.
Added support for FSDB_BYTES_PER_BIT_2B (EVCD) in FSDB loader.

be examined in set_GLOBALS_x().
Minor cleanup in treesearch_gtk2.c: removed redundant show
widget invocation.
Added missing compressBound() for compress2() dest mallocs.

Icarus Verilog 0.9.7 is Available (August 26th, 2013)
-----------------------------
The developers are pleased to announce the next stable release in
the 0.9 series, version 0.9.7. Icarus Verilog is a mostly complete
implementation of the hardware description language Verilog, as
described in IEEE Std 1364-2005. It also includes a number of user
requested extensions. It is freely available (open source), is
supported on most operating systems, and will be available as a
precompiled package for many of these systems.
Icarus Verilog 0.9.7 is primarily a bug fix release. Therefore, we
recommend people using the 0.9.6 or earlier releases upgrade to 0.9.7
as soon as possible. Version 0.9.7 is the recommended version for all
new users.
More details, including known limitations, deviation from IEEE Std
1364-2005, where to obtain the source code, and links to some of the
precompiled packages can be found in the Release Notes located here:
<http://iverilog.wikia.com/wiki/Release_Notes_Icarus_Verilog_0_9_7>
(pkgsrc)
0.9.4 to 0.9.7 update and
two patches are added for DESTDIR and 'mkdir: dep: Not a directory' problem.
GHDL is an open-source simulator for the VHDL language. GHDL allows
you to compile and execute your VHDL code directly in your PC.
Combined with a GUI-based wave viewer and a good VHDL text editor,
GHDL is a very powerful tool for writing, testing and simulating
your VHDL code.
are replaced with .include "../../devel/readline/buildlink3.mk", and
USE_GNU_READLINE are removed,
* .include "../../devel/readline/buildlink3.mk" without USE_GNU_READLINE
are replaced with .include "../../mk/readline.buildlink3.mk".
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
Dinotrace is now distributed under GPL v3 (previously GPL 2).
Fix signal radix being lost when trace is reread.
Fix core dump when verilog trace has single timestamp.
Fix core dump when no hostname in /etc/hosts.
Fix message trashing stack and make cppcheck clean.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
- remove LIBXAW variable. It is handled by buildlink3.mk now
- simplify patches and Makefile in packages using libXaw
- in some cases force use of Xaw3d (won't build with Xaw)
- replace some directly included of x11/Xaw3d with mk/xaw.buildlink3.mk
In next part:
- replace more includes with mk/xaw.buildlink3.mk
On DragonFly, the path for bison and lex were set to /usr/local/bin/bison
and /usr/local/bin/flex. These were basically hardcoded. The added
patches set the paths to "bison" and "flex" which pick up the
${WRKDIR}/.tools/bin/ and ${PREFIX}/bin versions instead.
flex was removed from USE_TOOLS because the pkgsrc FlexLexer.h can build
openscad and the one that comes with DragonFly can't. It was replaced
with the flex buildlink3 and it should work everywhere.
It seems like the document tarball is extracted twice, once into the
work directory and then again directly into the destdir. To prevent the
cat pages from installing, the man directory was removed after the
second extraction.
At the same time, the hardcoded variations of "lc2.10" were replaced by
a variable to ease future upgrades.
Remove devel/py-ctypes (only needed by and supporting python24).
Remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED and PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE
lines that just mirror defaults now.
Miscellaneous cleanup while editing all these files.
by casting string objects to const char * before passing to printf.
While here, switch PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT from "destdir" to "user-destdir"
(no reason I can see for the former, it appears to date way back) and
add patch comments.
PKGREVISION -> 9, since with netbsd-5 and older -current the issue wasn't
fatal at compile time.

Release Notes for PCB snapshot 20110918
========================================================================
This release represents over 797 commits and as such this summary
clearly is not complete. See the ChangeLog file for the complete list
of changes.
Features
--------

nubs on metric grids" issue. Also, units are allowed on pretty much
every "coordinate" that PCB accepts. Example: 5.4in, 10cm, 0.55mm.
New configure option --enable-coord64 to force (slower?) 64-bit type
for coordinates on 32-bit systems (if you need a board bigger than 1
meter across). The internal precision is 1 nanometer, the internal
type is "Coord".
- MinGW support.
- New GL mode for the gtk hid with translucent traces.
- New GTK layer view/choose widget and other GUI enhancements.
- GTK HID warns if the *.pcb file has changed on disk.

- Much code which is no longer needed has been removed.
- HID init method changed to allow for hid struct expansion without
breaking everything.
- New HID calls for whole-pad and whole-pin drawing.
- ClearAndRedrawOutput() replaced with Redraw().
- Board objects use hashes instead of lists to store parts, so
pointers don't change.

that I haven't yet tracked down or pinned on guile-gnome-platform or anything else.
New in 20070514
a "gwave2" version that uses Gtk+-2.0 by way of guile-gnome-platform.
Feature-wise, about the same as the previous release.
I think I've fixed most of the crashes. Known defects:
Several dialogs that should have defaults don't.
The change-waveform-color menu doesn't show the colors, just numbers.

Release Notes for PCB snapshot 20100929
========================================================================
This release represents over 240 commits and as such this summary
clearly is not complete. See the ChangeLog file for the complete list
of changes.
Features
--------
- PCB can directly import (forward annotate) schematics while running.
- Many places where measurements are entered now accept units, like
"5mm", and "cm" and "in" are allowed too.
- Free Rotate Buffer added to menu
- Polygon Hole tool.
- F12 invokes the Lock tool.
- Russian translation added.
- DBUS is enabled by default when possible.
- Command-line exporters can run action scripts too.
- GTK tool tips on elements, pins, and nets.
- Command-line actions in GUIs do not require (,,) syntax.
- PCB can import footprints both in subdirectories and the named directories.
- New GCode exporter.
- Footprint files use ".fp" as the suffix; this is automatically
searched for if needed.
- GTK dialogs do not show at startup unless requested.
- Stackup can be specified on the command line for command-line exporting.
- Reference card updated.
- The snap-point in pads is the center.
- The 's' key toggles polygons to clear/notclear all pads and pins
Bug Fixes
---------
- Various PNG export fixes.
- lesstif's magic toggle-layers-on-flip fixed.
- Arc bounding box math fixed.
- Fixed: sometimes, disabling silk also disabled the solder layer.

- Add mnemonic for "close without saving"
- Don't select silk on the back side when it's invisible.
- Various polygon rendering bugs fixed.
- PNG drill bloat export fixed.
- Attempts to change polygon clearance *on* polygons results in a hint.
- PNG doesn't segfault if not all graphic formats are supported.
- Various toporouter fixes and improvements
- HID_Mixed is supported in attribute dialogs
- Flipped rectangles in PS exports are drawn correctly.
- Optimizer removes micro-traces under pads.
- Vias, pins, and pads are now drawn under the mask instead of over.
- Windows supported better.
Other
-----
- Sources converted to C99
- Doc extraction gives more control over categories.
- Thermal documentation updated.
- Actions can see the context they were invoked in
Notable changes in gEDA/gaf 1.6.2

refdes correctly.
* On Windows, `gschem' and `gattrib' will no longer launch with a
command window visible.

pkgsrc change: clean up DESTDIR support
alternative from mk/jpeg.buildlink3.mk
This allows selection of an alternative jpeg library (namely the x86 MMX,
SSE, SSE2 accelerated libjpeg-turbo) via JPEG_DEFAULT=libjpeg-turbo, and
follows the current standard model for alternatives (fam, motif, fuse etc).
The mechanical edits were applied via the following script:
#!/bin/sh
for d in */*; do
[ -d "$d" ] || continue
for i in "$d/"Makefile* "$d/"*.mk; do
case "$i" in *.orig|*"*"*) continue;; esac
out="$d/x"
sed -e 's;graphics/jpeg/buildlink3\.mk;mk/jpeg.buildlink3.mk;g' \
-e 's;BUILDLINK_PREFIX\.jpeg;JPEGBASE;g' \
< "$i" > "$out"
if cmp -s "$i" "$out"; then
rm -f "$out"
else
echo "Edited $i"
mv -f "$i" "$i.orig" && mv "$out" "$i"
fi
done
done
