The change logs between 0.7.65 and 0.7.77 total several hundred lines, and
consists primarily of very detailed per-codec trivia. The complete change
logs can be found in the source distribution as MediaInfo/History_CLI.txt and
MediaInfoLib/History_DLL.txt.
Pkgsrc:
- patch-MediaInfoLib_Source_MediaInfo_Text_File__Ttml.h applied upstream.
- pkglint a bit.
- mediainfo appears to have done some work in avoiding bashisms, so remove
"bash" from the tools.
- CONFIG_SHELL doesn't need to be explicitly bash any longer. Possibly this
was only ever necessary because bash seems to be the only shell that was
willing to treat a garbage shell substitution (caused by a bug in the
configure.ac) as somehow legal.
- ... and libmediainfo now actually builds if you accidentally on purpose
override CONFIG_SHELL to be pdksh.
* Split mediaindo into devel/libzen, libmediainfo, and mediainfo.
