* callback/callback.c: use VARRUNDIR instead of MGETTY_PID_FILE
* mgetty.c: use VARRUNDIR to get name of PID file, non-conditional
* policy.h: MGETTY_PID_FILE is gone, VARRUNDIR used instead
* mgetty.c: write CallerId to UTMP, if available, Connect otherwise
* fax/faxspool: convert .pdf files via Acroread (contributed by
Michael Fischer v. Mollard, mfvm@gmx.de).
* Makefile, mksed: introduce $VARRUNDIR
* fax/faxrunqd.in, fax/faxrunq.in, fax/faxspool.in: change
location of ".last_run" to $VARRUNDIR/faxqueue_done (previously,
$fax_spool_out/.last_run creation was vulnerable to symlink attacks)
* cnd.c: add NMBR=<nnn> format for Digi DataFire RAS
* login.c: add \Y hack (simplar to \I) to get CallerID in ut_host field
* faxlib.c: distinguish Elink 310 and Elink 343
as files instead of requiring the user to install one of our largest packages
just to build them. Note, in the previous version of this pkg, the docs generated
with latex weren't even being installed (!).
From the CHANGES file:
----------------------
Changes from 3.3.1 to 3.3.2
New features:
- Added TIFF output mode (provided by M.Liberi) based on libtiff. Uses ZIP
deflate compression to avoid LZW patent issues at the risk of reduced
portability.
- DV command (vertical text)
Bug fixes:
- Command line options for pen color and pen width take precedence over PC
or PW statements in the HPGL file now. This allows creation of PBM bitmaps
instead of PPM pixmaps from color plots again (by setting all pens to
black, -c11111111), and should also help for programs that use several pens
at constant widths, but emit global PW commands with every SP statement.
A true fix for the latter case would require keeping track of the current
pen settings for every line in the internal metaformat (maybe in 3.4)
- Removed the A4 size limitation for Encapsulated PostScript output
- Default 20x20 plot size calculation was broken for Landscape format
- Black pen was displayed as light gray in X11 preview, now uses a very dark
gray (gray10)
- pen color was not decoded correctly in PE pencolor statements
- output file was closed twice in to_eps.c, which could cause a segmentation
fault inside (g)libc if hp2xx was used in batch mode
Changes from 3.3.0 to 3.3.1
New features:
- PE with fractional coordinates (completes PE support)
- unlimited label lengths through dynamic reallocation of LB memory
Bug fixes:
- PS/RO handling was still broken, should be fixed now
- xfig file headers had erroneously claimed 3.2 compliance, but the files
still had 3.1 format
- Makefiles in ~/makes updated
- DR and DI did not initialize character properties when called without
parameters
- Current address of Michael Schmitz added to documentation
- removed leftover PCL file acad.pcl from hp-tests
Changes from 3.3.ALPHA2 to 3.3.0
New features:
(none)
Bug fixes:
- Combinations of PS, RO and the -r command line switch could lead to
wrong scaling
- the position of a clipping box was miscalculated for labels
Changes from 3.3.ALPHA to 3.3.ALPHA2:
New features:
- the PS (plot size) command is now supported, allowing 'white space'
around plots
- support for the EW (edge wedge) command
Bug fixes:
- PC support in 3.3.ALPHA was still limited to 8 colors
- PW had the parameters backwards and no provision for the
'set them all to this value' variant
- tick marks were scaled incorrectly (long-standing bug)
- EA advanced pen position (long-standing bug)
Changes from 3.2.0 to 3.3.ALPHA:
New features:
- Character set support for fonts 1-7, and the 'upper half' of font 0.
- Support for most character-related commands (CA,CS,SA,SS)
- Support for the IW (input window, i.e. clipping) command
- Partial support for the PE (polyline encoded) command (integer coords only)
- Output generation for Brian Smith's XFig
- Output generation for Gnuplot
- Output generation in PNG format
- Automatic medium size selection code in the PCL initialization sequence
- Centering (-C) now supported even in true-size (-t) mode
- HPGL/2 Pen Color and Pen Width support for up to 256 virtual pens

*** 7.3.0
This release accumulates over two years of changes throughout the
program. In general, the emphasis has been on improving the program's
usability, making the AI smarter, improving existing games, and
extending to Civ-type games, rather than adding random new games to
the library.
The Unix user interface has been rewritten to use tcl/tk. It includes
a full set of menus, resizeable panes in the map windows, buttons for
common operations, a mouseover display, and many additional map
display options. There is also a full set of dialogs for setting up a
game, plus a chat window to facilitate setting up networked games.
There is now a port to Windows, using the tcl/tk-based interface,
which means no more requirement to run an X server. The Windows port
still has bugs though.
The Mac interface now has floating windows for most auxiliary windows,
city and research dialogs, and more display controls, including
player controls over most colors and imagery used. Selected units
can now blink rather than being surrounded with a box.
Unix networking support now allows for more than two players in a
game, and the game setup dialogs are synchronized, so for instance
clicking on a variant checkbox causes all players' checkboxes to
change.
Hans Ronne added the game "Ancient Near East" (anc-near-east.g),
similar to Civilization but with more detail, such as different kinds
of wheat to discover. The included map of the Near East is
spectacularly large and detailed.
A Civilization II emulation (civ2.g) has been added. The game works,
but happiness is not implemented, most of the city improvements have
no effect, nor do the Wonders.
Linn Stanton added an extended version of the standard game (lhs.g)
that includes radar, artillery, aaa, engineers, mines, and minefields.
Many new graphic images are available, particularly for terrain.
Xconq can load images directly from image files in standard formats
(although only GIF is available at present).
Players in the standard game get towns with names appropriate to
their chosen nationalities.
It is now possible to play independent units as if they were a regular
side, and (more usefully), it's possible to have an AI run the
independent units. Watch out for the marauding barbarians!
A second AI type, the "iplayer", is available. It is a minimal
AI that does basic tactical planning for individual units, but
does not attempt to coordinate them.
A set of commands, agreement-draft etc, are available for setting
up agreements. (Agreement support is still incomplete though.)
New commands:
"c-rate" sets conversion rates for materials (division of
trade into science/shields/luxuries in Civ, for instance).
"collect" sets up a task to collect materials from terrain.
"research" sets per-side research into advances.
There is a new GDL type "advance", to represent scientific or
technological advances. Game designers can lay out a whole technology
tree, and either units or whole sides may do research to achieve
advances.
To allow "research" to apply to advances, the existing research
activity to develop tech levels has been renamed to "development".
Its characteristics remain the same however.
The "extract" action is available for units to get materials
directly from terrain.
A game design can include "advanced" units that are like Civ
cities; they are variable-sized, and can collect materials from
the surrounding terrain.
GDL includes many more variables, type properties, and tables.
Some of the more notable additions include:
global "combat-model", to choose algorithm for combat resolution
global "indepside-has-ai", to control indepside use of AI.
global "country-border-color" etc, to control colors used by
interfaces
side property "treasury", tables "gives-to-treasury" and
"takes-from-treasury", to accumulate materials for the
side as a whole
table "advance-needed-to-build", to define how the technology
tree enables the construction of unit types
table "terrain-density", to add random variation to synthesized
terrain
tables "unit-consumption-to-grow", "size-limit-without-advance",
and "side-limit-without-occupant", to regulate the
growth of advanced units (cities)
table "cellwide-protection-for", that controls protection for
all units in a cell
unit type properties "attack" and "defend", to define generic
attack/defense strengths
unit type property "advanced", to define advanced units
unit type properties "advanced-auto-construct" and
"advanced-auto-research", to automate the activities
of advanced units
unit type property "ai-tactical-range", to control the area
of awareness for a unit's tactical decisions
Sami Perttu contributed a supply system model; see doc/README.supply
for more detail on how to use in game designs.
The tcl/tk port includes experimental support for isometric display,
but this needs more work, and so is turned off by default. (See the
top of tcltk/tkconq.tcl to see how to enable.)
The Unix port uses autoconf for configuration. Xconq now conforms
better to FHS; library files reside in /usr/local/share/xconq, while
score files live in /var/lib/xconq/scores.
Many many bug fixes and smaller cleanups.
relaxed to be more GPL-like. Also, now requires tk-8.3.x, the "makefile"
adds an option to use -mandoc for BSD-style man pages, which we enable,
and Tkman now has a homepage.
XLOCK_LIGHT don't use MesaGL or XPM if defined
XLOCK_DEFAULT_MODE default mode if no "-mode" is specified
2. Use audioplay(1) for sound support. I don't think the "-sound" flag
has ever worked, but I might have miss something....
to precent check-shlibs from discovering that ldd(8) can't deal with
e.g. Linux binaries
* On "make reinstall", make sure the package gets deinstalled first.
No more 'make deinstall ; make reinstall'.
