1.0.1:

- change license to less restrictive MIT license
A quick single-file MIT-Licenced library for easily adding evaluatable
expressions into python projects. Say you want to allow a user to set an alarm
volume, which could depend on the time of day, alarm level, how many previous
alarms had gone off, and if there is music playing at the time.
Or if you want to allow simple formulae in a web application, but don't want
to give full eval() access, or don't want to run in javascript on the client side.
It's deliberately very simple, just a single file you can dump into a project,
or import from pypi (pip or easy_install).
Internally, it's using the amazing python ast module to parse the expression,
which allows very fine control of what is and isn't allowed. It should be
completely safe in terms of what operations can be performed by the expression.
The only issue I know to be aware of is that you can create an expression which
takes a long time to evaluate, or which evaluating requires an awful lot of
memory, which leaves the potential for DOS attacks. There is basic protection
against this, and you can lock it down further if you desire.
You should be aware of this when deploying in a public setting.
The defaults are pretty locked down and basic, and it's very easy to add whatever
extra specific functionality you need (your own functions, variable/name lookup, etc).
Upstream changes:
CHANGES IN R 3.2.2:
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
* It is now easier to use secure downloads from https:// URLs on
builds which support them: no longer do non-default options need
to be selected to do so. In particular, packages can be
installed from repositories which offer https:// URLs, and those
listed by setRepositories() now do so (for some of their
mirrors).
Support for https:// URLs is available on Windows, and on other
platforms if support for libcurl was compiled in and if that
supports the https protocol (system installations can be expected
to do). So https:// support can be expected except on rather old
OSes (an example being OS X 'Snow Leopard', where a non-system
version of libcurl can be used).
(Windows only) The default method for accessing URLs _via_
download.file() and url() has been changed to be "wininet" using
Windows API calls. This changes the way proxies need to be set
and security settings made: there have been some reports of sites
being inaccessible under the new default method (but the previous
methods remain available).
NEW FEATURES:
* cmdscale() gets new option list. for increased flexibility when a
list should be returned.
* configure now supports texinfo version 6.0, which (unlike the
change from 4.x to 5.0) is a minor update. (Wish of PR#16456.)
* (Non-Windows only) download.file() with default method = "auto"
now chooses "libcurl" if that is available and a https:// or
ftps:// URL is used.
* (Windows only) setInternet2(TRUE) is now the default. The
command-line option --internet2 and environment variable
R_WIN_INTERNET2 are now ignored.
Thus by default the "internal" method for download.file() and
url() uses the "wininet" method: to revert to the previous
default use setInternet2(FALSE).
This means that https:// can be read by default by
download.file() (they have been readable by file() and url()
since R 3.2.0).
There are implications for how proxies need to be set (see
?download.file): also, cacheOK = FALSE is not supported.
* chooseCRANmirror() and chooseBioCmirror() now offer HTTPS mirrors
in preference to HTTP mirrors. This changes the interpretation
of their ind arguments: see their help pages.
* capture.output() gets optional arguments type and split to pass
to sink(), and hence can be used to capture messages.
C-LEVEL FACILITIES:
* Header Rconfig.h now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H if the platform has
the alloca.h header (it is needed to define alloca on Solaris and
AIX, at least: see 'Writing R Extensions' for how to use it).
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The libtool script generated by configure has been modified to
support FreeBSD >= 10 (PR#16410).
BUG FIXES:
* The HTML help page links to demo code failed due to a change in R
3.2.0. (PR#16432)
* If the na.action argument was used in model.frame(), the original
data could be modified. (PR#16436)
* getGraphicsEvent() could cause a crash if a graphics window was
closed while it was in use. (PR#16438)
* matrix(x, nr, nc, byrow = TRUE) failed if x was an object of type
"expression".
* strptime() could overflow the allocated storage on the C stack
when the timezone had a non-standard format much longer than the
standard formats. (Part of PR#16328.)
* options(OutDec = s) now signals a warning (which will become an
error in the future) when s is not a string with exactly one
character, as that has been a documented requirement.
* prettyNum() gains a new option input.d.mark which together with
other changes, e.g., the default for decimal.mark, fixes some
format()ting variants with non-default getOption("OutDec") such
as in PR#16411.
* download.packages() failed for type equal to either "both" or
"binary". (Reported by Dan Tenenbaum.)
* The dendrogram method of labels() is much more efficient for
large dendrograms, now using rapply(). (Comment #15 of PR#15215)
* The "port" algorithm of nls() could give spurious errors.
(Reported by Radford Neal.)
* Reference classes that inherited from reference classes in
another package could invalidate methods of the inherited class.
Fixing this requires adding the ability for methods to be
"external", with the object supplied explicitly as the first
argument, named .self. See "Inter-Package Superclasses" in the
documentation.
* readBin() could fail on the SPARC architecture due to alignment
issues. (Reported by Radford Neal.)
* qt(*, df=Inf, ncp=.) now uses the natural qnorm() limit instead
of returning NaN. (PR#16475)
* Auto-printing of S3 and S4 values now searches for print() in the
base namespace and show() in the methods namespace instead of
searching the global environment.
* polym() gains a coefs = NULL argument and returns class "poly"
just like poly() which gets a new simple=FALSE option. They now
lead to correct predict()ions, e.g., on subsets of the original
data.
* rhyper(nn, <large>) now works correctly. (PR#16489)
* ttkimage() did not (and could not) work so was removed. Ditto for
tkimage.cget() and tkimage.configure(). Added two Ttk widgets and
missing subcommands for Tk's image command: ttkscale(),
ttkspinbox(), tkimage.delete(), tkimage.height(),
tkimage.inuse(), tkimage.type(), tkimage.types(),
tkimage.width(). (PR#15372, PR#16450)
* getClass("foo") now also returns a class definition when it is
found in the cache more than once.
Pkgsrc changes:
* Adjust PLIST.
* Bump version number.
* Depend on newer version of goffice0.10.
Upstream changes:
gnumeric 1.12.23:
Noteworthy news in this release:
* Fuzzed file hardening.
* Solver refactoring.
Special thanks to Juha Kylmänen from Oulu University Secure
Programming Group for running a large amount of fuzzing against
Gnumeric.
gnumeric 1.12.22:
Noteworthy news in this release:
* Graph fixes and improvements.
* Test suite improvements.
* ODF/XLSX import and export fixes.
* A schema for the ODF files we produce.
As part of our testing we check that the ODF, XLSX, and Gnumeric
files we produce are valid according to the relevant xml schema.
* For Gnumeric files we provide the schema.
* For XLSX there is an official schema which we use with a few
fixes so Excel can read our files. (We consider the format to
be defined by what XLSX writes.)
* For ODS the situation is more problematic. We appear to be the
first to release a schema for the ODS files we produce. That
is mildly shocking -- several spreadsheets have ODS as their
primary format, yet no-one seem to be validating the files they
produce! There is an official schema for the format without
extensions which is fine, except that no-one uses that format
because there are lots of fairly basic things that cannot be
expressed in the format without extensions.
Changse 1.2.6:
- Eigenvalues can be computed over larger range of base fields.
- Common denomiantor package handles now multivariate polynomials.
- More uniform break (error) handling.
Bug fixes, in particular:
- 'distribute' handles 'box' operator.
- Fixed problem with guessing over multivariate polynomilas.
- Fixed hashcode handling for Void in Aldor.
Changes in FriCAS 1.2.5:
- Fixed printing of scripted symbols.
- Fixed 'totalDegreeSorted' (affected Groebner bases).
- Fixed few problems with Hensel lifting (including SF bug 47).
- Fixed 'series' in UnivariateLaurentSeriesConstructor.
- Fixed 'order' in SparseUnivariatePowerSeries.
- Printing of series now respect 'showall' setting, cyclic
series are detected.
- Fixed problem with interpreter preferring Union to base type.
Changes in FriCAS 1.2.4:
- New cylindrical decomposition package.
- New GnuDraw package for plotting via gnuplot.
- Texmacs interface now handles Cork symbols.
- Added double precision versions of several special functions
(needed for plotting).
- Nopile mode for Spad is changed to be more convenient.
- 'stringMatch' is removed (was broken beyond repair).
Bug fixes, in particular:
- Fixed intepreter assignment to parts of nested aggregates
(issue 376).
- Fixed interpreter coercion from Equation to Boolean (issue 359).
- Fix printing of '\%i' in types (issue 132).
- Disabled incorrect shortcut during coercion (issue 29).
- Difference of intervals now agrees with definition as interval
operation.
- Avoid overwriting loop limit and increment.
- Fix a polynomial gcd failure due to bad reduction.
- Avoid mangling unevaluated algebraic integrals.
- Fix integration of unevaluated derivatives.
- Restore parser handling of '\\/' and '/\\'.
- Properly escape strings and symbols in TeXFormat.
Changes in FriCAS 1.2.3:
- Fixed pattern matching using '%i' in patterns.
- Fixed ')display op coerce'.
- Fixed ')version' command.
- Fixed crash when printing '%'.
- Fix a buffer overflow in HyperDoc.
- Fixed HyperDoc errors in 'Dependants' and 'Users'.
- HyperDoc browser better handles constructors with parameters.
Changes in FriCAS 1.2.2:
- Improvements to 'integrate': better handling of algebraic
integrals, new routine which handles some integrals contaning
'lambertW'.
- Improvements to 'limit', now Gruntz algorithm knows about
a few tractable functions.
- Smith form of sparse integer matrices is now much more
efficient.
- Generalized indexing for two dimensional arrays.
- Pile/nopile mode is now restored after ')read' or ')compile'.
Piling rules now accept some forms of multiline lists.
- Eliminated version checking in generated code. Note: this
change means that Spad code compiled by earlier FriCAS versions
will not run in FriCAS 1.2.2.
- Updated Aldor interface to work with free Aldor.
Bug fixes, in particular:
- Interpreter can now handle complicated mutually recursive
functions.
- Spad compiler should now correctly handle 'has' inside a function.
- Fixed derivatives of Whittaker functions.
Changes in FriCAS 1.2.1:
-- Support for building Mac OS application bundle.
Bug fixes, in particular:
-- fixed few cases of wrong or unevaluated integrals.
-- better zero test during limit computation avoids division
by zero.
-- fixed buffer overflow problems in view3D.
-- 'reducedSystem' on empty input returns basis of correct size.
Upstream changes:
# Version 0.3.1
* Actually export `dbIsValid()` :/
* `dbGetQuery()` uses `dbFetch()` in the default implementation.
# Version 0.3.0
## New and enhanced generics
* `dbIsValid()` returns a logical value describing whether a connection or
result set (or other object) is still valid. (#12).
* `dbQuoteString()` and `dbQuoteIdentifier()` to implement database specific
quoting mechanisms.
* `dbFetch()` added as alias to `fetch()` to provide consistent name.
Implementers should define methods for both `fetch()` and `dbFetch()` until
`fetch()` is deprecated in 2015. For now, the default method for `dbFetch()`
calls `fetch()`.
* `dbBegin()` begins a transaction (#17). If not supported, DB specific
methods should throw an error (as should `dbCommit()` and `dbRollback()`).
## New default methods
* `dbGetStatement()`, `dbGetRowsAffected()`, `dbHasCompleted()`, and
`dbGetRowCount()` gain default methods that extract the appropriate elements
from `dbGetInfo()`. This means that most drivers should no longer need to
implement these methods (#13).
* `dbGetQuery()` gains a default method for `DBIConnection` which uses
`dbSendQuery()`, `fetch()` and `dbClearResult()`.
## Deprecated features
* The following functions are soft-deprecated. They are going away,
and developers who use the DBI should begin preparing. The formal deprecation
process will begin in July 2015, where these function will emit warnings
on use.
* `fetch()` is replaced by `dbFetch()`.
* `make.db.names()`, `isSQLKeyword()` and `SQLKeywords()`: a black list
based approach is fundamentally flawed; instead quote strings and
identifiers with `dbQuoteIdentifier()` and `dbQuoteString()`.
* `dbGetDBIVersion()` is deprecated since it's now just a thin wrapper
around `packageVersion("DBI")`.
* `dbSetDataMappings()` (#9) and `dbCallProc()` (#7) are deprecated as no
implementations were ever provided.
## Other improvements
* `dbiCheckCompliance()` makes it easier for implementors to check that their
package is in compliance with the DBI specification.
* All examples now use the RSQLite package so that you can easily try out
the code samples (#4).
* `dbDriver()` gains a more effective search mechanism that doesn't rely on
packages being loaded (#1).
* DBI has been converted to use roxygen2 for documentation, and now most
functions have their own documentation files. I would love your feedback
on how we could make the documentation better!
This module provides fast functions and methods to convert between arbitrary
number bases from 2 (binary) thru 65535.
This module is pure Perl, has no external dependencies, and is backward
compatible with old versions of Perl 5.
* Use gmake to fix build.

v0.16.0 (March 22, 2015)
This is a major release from 0.15.2 and includes a small number of
API changes, several new features, enhancements, and performance
improvements along with a large number of bug fixes. We recommend that
all users upgrade to this version.
Highlights include:
DataFrame.assign method

v0.15.0 (October 18, 2014)
This is a major release from 0.14.1 and includes a small number of
API changes, several new features, enhancements, and performance
improvements along with a large number of bug fixes. We recommend that
all users upgrade to this version.
Warning
pandas >= 0.15.0 will no longer support compatibility with NumPy
versions < 1.7.0. If you want to use the latest versions of pandas,
please upgrade to NumPy >= 1.7.0 (GH7711)
Highlights include:
The Categorical type was integrated as a first-class pandas type
New scalar type Timedelta, and a new index type TimedeltaIndex
New datetimelike properties accessor .dt for Series, see
Datetimelike Properties
New DataFrame default display for df.info() to include memory
usage, see Memory Usage
read_csv will now by default ignore blank lines when parsing
API change in using Indexes in set operations
Enhancements in the handling of timezones
A lot of improvements to the rolling and expanding moment funtions
Internal refactoring of the Index class to no longer sub-class
ndarray, see Internal Refactoring
dropping support for PyTables less than version 3.0.0, and
numexpr less than version 2.1 (GH7990)
Split indexing documentation into Indexing and Selecting Data
and MultiIndex / Advanced Indexing
Split out string methods documentation into Working with Text Data
{perl>=5.16.6,p5-ExtUtils-ParseXS>=3.15}:../../devel/p5-ExtUtils-ParseXS
since pkgsrc enforces the newest perl version anyway, so they
should always pick perl, but sometimes (pkg_add) don't due to the
design of the {,} syntax.
No effective change for the above reason.

CHANGES IN R 3.2.1
NEW FEATURES
utf8ToInt() now checks that its input is valid UTF-8 and returns NA if it is not.
install.packages() now allows type = "both" with repos = NULL if it can infer the type of file.
nchar(x, *) and nzchar(x) gain a new argument keepNA which governs how the result for NAs in x is determined. For the R 3.2.x series, the default remains FALSE which is fully back compatible. From R 3.3.0, the default will change to keepNA = NA and you are advised to consider this for code portability.
news() more flexibly extracts dates from package ‘NEWS.Rd’ files.
lengths(x) now also works (trivially) for atomic x and hence can be used more generally as an efficient replacement of sapply(x, length) and similar.
The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.37, a bug-fix release.
diag() no longer duplicates a matrix when extracting its diagonal.
as.character.srcref() gains an argument to allow characters corresponding to a range of source references to be extracted.
BUG FIXES
acf() and ccf() now guarantee values strictly in [-1,1] (instead of sometimes very slightly outside). PR#15832.
as.integer("111111111111") now gives NA (with a warning) as it does for the corresponding numeric or negative number coercions. Further, as.integer(M + 0.1) now gives M (instead of NA) when M is the maximal representable integer.
On some platforms nchar(x, "c") and nchar(x, "w") would return values (possibly NA) for inputs which were declared to be UTF-8 but were not, or for invalid strings without a marked encoding in a multi-byte locale, rather than give an error. Additional checks have been added to mitigate this.
apply(a, M, function(u) c(X = ., Y = .)) again has dimnames containing "X" and "Y" (as in R < 3.2.0).
(Windows only) In some cases, the --clean option to R CMD INSTALL could fail. (PR#16178)
(Windows only) choose.files() would occasionally include characters from the result of an earlier call in the result of a later one. (PR#16270)
A change in RSiteSearch() in R 3.2.0 caused it to submit invalid URLs. (PR#16329)
Rscript and command line R silently ignored incomplete statements at the end of a script; now they are reported as parse errors. (PR#16350)
Parse data for very long strings was not stored. (PR#16354)
plotNode(), the workhorse of the plot method for "dendrogram"s is no longer recursive, thanks to Suharto Anggono, and hence also works for deeply nested dendrograms. (PR#15215)
The parser could overflow internally when given numbers in scientific format with extremely large exponents. (PR#16358)
If the CRAN mirror was not set, install.packages(type = "both") and related functions could repeatedly query the user for it. (Part of PR#16362)
The low-level functions .rowSums() etc. did not check the length of their argument, so could segfault. (PR#16367)
The quietly argument of library() is now correctly propagated from .getRequiredPackages2().
Under some circumstances using the internal PCRE when building R fron source would cause external libs such as -llzma to be omitted from the main link.
The .Primitive default methods of the logic operators, i.e., !, & and |, now give correct error messages when appropriate, e.g., for `&`(TRUE) or `!`(). (PR#16385)
cummax(x) now correctly propagates NAs also when x is of type integer and begins with an NA.
summaryRprof() could fail when the profile contained only two records. (PR#16395)
HTML vignettes opened using vignette() did not support links into the rest of the HTML help system. (Links worked properly when the vignette was opened using browseVignettes() or from within the help system.)
arima(*, xreg = .) (for d >= 1) computes estimated variances based on a the number of effective observations as in R version 3.0.1 and earlier. (PR#16278)
slotNames(.) is now correct for "signature" objects (mostly used internally in methods).
On some systems, the first string comparison after a locale change would result in NA.
