Changes:
1.7.3.2
-------
corrections:
- SIGSEGV and other signals could lead to a 100% CPU loop
- Failing name resolution could lead to SIGSEGV
Thanks to Max for reporting this issue.
- Include <stddef.h> for ptrdiff_t
Thanks to Jeroen Roovers for reporting this issue.
- Building with --disable-sycls failed due to missing sslcls.h defines
Socat hung when configured with --disable-sycls.
- Some minor corrections with includes etc.
- Option so-reuseport did not work. Thanks to Some Raghavendra Prabhu
for sending a patch.
- Programs invoked with EXEC, nofork, and -u or -U had stdin and stdout
incorrectly assigned
Test: EXEC_NOFORK_UNIDIR
Thanks to David Reiss for reporting this problem.
- Socat exited with status 0 even when a program invoked with SYSTEM or
EXEC failed.
Tests: SYSTEM_RC EXEC_RC
Issue reported by Felix Winkelmann.
- AddressSanitizer reported a few buffer overflows (false positives).
Nevertheless fixed Socat source.
Issue reported by Hanno Böck.
- Socat did not use option ipv6-join-group.
Test: USE_IPV6_JOIN_GROUP
Thanks to Linux Lüssing for sending a patch.
- UDP-LISTEN did not honor the max-children option.
Test: UDP4MAXCHILDREN UDP6MAXCHILDREN
Thanks to Leander Berwers for reporting this issue.
- Options so-rcvtimeo and so-sndtimeo do not work with poll()/select()
and therefore were useless.
Thanks to Steve Borenstein for reporting this issue.
- Option dhparam was documented as dhparams. Added the alias name
dhparams to fix this.
Thanks to Alexander Neumann for sending a patch.
- Options shut-down and shut-close did not work.
Thanks to Stefan Schimanski for providing a patch.
- There was a bug in printing readline log message caused by a misleading
indentation.
Thanks to Paul Wouters for reporting.
- The internal vsnprintf_r function looped or crashed on size parameter
with hexadecimal output.
- Ignore exit code of child process when it was killed by master due to
EOF
- Corrected byte order on read of IPV6_TCLASS value from ancillary
message
- Fixed type of the bool element in options. This had bug caused failures
e.g. of ignoreeof on big-endian systems when bool was not based on int.
- On systems with predefined bool type whose size differs from int some
IPv6 and TCP options (per setsockopt()) failed.
- Length of integral data in ancillary messages varies (TOS: 1 byte,
TTL: 4 bytes), the old implementation failed for TTL on big-endian
hosts.
- Fixed an issue in options processing: TUN and DNS flags had failed on
big-endian systems and the NO- forms had probable never worked.
porting:
- Type conflict between int and sig_atomic_t between declaration and
definition of diag_immediate_type and diag_immediate_exit broke
compilation on FreeBSD 10.1 with clang. Thanks to Emanuel Haupt for
reporting this bug.
- Socat failed to compile on platforms with OpenSSL without
DTLSv1_client_method or DTLSv1_server_method.
Thanks to Simon Matter for sending a patch.
- NuttX OS headers do not provide struct ip, thus socat did not compile.
Made struct ip subject to configure.
Thanks to SP for reporting this issue.
- Socat failed to compile with OpenSSL version 1.0.2d where
SSLv3_server_method and SSLv3_client_method are no longer defined.
Thanks to Mischa ter Smitten for reporting this issue and providing
a patch.
- configure checked for OpenSSL EC_KEY assuming it is a define but it
is a type, thus OpenSSL ECDHE ciphers failed even on Linux.
Thanks to Andrey Arapov for reporting this bug.
- Changes to make socat compile with OpenSSL 1.1.
Thanks to Sebastian Andrzej Siewior e.a. from the Debian team for
providing the base patch.

* New test dependency: flake8-import-order.
0.9.1
=====
released 2017-01-25
* FIX detecting not understood timezone information failed on python 3.6, this may lead to
erroneous offsets in start and end times for those events, as those datetimes
were treated as if they were in the system's local time, not as if they are in
the (possibly) configured default_timezone.
* python 3.6 is now officially supported
0.9.0
=====
released 2017-01-24
Dependency Changes
------------------
* vdirsyncer isn't a hard dependency any more
Bug Fixes
---------
* fixed various bugs in `configure`
* fix bug in `new` that surfaces when date(time)format does contain a year
* fix bug in `import` that allows importing into read-only and/or non-default calendar
* fix how color discovered in calendars
Backwards Incompatibilities
---------------------------
* calendar path is now a glob without recursion for discover, if your calendars
are no longer found, please consult the documentation (Taylor Money)
* `at` command now works like `list` with a timedelta of `0m`, this means that
`at` will no longer print events that end at exactly the time asked for
(Taylor Money)
* renamed `agenda` to `list` (Taylor Money)
* removed `days` configuration option in favor of `timedelta`, see
documentation for details (Taylor Money)
* configuration file path $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/khal/config is now supported and
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/khal/khal.conf deprecated
* ikhal: introduction of three different new frame styles, new allowed values for
`[view] frame` are `False`, `width`, `color`, `top` (with default `False`),
`True` isn't allowed any more, please provide feedback over the usual channels
if and which of those you consider useful as some of those might be removed in
future releases (Christian Geier)
* removed configuration variable `encoding` (in section [locale]), the correct
locale should now be figured out automatically (Markus Unterwaditzer)
* events that start and end at the same time are now displayed as if their
duration was one hour instead of one day (Guilhem Saurel)
Enhancements
------------
* (nearly) all commands allow formatting of how events are printed with
`--format`, also see the new configuration options `event_format`,
`agenda_event_format`, `agenda_day_format` (Taylor Money)
* support for categories (and add `-g` flag for `khal new`) (Pierre David)
* search results are now sorted by start date (Taylor Money)
* added command `edit`, which also allows deletion of events (Taylor Money)
* `new` has interactive option (Taylor Money)
* `import` can now import multiple files at once (Christian Geier)
ikhal
-----
* BUGFIX no more crashing if invalid date is entered and mini-calendar displayed
* make keybinding for quitting configurable, defaults to *q* and *Q*, escape
only backtracks to last pane but doesn't exit khal anymore (Christian Geier)
* default keybinding changed: `tab` no longer shows details of focused events
and does not open the event editor either (Christian Geier)
* right column changed, it will now show as many days/events as fit, if users move
to another date (while the event column is in focus), that date should be
highlighted in the calendar (Christian Geier)
* cursor indicates which element is selected
0.6.1 - 2017-01-26
``````````````````
* Fix signature for ``PathGraphingAstVisitor.default`` to match the signature
for ``ASTVisitor``

``````````````````
* Add support for Python 3.6
* Fix handling for missing statement types
3.0.6 (2017-01-29)
=======================
* pytest no longer generates ``PendingDeprecationWarning`` from its own operations, which was introduced by mistake in version ``3.0.5`` (`#2118`_).
Thanks to `@nicoddemus`_ for the report and `@RonnyPfannschmidt`_ for the PR.
* pytest no longer recognizes coroutine functions as yield tests (`#2129`_).
Thanks to `@malinoff`_ for the PR.
* Plugins loaded by the ``PYTEST_PLUGINS`` environment variable are now automatically
considered for assertion rewriting (`#2185`_).
Thanks `@nicoddemus`_ for the PR.
* Improve error message when pytest.warns fails (`#2150`_). The type(s) of the
expected warnings and the list of caught warnings is added to the
error message. Thanks `@lesteve`_ for the PR.
* Fix ``pytester`` internal plugin to work correctly with latest versions of
``zope.interface`` (`#1989`_). Thanks `@nicoddemus`_ for the PR.
* Assert statements of the ``pytester`` plugin again benefit from assertion rewriting (`#1920`_).
Thanks `@RonnyPfannschmidt`_ for the report and `@nicoddemus`_ for the PR.
* Specifying tests with colons like ``test_foo.py::test_bar`` for tests in
subdirectories with ini configuration files now uses the correct ini file
(`#2148`_). Thanks `@pelme`_.
* Fail ``testdir.runpytest().assert_outcomes()`` explicitly if the pytest
terminal output it relies on is missing. Thanks to `@eli-b`_ for the PR.

2017-02-04 7.0.4-7 Cristy <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
* Release ImageMagick version 7.0.4-7, GIT revision 19513:5783e57:20170204.
2017-01-28 7.0.4-7 Cristy <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
* Sanitize comments that include braces for the MIFF image format (reference
https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/issues/368).
2017-01-27 7.0.4-7 Glenn Randers-Pehrson <glennrp@image...>
* coders/png.c: Added support for a proposed new PNG chunk
(zxIf, read-only) that is currently being discussed on the
png-mng-misc at lists.sourceforge.net mailing list. Enable
exIf and zxIf with CPPFLAGS="-DexIf_SUPPORTED -DxzIf_SUPPORTED".
If exIf is enabled, only the uncompressed exIF chunk will be
written and the hex-encoded zTXt chunk containing the raw Exif
profile won't be written.
2017-01-27 7.0.4-6 Cristy <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
* Release ImageMagick version 7.0.4-6, GIT revision 19442:4747de9:20170127.
2017-01-27 7.0.4-6 Cristy <quetzlzacatenango@image...>
* Uninitialized data in MAT image format (reference
https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/issues/362).
* Properly auto-fit caption (reference
https://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=30887).
* Correction to composite Over operator (reference
https://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=31282).

* Renamed read_vpag_chunk_callback() function to png_user_chunk_callback()
in coders/png.c
* Implemented a private PNG caNv (canvas) chunk for remembering the
original dimensions and offsets when an image is cropped. Previously
we used the oFFs and vpAg chunks for this purpose, but this had potential
conflicts with other applications that also use the oFFs chunk.
* coders/png.c: Added support for a proposed new PNG chunk (exIf
read-write, eXIf read-only) that is currently being discussed on the
png-mng-misc at lists.sourceforge.net mailing list.
2017-01-22 7.0.4-6 Dirk Lemstra <dirk@lem.....org>
* Replaced CoderSeekableStreamFlag with CoderDecoderSeekableStreamFlag and
CoderEncoderSeekableStreamFlag.
MAME 0.182
As we approach the 20th anniversary of the first MAME release,
we've got a really exciting update for you. There's so much awesome
stuff in this month's release that there's no way we can possibly
cover it all here. MAME is a team effort, and we'd like to thank
everyone who's contributed towards making this release as awesome
as we think it is. One very exciting addition is support for another
version of the East German Poly-Play system, with German and Czech
ROM sets providing ten games, six of which are new. Protection on
Future Flash/Laser Base has finally been emulated, so you can take
a look at Hoei's take on Missile Command. A dump of the damaged
microcontroller (MCU) from Tatakae! Big Fighter makes this title
and Sky Robo finally playable. Another eagerly awaited addition is
the Hot-B prototype Hangzo.
Serial ports have been hooked up on Race Drivin' allowing you to
link two MAME instances over TCP, reproducing the multi-player
experience with linked cabinets. To do this, use a null modem slot
device and configure it for 38,400 Baud, 8 data bits, even parity,
and 1 stop bit. It would also be possible to connect a MAME instance
to a real board set by forwarding the connection to a serial port
on the host system.
We've received a contributed PortAudio output module and integrated
it in this release. This provides a cross-platform low latency
audio output solution. Performance should be similar to Steinberg
ASIO on Windows 7 or later without the licensing issues, and better
than SDL audio on Linux. It can be enabled by setting the sound
parameter to portaudio on the command line or in an ini file. Of
course, all the other audio output modules are still supported, so
if you're happy with your current setup you don't have to change
anything.
Although we haven't added a huge number of new microcontroller
(MCU) dumps in this release, substantial work has gone into improving
systems where we already have dumps but the emulation is lacking.
MCU emulation was added to Puzznic, Joshi Volleyball and Gladiator.
For Puzznic, this places player data at the correct location in
RAM and supplies the game with a pseudo-random number sequence
rather than a stream of zeros. Joshi Volleyball now behaves better
in service mode, allowing coins and inputs to be tested. Gladiator
now honours the coinage DIP switches. The MC68705 core has had a
complete overhaul, and all drivers using it have been reviewed.
This fixes lots of subtle issues: for example Change Lanes will
now skip the full memory tests if configured to ignore them in DIP
switches, timings have improved in Arkanoid, and the Apple II mouse
card is slightly improved. We now emulate the '705 family well
enough to support stand-alone MCU programmer boards.
Other improvements include working sound in Pole Position bootlegs,
improved video in Winning Run, preliminary banked 256 colour mode
for the NEC PC-9821, kana input on the Sharp X1, a VME bus system
with preliminary support for the miniFORCE 2P21 chassis, additional
Aristocrat Mark 5 peripheral emulation allowing non-US games to
boot, Corvus hard disks for the DEC Rainbow 100, preliminary work
on Atari Stunt Cycle (displays the playfield), fixes for the Aussie
Byte and Otrona Attaché, and support for octal and binary numbers
in debugger expressions.
