- updated (NDS) fixed issue that caused ROMs with an incorrect SNES backup unit
header to be detected as Nintendo DS ROM dumps (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) MinGW and Visual C++ ports can display colors again for --dbuh
(instead of ANSI escape sequences) (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) fixed edge case in code of --dbuh for headered ROMs that are
not recognised as being for a specific backup unit (by dbjh)
- updated (all) upgraded unzip to version 1.01e. Did the same for libdiscmage
(by dbjh)
- updated (N64) fixed problem in Cygwin port of libcd64 with loading I/O
drivers (by dbjh)
- updated (all) fixed --hfind, --hfindr, --dfind and --dfindr, which I broke in

Improved handling of non-printable characters (by dbjh)
2.1.0
- added (SNES) preliminary support for native Super UFO Pro 8 SD file format.
Use --ufosd to convert a file to Super UFO Pro 8 SD format. More information is
required for a full implementation and any help will be appreciated (by dbjh;
thanks to cage for his help)
- added (SNES) --ufosds convert *.srm (SRAM) file to Super UFO Pro 8 SD (by
dbjh; thanks to cage for the SRAM files)
- updated (SNES) added crack for Diddy's Kong Quest & Dixie Kong's Double
Trouble that makes those games run properly on the Super Flash. It has been
added to snescopy.txt, not to the internal cracks, because it may interfere
with the already present cracks of those games. Apply it with --pattern (by
dbjh, based on post by Tomy of ToToTEK on ToToTEK's Help & Support Forum)
- updated (all) fixed --xreset to really remove power from all programmable
pins (by dbjh)
- added (all) support for EPP when using a PCIe parallel port card that has its
ECP Extended Control register at a non-standard offset, i.e., most PCIe
parallel port cards. Specify the offset in the configuration file by changing
the line that starts with ecr_offset=. See the FAQ (question 53 and 54) for a
more elaborate explanation (by dbjh)
- updated (all) fixed several mistakes in how different pieces of code tried to
enable EPP or simply relied on a BIOS to have configured it right. As a result
the meaning of the switches --xfalm, --xgbxm and --xplm has been reversed (the
associated options use EPP mode by default and use SPP as fallback). Another
consequence is that UserPort can no longer be used as I/O driver (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) improved --id to the point where its help text can be shown
(by dbjh)
- updated (SNES & Genesis) fixed several edge cases in MGD splitting code (by
dbjh)

100 Mbit (by dbjh)
- updated (all) made --pattern more verbose when -v is specified (by dbjh)
- updated (GBA) made --crp more verbose when -v is specified (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) made -k, -f & -l more verbose when -v is specified (by dbjh)
- updated (Genesis & PCE) made -f more verbose when -v is specified (by dbjh)
- updated (all) fixed bug in code of --pattern that caused changes to be
omitted in the output file (by dbjh)
- added (SNES & Genesis) --smgh split ROM for MGH. Its main purpose is
splitting SNES HiROM games in MGH format. Splitting is required to make them
run with an MGH (by dbjh, thanks to Mystic_Merlin for information and testing)
- added (SNES & Genesis) --mgh convert to Magic Game Hunter/MGH format. For
SNES this does the same as --gd3, except that the resulting file will have an
MGH name and no header. For Genesis this does something very similar to --mgd,
but the resulting file will have an MGH name. For both consoles an MGH name
file will be produced (by dbjh, thanks to Mystic_Merlin for information and
testing)
- updated (NES, SNES, Genesis & NeoGeo Pocket) fixed --ns (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) fixed bug in checksum calculation code if the cartridge size
byte of the internal header is 0 (by dbjh, thanks to Mystic_Merlin for
providing the PD ROM that triggered the bug)
- updated (SNES) added support for a few more cartridge configurations to
--ufosd. Still more information is needed, specifically about the header of 8
Mbit HiROMs (by dbjh, thanks to Mystic_Merlin for sending the output of --dbuh
for dumps made with his UFO SD)
- updated (SNES) --ufosd fixes the checksum and pads the output to a valid size
for the UFO SD (by dbjh, thanks to Mystic_Merlin for information and testing)
- added (N64) support for Nintendo 64 DAT files containing CRC32 values of ROMs
in Mr. Backup Z64 format, like what DAT-o-MATIC produces. It can be turned on
by setting the property variable n64_dat_v64 to 0. See the FAQ question 57 (by
dbjh)
- updated (all) fixed double suffix issue when using DAT-o-MATIC DAT files (by
dbjh; thanks to eadmaster for reporting the issue)
- updated (SNES) completed --ufosd by adding support for 8 Mbit HiROM (by dbjh,
thanks to Mystic_Merlin and cage for the information)

* Make use of Qt 5.10 API to adopt permission model after Android 6.0.
(Qt 5.10 is needed to build for Android)
This switch is meant to be used by packages requiring an implementation of the
former libusb (as in devel/libusb). The original implementation can be
chosen by setting LIBUSB_TYPE to "native".
The alternative implementation libusb-compat (as in devel/libusb-compat) wraps
libusb1 (in devel/libusb1). This implementation can be chosen by setting
LIBUSB_TYPE to "compat". On NetBSD, it has the advantage of not requiring root
privileges to locate and use USB devices without a kernel driver.
This second part switches packages using libusb to this framework. It does not
change compilation options or dependencies at this point.
Compile-tested on most packages affected and available on NetBSD/amd64.
In the do-install target, deal with the spaces in the directory
name "Visual Studio Projects" instead of printing the message
"install: Visual: stat: No such file or directory" and failing to
install one of the .txt files.

* Set nonblocking I/O for UDP sockets

* Fix build on FreeBSD
* NM-16ESW: process packets even if MAC address table is full. Fixes#72.
The actual fix as been done by "pkglint -F */*/buildlink3.mk", and was
reviewed manually.
There are some .include lines that still are indented with zero spaces
although the surrounding .if is indented. This is existing practice.
qemu incorrectly checks for the presence of posix_memalign() by
testing whether the preprocessor symbol _POSIX_C_SOURCE is defined.
This causes qemu to use valloc() instead of posix_memalign() on NetBSD,
even on versions where posix_memalign() is supported, wasting
memory when the required alignment is smaller than a page. Fix this
by checking for posix_memalign() support in the configure script.
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
SDL2 check in makefile does not work propelry so it incorrectly fallbacks
to using SDL_ttf without buildlink3.
XXX: too many SDL related fixes in upstream
Also rename a patch file for a future maintainability.
Bump PKGREVISION.

pkgsrc changes
==============
Remove merged patches, mostly for SmartOS. There are more to go and there
is a call for volunteers to step in as a maintainer and help to upstream the
remaining ones.
SmartOS as host support is scheduled to be removed in the next major version
of qemu.
upstream changes

If anyone installed it before default-PLIST-checks on SmartOS he would be
missing the hercifc binary, rather than failing to build, so this would
be a different package.
they were something nix-y. This means we will build hercifc on
SmartOS, which is failing due to a PLIST mismatch.
Now we don't need to add a case for dragonfly now, so remove that
hunk.
Describe patch.
This should be the last part of the renaming operation for print/cups to
print/cups-base.
Rationale: packages depending on CUPS but not relying on a functional
printing setup only need to depend on print/cups-base (equivalent to the
former print/cups). The new print/cups now depends on print/cups-base
and on print/cups-filters, thus directly providing a functional printing
setup. This bump reflects this change of dependency.
As discussed on tech-pkg@
This is with the notable exception of meta-pkgs/desktop-gnome, which I
believe implies a fully functional cups.
This is still missing revision bumps - I'll be right there (first time I
am doing this on so many packages at a time).
As discussed on tech-pkg@
Exclude from roms/u-boot/scripts/Kconfig to fix extraction on case-insensitive
filesystems (e.g. Mac OS), there is a conflict between kconfig directory and
Kconfig file. The file is not used for anything, u-boot sources
are included just to comply with upstream licence. Hopefully u-boot will
be fixed, and next qemu version updated to include the fixed version.
Bumped PKGREVISION just in case nevertheless.
