* msggrep: A '$' anchor in a regular expression now also matches the end of
the string, even if it does not end in a newline.
* Dependencies:
The libraries and programs are now linked with libunistring if this library
is already installed.
* Installation options:
The configure option --with-cvs is deprecated. The 'autopoint' program will
now use the 'git' program by default to compress its archive. If the
configure option --without-git is specified, 'autopoint' will not rely on
'git', but will instead rely on a locally installed a 3 MB large archive.
Changes 0.18:
* Runtime behaviour:
- On MacOS X and Windows systems, <libintl.h> now extends setlocale() and
newlocale() so that their determination of the default locale considers
the choice the user has made in the system control panels.
- On MacOS X systems, the gettext()/dgettext()/... functions now respect the
locale of the current thread, if a thread-specific locale has been set.
* PO file format:
There is a new field 'Language' in the header entry. It denotes the language
code (plus optional country code) for the PO file. This field can be used
by automated tools, such as spell checkers. It is expected to be more
reliable than looking at the file name or at the 'Language-Team' field in
the header entry.
msgmerge, msgcat, msgen have a new option --lang that allows to specify
this field. Additionally, msgmerge fills in this new field by looking at
the 'Language-Team' field (if the --lang option is not given).
* xgettext and PO file format:
For messages with plural forms, programmers can inform the translators
about the range of possible values of the numeric argument, like this:
/* xgettext: range: 0..15 */
This information 'range: 0..15' is stored in the PO file as a flag attached
to the message. Translators can produce better translations when they know
that the numeric argument is small.
* Colorized PO files:
msgattrib, msgcomm, msgconv, msgen, msgfilter, msggrep, msginit, msgmerge,
msgunfmt, msguniq, xgettext now have options --color and --style, like msgcat
has since version 0.17.
* msgmerge is up to 10 times faster when the PO and POT files are large.
This speedup was contributed by Ralf Wildenhues.
* msgcmp has a new option -N/--no-fuzzy-matching, like msgmerge has since
version 0.12.
* msgfilter now sets environment variables during the invocation of the
filter, indicating the msgid and location of the messge being processed.
* xgettext now can extract plural forms from Qt 4 programs. The recommended
xgettext command-line options for this case are:
--qt --keyword=tr:1,1t --keyword=tr:1,2c,2t --keyword=tr:1,1,2c,3t
* xgettext --language=GCC-source now recognizes also the format strings
used in the Fortran front-end of the GCC compiler, and marks them as
'gfc-internal-format'.
* autopoint can now be used to update several PO directories all together.
set OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH to find any libtool scripts deeper in the WRKSRC
tree unless they're named something other than "libtool".
SHLIBTOOL_OVERRIDE generally doesn't need to be specified either -- just
define it to the empty list and shlibtool-override will look for libtool
scripts.
msgfmt, then it should set the following in the package Makefile:
USE_TOOLS+= msgfmt
To deal with message files that use the "msgid_plural" statement,
which isn't supported in NetBSD<=3.x and also in gettext<=0.10.35, we
determine if the built-in "msgfmt" is sufficiently new enough to
understand "msgid_plural". If it isn't, then we use the msgfmt.sh
script to transform the msgid_plural statements to an equivalent
construct that's understood by older msgfmt tools.
The msgfmt.sh script is a straightforward translation of the original
perl script msgfmt.pl script by Julio M. Merino Vidal into shell and
awk, which are more lightweight dependencies than perl.
We remove the USE_MSGFMT_PLURALS bits in gettext-lib/builtin.mk as they
are made obsolete by the new code in mk/tools/msgfmt.mk.
BUILD_USE_MSGFMT is still supported but will be removed in a separate
commit.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
including support for relocable programs, Qt support,
separation of the PO processing functions into a separate
library and more.
Reorganise the gettext infrastructure by splitting of the
tools into devel/gettext-tools, which will be used by the tools
framework. The remaining devel/gettext package contains
gettextize and autopoint aka the infrastructure to embbed gettext
into a package.
Due to the ABI and API changes, a recursive revision bump will
follow.
Take blaim by receiving the maintainer hat.
With input from jlam@, reed@ and wiz@.
are identical (e.g., msgid == msgid_plural) by ignoring the duplicates.
In fact, this is a rewrite of the script, since I couldn't understand the
old one (ew).
Also change the way we use it to only pull it in the build if the real
msgfmt does not support plurals (i.e., it's older than 0.10.36).
Fixes PR pkg/30596 and PR pkg/30938 (both related to epiphany).
It also fixes the build of evolution-data-server and probably others.
If HAVE_POSIX_SPAWN is defined, code is compiled in that requires environ
to be declared. Solaris doesn't declare environ, so declare it (guarded by
HAVE_ENVIRON_DECL) in the files in which it is used.
Solaris 10 systems HAVE_POSIX_SPAWN, whereas previous versions do not.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
USE_GNU_GETTEXT fix: afflicted systems couldn't compile gettext at all.
But, to be pedantic and fix possible unforeseen problems on systems where
the previous version *was* successfully compiling, bump PKGREVISION anyway.
by our native libintl. While it is not implemented, this allows us to build
programs against the native libintl, loosing very few functionality (some
translations of plural messages on few languages), and avoiding runtime
conflicts between native libintl and the gnu one (coming from the gettext
package).
Packages including .po files with uses of msgid_plural should define the
USE_MSGFMT_PLURALS variable to 'yes', so that the msgfmt wrapper is used.
(Do not use it when not really needed, as it will pull in perl5 as a build
dependancy).
undetected so that the Java classes aren't built and installed. The
gettext Java classes should go into a separate package so that all OSes
may install them, not just Solaris.
