Release 6.7 04-Jul-06
---------------------
The main additions to this release are the ability to use the same name for
multiple sets of parentheses, and support for CRLF line endings in both the
library and pcregrep (and in pcretest for testing).
Thanks to Ian Taylor, the stack usage for many kinds of pattern has been
significantly reduced for certain subject strings.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
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.
after the OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH mechanism was introduced. Ensure that
the config.* scripts under ${WRKSRC} are found and overridden by
setting OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH to 3.
* Modify xmkmf so that we can override the imake command invoked via an
environment variable IMAKE_CMD.
* Drop the nbitools/buildlink3.mk file as it's no longer used by either
canna or sj3 for package builds.
Bump the PKGREVISION to 4.
SDL 1.2.11 is a minor bug fix release.
Unix Notes
Dynamic X11 loading is only enabled with gcc 4 supporting -fvisibility=hidden. This fixes crashes related to symbol collisions, and allows building on Solaris and IRIX.
Fixed building SDL with Xinerama disabled.
Fixed DRI OpenGL library loading, using RTLD_GLOBAL in dlopen().
Added pkgconfig configuration support.
Mac OS X Notes
The Quartz video driver supports 32x32 cursors on Mac OS X 10.3 and above.
* Major changes in Autoconf 2.60
Released 2006-06-23, by Ralf Wildenhues.
** Autoconf no longer depends on whether m4wrap is FIFO (as Posix requires)
or LIFO (as in GNU M4 1.4.x). GNU M4 2.0 is expected to conform to Posix
here, so m4wrap/m4_wrap users should no longer depend on LIFO behavior.
** Provide a way to turn off warnings about the changed directory variables.
* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59d
Released 2006-06-05, by Ralf Wildenhues.
** GNU make now recommended for VPATH builds
INSTALL now suggests VPATH builds (e.g., "sh ../srcdir/configure")
only if you use GNU make. In practice, other 'make' implementations
have too many subtle incompatibilities in their support for VPATH.
Many packages (including Autoconf itself) are portable to other
'make' implementations, but some packages are not, and recommending
GNU make keeps the installation instructions simpler.
** Even more safety checks for the new Directory variables:
Warn about suspicious `${datarootdir}' found in config files output.
** AC_TRY_COMMAND, AC_TRY_EVAL, ac_config_guess, ac_config_sub, ac_configure
These never-documented macros and variables have been marked with
comments saying that they may be removed in a future release,
because their use can lead to unintended code being executed.
If you need functionality that only these macros or variables
currently supply, please write bug-autoconf@gnu.org.
** AC_SUBST, AC_DEFINE
Literal arguments to these are passed to m4_pattern_allow now.
** AC_PROG_CC_STDC
Passing 'ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc=no' to 'configure' now sets ac_cv_prog_cc_c99
and ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 to 'no' as well, for backward compatibility with
obsolete K&R tests in the Automake test suite.
** AC_PROG_CXX_C_O
New macro.
** AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
New macro.
** AS_MKDIR_P
Now more robust with special characters in file names, or when
multiple processes create the same directory at the same time.
** Obsolescent macros
The documentation now says that the following macros are obsolescent:
they test for problems that are so old that they are no longer of
practical importance on current systems.
AC_C_BACKSLASH_A AC_FUNC_MEMCMP AC_HEADER_DIRENT
AC_C_CONST AC_FUNC_SELECT_ARGTYPES AC_HEADER_STAT
AC_C_PROTOTYPES AC_FUNC_SETPGRP AC_HEADER_STDC
AC_C_STRINGIZE AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT
AC_C_VOLATILE AC_FUNC_STAT AC_HEADER_TIME
AC_FUNC_CLOSEDIR_VOID AC_FUNC_STRFTIME AC_ISC_POSIX
AC_FUNC_GETPGRP AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL
AC_FUNC_LSTAT AC_FUNC_VPRINTF AC_STRUCT_TM
New programs need not use these macros. We have no current plans to
remove them.
** autoreconf
For compatibility with future Libtool 2.0, autoreconf will invoke
libtoolize with the option `--ltdl' now, if LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR is
used.
* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59c
Released 2006-04-12, by Ralf Wildenhues.
** The configure command now redirects standard input from /dev/null,
to help avoid problems with subsidiary commands that might mistakenly
read standard input. AS_ORIGINAL_STDIN_FD points to the original
standard input before this redirection, if you really want configure to
read from standard input.
** Directory variables adjusted to recent changes in the GNU Coding Standards.
The following directory variables are new:
datarootdir read-only architecture-independent data root [PREFIX/share]
localedir locale-specific message catalogs [DATAROOTDIR/locale]
docdir documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/PACKAGE]
htmldir html documentation [DOCDIR]
dvidir dvi documentation [DOCDIR]
pdfdir pdf documentation [DOCDIR]
psdir ps documentation [DOCDIR]
The following variables have new default values:
datadir read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR]
infodir info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info]
mandir man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
This means that if you use any of `@datadir@', `@infodir@', or
`@mandir@' in a file, you will have to ensure `${datarootdir}' is
defined in this file. As a temporary measure, if any of those are
found but no mention of `datarootdir', the substitutions will be
replaced with values that do not contain `${datarootdir}', and a
warning will be issued.
** @top_builddir@ is now a dir name: it is always nonempty and doesn't have
a trailing slash. Similar change will be made to ac_top_builddir in a
future release; the old style value, which matches (../)*, is (and will
continue to be) available as ac_top_build_prefix.
** AC_C_TYPEOF
New macro to check for support of 'typeof' syntax a la GNU C.
** AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE, AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE
New "once-only" variants of commonly-used macros, to make 'configure'
smaller and faster in common cases.
** AC_FUNC_STRTOLD
New macro to check for strtold with C99 semantics.
** AC_HEADER_ASSERT
New macro that lets builder disable assertions at 'configure'-time.
** AC_PATH_X
Now checks for X11/Xlib.h and XrmInitialize (X proper) rather than
X11/Intrinsic.h and XtMalloc (Xt).
** AC_PRESERVE_HELP_ORDER
New macro that causes `configure' to display help strings for AC_ARG_ENABLE
and AC_ARG_WITH arguments in one region, in the order defined. The default
behavior is to group options of each classes separately.
** AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX
No longer automatically arrange to declare the 'exit' function of C,
when a C++ compiler is used. Standard Autoconf macros no longer use
'exit', so this is no longer an issue for them. If you use C++, and
want to call 'exit', you'll have to arrange for its declaration
yourself. But we now suggest you return from 'main' instead.
** AC_PROG_CC_C89, AC_PROG_CC_C99
New macros for ISO C99 support. AC_PROG_CC_C89 and AC_PROG_CC_C99
check for ANSI C89 and ISO C99 support respectively.
** AC_PROG_CC_STDC
Has been unobsoleted, and will check if the compiler supports ISO
C99, falling back to ANSI C89 if not. ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc is
retained for backwards compatibility, assuming the value of
ac_cv_prog_cc_c99 or ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 (whichever is valid, in
that order).
** AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_INO, AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE
New macros for checking commonly-used members of struct dirent.
** AC_SUBST
The substituted value can now contain newlines.
** AC_SUBST_FILE
The substitution now occurs only when @variable@ is on a line by itself,
optionally surrounded by spaces and tabs. The whole line is replaced.
** AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE, AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE_WIDER
New macros to check for long double, and whether it is wider than double.
The old macro AC_C_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE has been marked as obsolete;
applications should switch to the new macro.
** AC_TYPE_INT8_T, AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T, AC_TYPE_INT64_T,
AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_INTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT, AC_TYPE_SSIZE_T,
AC_TYPE_UINT8_T, AC_TYPE_UINT16_T, AC_TYPE_UINT32_T, AC_TYPE_UINT64_T,
AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T, AC_TYPE_UINTPTR_T, AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT
New macros to check for C99 and POSIX types.
** AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
New macro to enable extensions to Posix.
** AH_HEADER
New macro which is defined to the name of the first declared config header
or undefined if no config headers have been declared yet.
** AS_HELP_STRING
The macro correctly handles quadrigraphs now.
** AS_BOURNE_COMPATIBLE, AS_SHELL_SANITIZE, AS_CASE
These macros are new or published now.
** AT_COPYRIGHT
New macro for copyright notices in testsuite files.
** ALLOCA, LIBOBJS, LTLIBOBJS
Object names added to these variables are now prefixed with `${LIBOBJDIR}',
as in `${LIBOBJDIR}alloca.o'. LIBOBJDIR is meant to be defined from
`Makefile.in' in case the object files lie in a different directory.
The LIBOBJDIR feature is experimental.
** autoreconf
Supports --no-recursive now.
** New macros to support Erlang/OTP.
New macros for configuring paths to Erlang tools and libraries:
AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERLC, AC_ERLANG_PATH_ERL,
AC_ERLANG_NEED_ERL, AC_ERLANG_CHECK_LIB, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_ROOT_DIR,
AC_ERLANG_SUBST_LIB_DIR.
New macros for configuring installation of Erlang libraries:
AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_DIR, AC_ERLANG_SUBST_INSTALL_LIB_SUBDIR.
** The manual now mentions Gnulib more prominently.
** New macros to support Objective C.
AC_PROG_OBJC, AC_PROG_OBJCPP.
* Major changes in Autoconf 2.59b
Released 2004-08-20, by Paul Eggert.
** AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF
New macro that computes the default alignment of a type.
** AC_CHECK_TOOL, AC_PATH_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TOOLS
When cross-compiling, these macros will give a warning if the tool
is not prefixed. In the future, unprefixed cross tools will not
be detected; please consult the info documentation for information
about the reason of this change.
** AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOL, AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL, AC_CHECK_TARGET_TOOLS
New macros that detect programs whose name is prefixed with the
target type, if the build type and target type are different.
** AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE
New trace macro that declares expected auxiliary files.
** AC_PROG_GREP
New macro that tests for a grep program that accepts as a long a line
as possible.
** AC_PROG_EGREP, AC_PROG_FGREP
These macros now require AC_PROG_GREP, and try EGREP="$GREP -E" and
FGREP="$GREP -F" respectively if possible, or else run a path search for
a program that accepts as long a line as possible.
** AC_PROG_SED
New macro that tests for a sed program that truncates as few characters
as possible.

The configure script needs to use the c++ compiler to correctly setup the
glibconfig.h for handling of VARARGS when being included from c++ programs,
otherwise builds can fail. eg. when using SunWorkshop CC on Solaris and
compiling arts.
Bump PKGREVISION.
native Solaris diff which is not good enough for use in rcs.
Since configure picks up DIFF from the environment, patch-aa and patch-ab
became unnecessary.
Thanks to a patch by Stefan Pfetzing (slightly modified by me) this fixes
his PR pkg/33558.
directly. This didn't work because dlopen uses the rpath of the foremost
binary (not libSDL's one); therefore, some libraries could not be found.
For example, qemu was not working at all because it only has PREFIX in
its rpath, not X11PREFIX, and so libSDL could not load libX11 resulting
in a very strange error message.
There seem to be other problems such as the aalib video output crashing
or the wscons output not working, but these aren't very important (maybe
the problems have already gone away with this fix, I don't know). Anyway,
I think the former is fixed in 1.2.11.
Bump PKGREVISION to 1.
Changes:
- Security fix for extract_chmLib. Pathnames containing a ".." element
will not be extracted. There doesn't seem to be a legitimate reason
to use ".." as a path element in a chm file.
http://secunia.com/advisories/20734/
- Fix for reading some chm files. Running over a large directory of chm
files, about 1% of them turned out to be unreadable. This resulted
from an incomplete understanding of one of the header fields
(index_root). Apparently, this can take negative values other than -1.
0.27 release. Minor bug fixes and enhancements, plus ssh
support.
Major new features:
- Monotone can now push/pull/synchronize over arbitrary
bidirectional streams, not just raw TCP.
- File-to-file synchronization is enabled out of the box,
e.g.:
$ mtn -d db1.mtn sync file:/path/to/db2.mtn
- SSH synchronization is enabled out of the box, e.g.:
$ mtn -d local.mtn sync ssh://njs@venge.net/home/njs/remote.mtn
Note that this requires mtn be installed on the remote
computer, and locks the remote database while running; it
is not ideal for groups accessing a shared database.
- New protocols can be defined with Lua hooks -- for
example, someone could in principle make "$ mtn sync
xmpp://njs@jabber.org" do something interesting.
- See section "Other Transports" under "Advanced Uses" in the
for more details.
Minor new features:
- Selectors now support escaping, e.g., b:foo\/bar can be used
to refer to a branch with name "foo/bar" (normally / is a
metacharacter that separates multiple selectors).
- Visual C++ can now build monotone on Windows. (Mostly
important because it allows better Windows debugging.)
- --quiet now turns tickers off, and does not turn warnings
off. New option --reallyquiet disables warnings as well.
- New command 'automate common_ancestors'.
- 'ls branches' now takes a pattern, e.g.:
$ mtn ls branches "*contrib*"
Speed improvements:
- Bug in select() loop fixed, server should no longer pause in
processing other clients while busy with one, but multiplex
fairly.
- The database has a new write buffer which gives significant
speed improvements in initial pulls by cancelling redundant
database writes.
- There's been a fair bit of performance tuning all around.
Bug fixes:
- Merge tools that exit in failure are now detected.
- Better reporting of operating system errors on Win32.
- Passphrases stored in ~/.monotonerc are no longer written to
the log file. (Passphrases entered at the terminal were
never written to the log file.)
- Fix sql injection bugs in selectors, making it safe to
expose slectors in web interfaces etc.
- Files marked with the mtn:execute attr now respect umask.
- 'automate' commands on Win32 now disable newline translation
on their output; this is especially important for 'automate
stdio'.
- 'db check' now calls the sqlite "PRAGMA integrity_check", to
validate the integrity of things like sqlite indices.
- 'mtn annotate nonexistent-file' now gives a proper error
message, instead of an assertion error.
- 'mtn revert --missing' now works correctly when run in a
subdirectory.
- 'automate inventory' no longer fails when _MTN/work contains
patch stanzas.
Other:
- Many, many internal code cleanups
- Including changes to somewhat reduce the size of the
binary
- New tutorial on using packets added to the manual
- Updated translations, improved error messages, etc.
Reliability considerations:
- In the two months since 0.26 was released, zero serious bugs
have been reported in the new code.
