Fixes:

This release adds read and write support for Samsung SRW images and Samsung
makernotes. The exiv2 library now accepts a custom error handler and has
a setting to control which messages are generated. The exiv2 command line tool
has a new 'quiet' option which uses the new functionality to suppress all
library warnings. Some important API changes will allow many future image
format and makernote enhancements to be done in a binary compatible fashion.
The new exiv2.hpp umbrella header file further shields applications from
library changes.

This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

Significant Changes from version 0.16
* Exiv2 utility
- [tools] exiv2 now writes a proper XMP sidecar file (it used to
just dump the XMP packet to a file).
- [tools] exiv2 can now also save Exif and IPTC data in the XMP
sidecar file (conversion of Exif/IPTC to/from XMP).
* Exiv2 library
- 0000546: [exif] Exiv2 crashes while converting Nikon lens information
for pretty printing.
10-Jan-2008 Exiv2 0.16 released
Here is the final 0.16 release with XMP support. It took longer
than it should have and thus contains quite a list of bug fixes
and enhancements.
09-Nov-2007 Exiv2 0.16-pre1
This is a pre-release of the upcoming Exiv2 0.16 with XMP support.
Adding XMP metadata to an image is now just as easy as adding Exif
or IPTC tags. In addition there is new support for Olympus ORF
images and Pentax makernotes. Please try Exiv2 0.16-pre1 and report
issues you may have with it to the Exiv2 forum.
24-Sep-2007 XMP testing
The XMP implementation is now in the trunk in SVN and it is reasonably
complete and ready for testing. Please try it out and let us know
your comments. See this announcement for more details.
31-Aug-2007 XMP support
We're working on adding XMP support to the library, which should
become the main feature of the next release. Contributions are
welcome, in particular we need input from potential users about
API preferences and XMP test data. You are invited to join this
discussion in the forum and contribute your viewpoints.
10-Jul-2007 Exiv2 0.15 released
This maintenance release fixes a number of bugs, adds support for
Minolta G500 RAW files and has minor tag and some larger translation
updates. See the changelog for a concise listing of patches in this
release.
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
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
changes:
-New -M option to specify modify commands directly on the command line
-new -l option for a directory to/from which to extract/import files
-bugfixes
-Libtool support
-added makernotes
-raw file support
