Release 1.39
Stable release with all changes in 1.38_50..1.38_51
2016-10-01 Slaven Rezic <slaven@rezic.de>
Release 1.38_51
Just recreated distribution with a changed SIGNATURE.
Release 1.38_50
Don't allow XXE (XML External Entities) processing while parsing
SVG files. Addresses RT #118205. This is a potentially
incompatible change; however usually SVG files do not rely on XXE.

Release 1.37
Stable release with all changes in 1.36_51..1.36_52
2014-12-29 Slaven Rezic <slaven@rezic.de>
Release 1.36_52
Handle invalid TIFF chunks: stop processing if an unrecognized
fieldtype is encountered. This is an additional fix for RT #100847.
2014-12-19 Slaven Rezic <slaven@rezic.de>
Release 1.36_51
Use IO::Scalar instead of opening a scalar, for all
perls < 5.21.7. This is to prevent possible segmentation faults
with faulty images. See RT #100847 and
https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=123443
Fix a "Variable declared in conditional statement" error.
Fix a couple of typos.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.

Additional author tests in xt.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

Release 1.30
No changes since 1.29_53, just increased VERSION.
2009-09-23 Slaven Rezic <srezic@cpan.org>
Release 1.29_53
SVG parsing: load_ext_dtd is now set to false, to avoid unnecessary
possible network connections; this is also ceasing errors with
libxml 2.7.x.
2009-09-16 Slaven Rezic <srezic@cpan.org>
Release 1.29_52
More diagnostics in failing tests.
Added tests cases for RT #49546.

images (RT #49546)
2009-08-14 Slaven Rezic <srezic@cpan.org>
Release 1.29_50
Marked Compress::Zlib as recommended module and skip a test if it is
not installed (RT #48415)
pkgsrc changes:
- Update dependencies:
* IO::String is not required anymore (it's in Perl CORE)
* XML::LibXML is preferred over XML::Simple
- Added license (perl5 license)
- Added Module::Install as module type to prevent bundled
Module::Install from automatic installing
Upstream changes:
2009-07-31 Slaven Rezic <srezic@cpan.org>
Release 1.29
SVG parsing is now done by XML::LibXML::Reader, if available,
otherwise the old XML::Simple-based code is used. Using the
new code is much more memory efficient and faster. The old
module can still be used by setting
@Image::Info::SVG::PREFER_MODULE
Removed deprecation notice.
Bundled Module::Install 0.91.
Ceased a warning in the JPEG parsing code with perl 5.6.x.
Lowered minimum required Perl version to 5.6.0 (There's no
evidence that it does not work with that Perl version).
Ceased warnings when reading PNG files with ztxt (compressed
comment) chunk (RT #28054)
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").
2008-03-30 v1.28 Tels 128 tests
* raise minimum required Perl version to v5.6.2
(it doesn't work on 5.005 anyway, open() with three arguments
is not supported there and I don't have time to rewrite the code
for outdated Perl versions. If you need it to run on 5.005, write
a patch and file a bug report please.)
* fix bug #15167: Incorrect width and height for JPG files
(the fix now keeps the highest value for width/height, instead of
creating an array ref with all the values)
* remove Build.PL (bundle Module::Install 0.71)
2007-12-15 v1.27 Tels 128 tests
* add both main authors to META.yml (does not work yet due to bug
in Module::Install)
* fix bug #30890: [PATCH] Transposed lines in documentation
* fix bug #31165: Add attribute for parsing TIFF images (Thanx Adam Witney!)
2007-09-09 v1.26 Tels 128 tests
* clarify the license by adding "v5.8.8" (otherwise it is quite unclear
which Perl version, release or product the license text refers to)
* fix bug #29088 - Another hanging image
* fix bug #29243 - Exiftext fields (like UserComment) not parsed correctly
2007-02-24 v1.24 Tels 122 tests
* fix bug #22507: add missing compression modes for TIFF
* fix bug #25032: fix TIFF ASCII text field handling (Thanx BJWHEELER!)
(This enables, among other things the ImageDescription tag for TIFF
files)
2006-07-16 v1.22 Tels 123 tests
* fix bug #19071: byteorder for TIFF on 64-bit systems broken
* better error message in case SOI is missing in a JPEG
(still no fix for #20183)
* SVG:
+ use the correct MIME type "image/svg+xml"
+ version extraction was broken
+ comments had too much whitespace at front/end (these should be
ignored and not extracted anyway)
* add svg.t
* resize test.jpg and test.png to make dist smaller
* add interlace.png and beef up t/png.t
2006-05-01 v1.21 Tels 96 tests
* move the code to build Info.pm to dev/build.pl
* include a pre-generated Info.pm into MANIFEST
(fixes the indexing issue with CPAN)
* dont use Symbol(), it is required before its usage anyway
* allow exporting of determine_file_type and image_type
* remove a needless diag message in string.t (Thanx jpo!)
* add two test TIFFs (little/big endian) and a test file (Thanx jpo!)
* create a new, much smaller test.rle file
* more tests in t/bmp.t
2006-03-13 v1.20 Tels 74 tests
* a few additions to Panasonic MakerNote in EXIF parsing
* use Module::Install 0.60 to fix breakage from 0.58
* fix bug #8193: Adds direct access to the determine_file_format logic
With the following changes:
+ read only 11 bytes to determine file format (tiny.pgm is 11 bytes long)
+ fix provided patch to really work
* fix bug #18147:
+ new TIFF code failed if the system endianness didn't match the TIFF
image endianness - thanx jpo!
* replace the link to the TIFF spec with a public link - thanx jpo!
2006-03-05 v1.19 Tels 74 tests
* finally fix bug #6558: (Thanx jpo!)
+ fix typos: Image::X(B|P)M must be Image::X(p|b)m (Thanx jpo!)
+ fix missing semicolon in Image/Info/XPM.pm
+ Image::Info::XPM and Image::Info::XBM: add -width and -height to new()
* add POD for process_file() into SVG, Xbm and Xpm
* a few additions to Panasonic MakerNote in EXIF parsing
* add doc about EXIF being wholly incomplete and using Image::ExifTool
* apply patch, tests and add test.tif from Ben Wheeler, Thanx!:
+ fix bug #7442 Infinite loop of errors in Image::Info::TIFF
+ fix bug #3698 Broken BitsPerSample handling in TIFFs
2006-03-03 v1.18 Tels 61 tests
* fix bug #6558: Image::Info 1.16 -> fails two tests (Thanx jpo!)
+ make string.t use strict, Test::More and simplify it
+ let string.t skip tests if Image::Xpm, Image::Xbm or XML::Simple
are not installed (these would formerly silently fail)
+ Image::Info::XPM and Image::Info::XBM now handle in-memory files better
+ fix also pod_cov.t warnings (was "Image::Info.pm" vs "Image::Info")
* reduce img/test.gif in size, it did eat up 1/3 of the entire dist size
* reducing test.jpg with GIMP reveals a bug in EXIF parsing (not yet fixed)
* MakerNote parsing:
+ add support for Panasonic cameras
+ for the following manufacturers we do not check the camera model, this
gets all cameras, even yet unreleased ones to work:
+ Canon
+ Panasonic
+ Casio
+ Olympus
+ Fujifilm
+ UNDEFINED/ASCII strings from MakeNotes might have wrong length due to
trailing \x00 chars, so we remove them and set the correct length
* update one more URL for EXIF specs
* imgdump uses Data::Dumper (not Data::Dump)
* Install/build:
+ use Module::Install and bundle it, clean Makefile.PL up
+ add a compat Build.PL file
* add a CREDITS file
* PPM.pm: add VERSION, and POD
* various POD fixes and additions
* various small code cleanups
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.
2006-01-28 v1.17 Tels 48 tests
* new maintainer: TELS
* signed with my key
* convert tests to Test::More
* add pod.t and pod_cover.t
* fix all POD errors
* use strict in Makefile.PL and generate custom META.yml
* don't include lib/Image/Info.pm - it is autogenerated anyway
* html_dim() returns lowercase and properly quoted, for SVG/XHTML etc.,
e.g. you get now 'width="900" height="800"'
* fix bug #8136: update URL for EXIF standard
* fix bug #8522 - dies at JPEGInterchangeFormatLngth (Thanx srezic@cpan.org)
* fix also: EXIF says it is "JPEGInterchangeFormatLength", and not "...Lngth"
* fix bug #5165: (duplicate of #8522)
* fix bug #6018: FocalPlaneResolutionUnit decoded wrongly
* fix bug #6083: add support for MakerNote for Nikon D70/D100
* fix bug #16161: netpbm images may have more than 8bit/channel
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.
addresses PR pkg/28619 from H. Todd Fujinaka.
- Support for Canon 300D/Digital Rebel.
- Avoid IO::String dependency for perl-5.8.
- Support TIFF/Exif GPS tags.
- Support for Olympus C-700UZ and fix for the Olympus-JpegQual attribute.
- Support for Canon makernote.
- IO::String v1.02 core dumps fixed by depending on v1.03.
Changes:
- Don't require IO::String for perl-5.8 as
it has that feature built in. Based on patch
by Slaven Rezic <slaven.rezic@berlin.de>.
- Support for Exif 2.2 tags contributed by
Stephane Bailliez <sbailliez@apache.org>.
- Support Olympus C4000Z MakerNote also from
Stephane Bailliez.
- More robust TIFF parser that keeps on going if some of the
fields appears to be garbage.
- Workaround for "Samsung Digimax 200"'s brain-dead resolution
values.
