2.2.0 - Sat May 15, 2004
------------------------
* Replace GdkFont text drawing with Pango.
* Add plugin capability to the gkrellmd server. Wrote demo5 plugin as a
tutorial on a client/server capable plugin.
* Minimize Pango drawing to get CPU usage down:
1) Draw chart text on a caching text layer.
2) Add a "scroll text" api to text decals where a Pango string is
drawn on a pixmap which can be srolled by setting the decal offset.
See the plugins and themes changelog for more info.
* linux.c reads temperatures from the hddtemp daemon so disk temperature
display can be consistent with other sensors (and detected by gkrellmd).
* Hajimu Umemoto: glib12 server Makefile, use `glib-config --libs glib
gmodule and initialize text extent in clock.c
* Sjoerd Simons: set the _NET_WM_STRUT property when dock type.
* Defer setting withdrawn state until after main window realize.
* Removed the -Wstrict-prototypes option since it causes warnings
in GTK+ headers which are simply too annoying. Hopefully I won't
regret this... *"Jaws" theme*.
* Cleaned code in various places where warnings had earlier crept
in hidden by the flood caused by GTK+ and -Wstrict-prototypes.
* Removed printf() from hex-text-loader which I forgot in there. :/
* Regenerated Makefile, hopefully fixing problem with install.
* Added "Video, MOV" type to default config; quietened mplayer.
* Updated Italian translation, from F. Cosoleto.
The Xen virtual machine monitor allows running several virtual machines
on a single physical machine. The xentools12 package contains the
tools to create, destroy and control the virtual machines.
The xentools12 package contains the tools for Xen v1.2.
"yes"). So any packages that have old GNU configure script that
does not support --infodir option (while using INFO_FILES) can set
CONFIGURE_HAS_INFODIR=NO.
This was suggested by agc@ as a clearer definition.
* Fixed the fix for memory leaks in Search, since segfaulting is
actually worse. I hope I got it, this time. Sorry. :/
* Fixed stupidly signless variable that caused the textviewer to
die horribly when asked to view a directory. Reported by F. Co-
soleto.
* Made View on directories in the sample config do nothing, since
ViewText will open an empty window, now.
* Added Italian translation, courtesy of F. Cosoleto.
Changes 0.11.49
* Changed "Other" to "Others" in ChMod command dialog. Pointed out
by F. Cosoleto.
* Improvements in the textviewer, inspired by a patch signed F.
Cosoleto: Goto, Search and Quit (was "Close") now have obvious
keyboard accelerators. Search also has Control+F, and repeats
(infinitely when at least one match exists) on F3.
* Changed test for automatic hex viewing; now looks for a byte
lower than 7; if found, the file is not text. This works better
for 8-bit text files. It does not work for e.g. UTF-8, but then
again gentoo's text viewer never did. :)
* Made textviewer into a real toplevel window, since it otherwise
lacked e.g. resize controls which seemed silly.
* Plugged stupid memory leaks in textviewer when searching. Thanks
to F. Cosoleto, as usual. :)
* Added an option to disable the storing of selection information
in the history. Suggested by H. Hansen.
* Added RealMedia (.rm) as a recognized Video type in the default
config.
* Implemented a new dynamic-content menu, called <ParentsMenu> that
contains the directories from the current one's parent to the
root.
* Added the ability to bind a command to the right-click of a path
entry widget in a pane. Bound to "MenuPopup menu=<ParentsMenu> by
default, but editable on the Controls config page.
* FAM-triggered rescanning rate is now dynamically adjusted to be
4 times the time it takes to do the rescan. This prevents gentoo
from hogging the CPU when very frequent changes causes it to re-
scan continuously. Very inspirational patch by S. Zobell.
See NEWS inside the archive for other version changes
gst-plugins-* packages. Generating a description during installation
is not well supported and causes problems when creating the README
files, for example.
* Fix various crashes and leaks.
* Use correct icon for filesystem in treeview.
* Place unplaced windows over the parent window.
* Fix non-ascii typeahead.
* Faster property dialog for operations on many files.
* Faster list view.
* Fill open location dialog with initial path.
* Add down arrow to location button.
* Make shift close window behind in more places.
* Allow smaller spatial windows.
* Allow svg backgrounds.
* Fix ignore kde trash directory hack.
* By default set per-folder background in spatial mode.
Changes in the package:
* Use gnutls instead of openssl. This fixes many problems exposed by
programs using the mozilla renderer and gnome-vfs2 together (like
epiphany and galeon), due to conflicting symbols. Closes PR pkg/25190.
* Move documentation out of the doc/html subdirectory.
Bug fixes in this version:
* Portability fixes.
* Work with GNUTLS 1.0.
* sftp: handles servers that ask for "Password" (not "password").
* gnome_vfs_inet_connection_read handles EOF correctly.
* thread-safe gnome-vfs-parse-ls.c.
* Fix mime crash.
* Toplevel smb directories aren't writable.
Changes:
The package now installs in /package/admin/daemontools. There are three
new utilities: svscanboot, readproctitle, and pgrphack. multilog now
accepts SIGALRM to force log rotation. svscan now checks for the
existence of /service/blah/log rather than checking whether
/service/blah is sticky.
