This is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.2.0.
- Configuration/Compilation
* Fixed architecture detection on UltraSPARC-T1 systems.
* Fixed compilation on embedded architectures when qreal is not double.
- Documentation
* Completed documentation for "Implementing Atomic Operations",
which is useful for people porting Qt to a new hardware architecture.
- Translations
* Added a new unofficial Portuguese translation courtesy of Helder
Correia.
- Qt Linguist
* Made the columns in the phrasebook resizeable.
- lupdate
* Fixed bug in the .pro parser of lupdate. It should accept backslashes.
* Fixed a severe slowdown in lupdate. (~400x speedup.)
* Fixed traversal of subdirectories.
- moc
* Don't create trigraphs in the generated code for C++ casts.
- uic
* Fixed a bug that generated excessive margins for Q3GroupBox.
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
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).
maintaining GUI (graphical user interface) applications.
Qt is written in C++ and is fully object-oriented. It has everything you need
to create professional GUI applications. And it enables you to create them
quickly.
Qt is a multi-platform toolkit. When developing software with Qt, you can run
it on the X Window System (Unix/X11) or Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 95/98.
Simply recompile your source code on the platform you want.
Qt cuts down the complexity in implementing large and complex systems. Its
ingenious signal-slot technology enables true component programming.
