Formerly known as the Ximian Setup Tools, the GST are a fully integrated set
of tools aimed to make easy the job that means the computer administration
on an UNIX or Linux system. They're thought to help from the new Linux or
UNIX user to the system administrators. The GNOME System Tools are free
software, licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
Liboobs is a lightweight library that provides a GObject based interface
to system-tools-backends. It's completely abstracted of the
communication and authentication details, making it easy for
applications to integrate with the system details.
The System Tools Backends (s-t-b for short) are a set of cross-platform
modules for Linux, FreeBSD and other Unix systems. The backends provide a
common DBus interface to all platforms to modify or read the system
configuration in a distro independent fashion. Historically, access to
system configuration has varied deeply across Unix flavours, and concreting
a bit more, across Linux distributions, making it near impossible to write
desktop tools that could work flawlessly in a cross-platform way. System
Tools Backends try to fill this gap, offering a generic and easy way for
desktop applications to read and modify configuration details.
Net::DBus provides a Perl XS API to the dbus inter-application
messaging system. The Perl API covers the core base level
of the dbus APIs, not concerning itself yet with the GLib
or QT wrappers. For more information on dbus visit the
project website at:

Change log
* Allow _ as a valid character in file names and URLs. Do not remove #

Updated packages and products
* Products.CMFPlone 3.1.7
* plone.i18n 1.0.7
* archetypes.kss 1.4.3
Pkgsrc changes:
- Remove now unneeded patch file.
Upstream changes:
1.11 13.11.2008
- removed =begin BUGS section in Pod that was preventing proper display
- fixed perlio layer for pass-through binary files
- ref to PodPOMWeb.css used wrong case (undetected on -Win32!)
- fixed page titles when the name has no "-- description"
Changes:
- no questions asked about Mail::Box::Parser::C; it is not
really maintained as it should... but probably still works
in most cases.
Fixes:
- change in TAP::Harness shows missing TAP::Parser::Aggregator
in test.pl rt.cpan.org#39264 [Jerrad Pierce]
- removed (@) prototype on Mail::Internet::new replacement,
because it produces a warning on 5.10
version 2.083: Tue Sep 2 09:41:19 CEST 2008
Changes:
- FIX CHARACTER-SET HANDLING. When a new body is created,
it will get charset 'PERL', which means: Perl internal
representation. Also the decoded() body is of that. As part
of a message, the body with be translated into real utf-8.
This change will make Mail::Box slower, but correct! Check
your applications! Use $msg->decoded when you process the
content.
- removed $msg->decoded option 'keep', because decoded object
depends on temporary decoding parameters.
Fixes:
- use File::Temp, not POSIX::tmpnam, to work around Windows
bug. rt.cpan.org#35747 [Ron Murray]
- Mail::Message::contentType could produce "use of undefined"
error message [Patrick Heesom]
- Fix listing IMAP folders. rt.cpan.org#36458 [Jonathan Kamens]
- do not set charset on non-text parts.
- no complaints for IMAP4 object without explicit folder
name. rt.cpan.org#37801 [Slaven Rezic]
- remove SpamAssassion question from installation: SAv2 is the
only supported, but most people will not install that.
Improvements:
- doc-patch, where "my Type @array" is not permitted
anymore [Mike Andrews]
- do not coerce parts via messages into parts.
Changes from 1.3.2:
== 1.3.4 2008-11-12

== 1.3.3 2008-10-21
* prepend_sources correctly places arguments at start of sources list
* removed lib/rubigen/version.rb; RubiGen::VERSION is in lib/rubigen.rb now; there is no RubiGen::VERSION::STRING
Here is the message on xorg-announce.
Hopefully this is the last 2.4.x release. This one just includes a few
changes relative to 2.4.2, but the G4x stolen memory bit is an important
one.
Adam Jackson (1):
Quirk: No LVDS on Dell Studio Hybrid
Carl Worth (1):
Disable frame buffer compression by default for GM965.
Eric Anholt (1):
Fix broken stolen memory counting on G4X.
Jesse Barnes (3):
Don't allocate a pipe for hotplug detection
Add a few programs to .gitignore
Update version to 2.4.3 for release
Zhenyu Wang (3):
Disable render standby
Add backlight kernel method support on Asus and Eeepc
quirk LVDS on Asus Eee box
in /var/folders/xx/...+++... via the TMPDIR environment and cheerfully
installs it in /usr/pkg/etc/dbus-1/session.conf meaning that only the
user who installed the package will be able to write to that directory...
except that dbus rejects directories with "+"'s in the filename so it
won't work anyway. use configure --with-session-socket-dir=/tmp
to work around this. found a description of this issue here:
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/MacOSX/Quartz in the
"Running from the commandline" section.
dbus also cannot cope with $DISPLAY containing "/" chars (like in
darwin ... /tmp/launch-kcvznx/:0 ) so get rid of the ":" as described
here:
https://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/16833/patch-dbus-launch-x11.c.diff
common makery into Makefile.common, add CONFLICTS for each package
referring to the others, as for now the manpages will conflict.
TODO: Use ALTERNATIVES system? How to handle manpages?
Many bug fixes and some feature/documentation enhancements. The
web site goes into this in much detail; also, see CHANGES.txt
and RELEASE.txt in the source distribution.
Also, see the change to patch-aa which ensures we use ${PKGVERSION_NOREV}
to generate the version for the installation where appropriate.
2.14.3 (stable):
* Restored Gtk::HandleBox::signal_child_attached() and
Gtk::LinkButton::property_visited() to the API, which were lost
sometime during the gtkmm 2.14.x series.
