out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
Add a new USE_LIBTOOL definition that uses the libtool package instead of
pkglibtool which is now considered outdated.
USE_PKGLIBTOOL is available for backwards compatibility with old packages
but is deprecated for new packages.
Changes include:
- Fixed the ordering of tests for versions of Berkeley db.
This will try to use db2, then db1.85, then db1. If you got
gnome-libs-1.0.15 and had problems with metadata in the
Midnight Commander, please use this version instead (Federico).
- Fixes for the installation of HTML/SGML documentation (Karl).
- Fixes to the MDI framework (Jaka).
- Fixes to the GnomeFileEntry widget (Federico).
- Updated translations (Pablo, Vincent, Birger).
- gnome-hello dropped from distribution, use GnomeHello as an
example instead (Havoc)
- GnomeSegv activated (Elliot, Havoc), this will provide a
dialog box telling people that the application just crashed
and point them to the gnome web site.
- Gnome Dentry Editor i18n fixes (George)
- Exports constructor routines for most widgets
- Memory leak fixes in the Canvas/AA (Federico)
- --disable-crash-dialog option (Havoc)
- Large const-ization of incoming parameters work from Hebert.
- Lots of bug fixes from Elliot and Havoc as part of the
Bugathlon.
- Gnome-metadata is thread safe now (Tom Tromey)
- Gnome-Dentry fixed for i18n (George)
- Gnome-Mime key duplication fixed (Bertrand)
- Support GNOME_PATH variable. It enables you to install
different GNOME packages in different locations in the
system and still get gnome-config to recognize your
libraries properly
- gnome-config now wraps the list of libraries, in an attempt
to fit in your screen (me, Raja).
- LIbArt started to be documented (Raph)
- gnome.1 man page updated, gnome-config.1 man page updated
- gnome-mime.5 man page included
- Gnome-dev-info files moved to their own directory (Karl)
- Added Gnome-MDI signal docs (George)
- GnomePixmap, GnomeScores, GnomeDock, GnomeProcBar:
Documented by George.
- Touchups to GnomeDialog, GnomeClient, GnomeApp from George.
- Now GOAD uses the GNOME_PATH variable as a list of
directories that are the root of GNOME installations and the
GNOME_GNORBA_PATH for locating precisely CORBA servers
- Cookie support fixed (Elliot)
Changes include:
* various bug fixes from the gnome bug database.
* gnome-libs.spec.in: Use sysconfdir=/etc instead of $prefix/etc
* libgnome/gnome-config.c: Ignore lines that begin with a '#'
* libgnomeui/gnome-dentry-edit.c: Attempt to remove the memory
leak from not destroy the icon entry window.
* libgnomeui/gnome-scores.c: use strftime() to allow showing
the dates in a localized way.
* libgnomeui/gnome-app-helper.c: changed "Create _New Window" to
"Create New _Window" to avoid conflicts with menus that also use
"_New" (it is the case of gmc)
* po/*.po: modified to reflect that change
* libgnorba/orbitgtk.c (gnorba_CORBA_init): Add new flag to
control the priority of the CORBA loop.
* idl/gnome-factory.idl: #include guard.
* gnome-data/gnome.mime: Midi files also end in .mid
* idl/desktop-textviewer.idl: Replace libgnorba/GnomeObject.h with
libgnorba/gnome-unknown.h.
Also, #include gnome-unknown.idl instead of GnomeObject.idl.
* idl/desktop-textviewer.idl: Reflect latest GNOME::obj to
GNOME::Unknown renaming.
* gnome-bug.in (CATEGORIES): added 'gnome-applets' category
* libgnorba/Makefile.am (gnome_object_built): Added gnome-unknown
to the compilation process.
* idl/Makefile.am (idl_DATA): Added gnome-unknown interface.
* Removed the hypot() hack.
* gnome-data/*.soundlist: Added Portuguese translations.
* libgnorba/goad.c (goad_server_register): If `name' is passed in
as NULL, an object keeps from registering in the name service,
although it still exposes its IOR as before. If `name' isn't NULL
but `kind' is NULL, `kind' is set to "server", and the object is
placed in the naming service.
* idl/GnomeObject.idl: Removed `oneway' from ref and unref; when
such network optimizations are necessary, they should be done by
caching the refcount in the client.
