Package changes:
The include files moved from $PREFIX/include/lcms to
$PREFIX/include. Support added to buildlink*.mk to provide
compatibility symlinks include/lcms/*.h in BUILDLINK_DIR.
No list of changes since the previously packaged version (1.06), I do not
even know if there was any versions in between... Anyway changes
in version 1.12 are (from the homepage):
- Brightness/Contrast/Hue/Saturation/WhitePoint modification across abstract
profile
- License changed to MIT
- pseq tag handling: cmsReadProfileSequenceDescription and cmsSEQ,
cmsPSEQDESC structures
- CRD generation now supports black point compensation, see
cmsGetPostScriptCRDEx
- cmsTakeManufacturer and cmsTakeModel for uncooked info on these tags
- Writing 8 bit profiles is now supported
- Named color profiles support. This turns lcms from a "wide subset" into
a "full implementation" of ICC 3.4, with some ICC 4.0 support.
- PostScript CSA, CRD generation
- Ink-Limiting capabilities for CMYK
- Devicelink profile generation.
- Gray scale virtual profiles
- Linearization virtual device link profiles
- New ICCLINK and ICC2PS utilities
- SWIG wrapper. This enables lcms from Python.
- Floating-point formats are now accepted as well.
- More ICC 4.0 compatibility. Some 4.0 profiles are now are fully understood
(still experimental)
- Profiles can now be saved to memory (thanks to Steven Greaves for providing
the code)
- Char Target data are now handled. Some profiles does store the data
profiler has used. This is all information needed to rebuild the profile
from scratch.
- New low-resolution flag cmsFLAGS_LOWRESPRECALC to save memory.
- User-defined encodings are now supported.
- cmsChangeBuffersFormat() to change the encoding of buffers on runtime
allows reuse of existing transforms.
- Gamma estimation routines cmsEstimateGamma() and cmsEstimateGammaEx()
- multilocalized unicode is now supported. Language and codepage is
selected via cmsSetLanguage() (ICC 4.0 only)
- LUT handling has been enhanced with enumerators. (SAMPLER_INSPECT)
- Improved TIFFICC, JPEGICC and ICCTRANS utilities.
- cmsOpenProfileFromMem() no longer creates temporary files.
- Transforms does accept now a maximum of 8 channels on input and 16 on
output. (last version did accept 6 on input)
- 8 <-> 16 bits per sample are now always computed accurately.
- Some minor bugs fixed
the normal case when BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> isn't specified, it receives
a value only once due to the multiple inclusion protection in the
bulldlink3.mk files. In the case where a package includes several
buildlink3.mk files that each want a slightly different version of another
dependency, having BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.<pkg> be a list allows for the
strictest <pkg> dependency to be matched.
${SHAREOWN}:${SHAREGRP}, and then copy the files to ${PREFIX} - this
prevents an ordinary user from deleting the files under ${WRKSRC}.
Instead, copy the files into ${PREFIX} first, then change their ownership.
buildlink2.mk files back into the main trunk. This provides sufficient
buildlink2 infrastructure to start merging other packages from the
buildlink2 branch that have already been converted to use the buildlink2
framework.
BUILDLINK_PREFIX.<pkgname>. This allows buildlink to find X11BASE packages
regardless of whether they were installed before or after xpkgwedge was
installed. Idea by Alistair Crooks <agc@pkgsrc.org>.
FOO_REQD=1.0 being converted to foo>=1.0, one can now directly specify
the dependency pattern as FOO_DEPENDS=foo>=1.0. This allows things like
JPEG_DEPENDS=jpeg-6b, or fancier expressions like for postgresql-lib.
Change existing FOO_REQD definitions in Makefiles to FOO_DEPENDS.
