in traditional address/netmask format and in the new CIDR format.
There are also methods for calculating the network and broadcast
address and also to see check if a given address is in a specific
network.
New Libraries
* Iostreams Library: Framework for defining streams, stream
buffers and i/o filters, from Jonathan Turkanis.
* Functional/Hash Library: A TR1 hash function object that can be
extended to hash user defined types, from Daniel James.
* Parameter Library: Write functions that accept arguments by
name: especially useful when a function has more than one
argument with a useful default value, since named arguments can
be passed in any order.
* Pointer Container Library: Containers for storing heap-allocated
polymorphic objects to ease OO-programming, from Thorsten Ottosen.
* Wave: Standards conformant implementation of the mandated
C99/C++ preprocessor functionality packed behind an easy to use
iterator interface, from Hartmut Kaiser.
Updated Libraries
* Assignment Library: Support for Pointer Container Library and
new efficient functions ref_list_of() and cref_list_of() for
generating anonymous ranges.
* Bind Library: Bind expressions now support comparisons and
negation. Example: bind(&X::name, _1) < bind(&X::name, _2).
* Date-Time Library:
o Added local time and time zone classes.
o Added format-based Input/Output facets.
o For a complete list of changes, see the library change history.
* Graph Library: Introduced several new algorithms and improved
existing algorithms:
o Experimental Python bindings, from Doug Gregor and Indiana
University.
o floyd_warshall_all_pairs_shortest_paths, from Lauren Foutz
and Scott Hill.
o astar_search, from Kristopher Beevers and Jufeng Peng.
o fruchterman_reingold_force_directed_layout, from Doug
Gregor and Indiana University.
o biconnected_components and articulation_points, from
Jeremy Siek, Janusz Piwowarski, and Doug Gregor.
o sequential_vertex_coloring has been updated, tested, and
documented.
o gursoy_atun_layout, from Jeremiah Willcock and Doug Gregor
of Indiana University.
o king_ordering, from D. Kevin McGrath of Indiana University.
o cuthill_mckee ordering has been recast as an invocation of
breadth_first_search and now supports graphs with multiple
components.
o dijkstra_shortest_paths now uses a relaxed heap as
its priority queue, improving its complexity to O(V log V) and
improving real-world performance for larger graphs.
o read_graphviz now has a new, Spirit-based parser that
works for all graph types and supports arbitrary
properties on the graph, from Ron Garcia. The old,
Bison-based GraphViz reader has been deprecated and will
be removed in a future Boost release. write_graphviz also
supports dynamic properties.
o subgraph: get_property now refers to the subgraph
property, not the root graph's property.
o See the history for additional changes and bug fixes.
* Multi-index Containers Library:
o New hashed indices.
o Added serialization support.
o For a complete list of changes, see the library release notes.
* Program Options Library:
o Option descriptions are now printed with word wrapping.
o Command line parser can bypass unregistered options,
instead of throwing.
o Removed support for "implicit" (optional) values.
o New customization method
'command_line_parser::extra_style_parser'. Unlike
'additional_parser', allows the user to parse several
tokens and return a vector of options, not just a single
option.
o Work with disabled exceptions.
* Property Map Library: Introduced the dynamic properties class,
which provides dynamically-typed access to a set of property maps.
* Random Number Library: improved initialization for
mersenne_twister, algorithm by Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji
Nishimura, implemented for Boost by Jens Maurer.
Note: All test vectors for mersenne_twisters constructed or
seeded without parameters or with a single unsigned int parameter
become invalid.
* Range Library: Minor addition of convenience functions to
iterator range like front(), back() and operator[]().
* Regex Library:
o Rewritten front end parser now supports (?imsx-imsx)
constructs, plus lookbehind assertions and conditional
expressions.
o Thin wrapper classes improve integration with MFC/ATL code.
o Full (optional) Unicode support via the ICU library.
Refer to the regex history page for more information on these
and other small changes.
* Serialization Library:
o DLL version.
o Auto-linking.
o Serialization of variants.
o Improved seialization of shared pointers.
* Signals Library: added slot blocking/unblocking, from Frantz
Maerten. Huge improvements to signal invocation performance from
Robert Zeh.
This update has been tested on NetBSD 2.0.2, 3.0_BETA and current.

Specific notable user-visible changes:
* When cancelling a message being composed the commands are now "^C"
followed by "_C_onfirm" instead of "^C" followed by "_Y_es". "^C"
"Yes" was close to "^X" "Yes", the command used to send a message.
The change is there to prevent inadvertent cancellations. The old
behavior may be restored by setting the feature
Compose-Cancel-Confirm-Uses-Yes.
* Field for comments added to Rules. Warning: Don't use this field
until all of the Pines that you run are version 4.63 or higher,
since it will cause the Rule to be ignored in previous versions.
because some Perl modules make some (bad) assumptions about the
structure of a MakeMaker-generated Makefile. Instead, remove the
perllocal.pod file whenever a p5-* module or perl itself is removed.
While here, rename some of the install/deinstall templates to more
descriptive names.
Bump the PKGREVISION to 3.
Changes (note that relnotes say -2004d, but it is indeed -2004e):
=====
imap-2004d is a maintenance release, released concurrently with Pine
4.63, and consists primarily of bugfixes
There is now a workaround for RedHat breaking flock(). However, since
RedHat has said that they don't support flock(), there is no guarantee
that they won't break it in the future. So you may want to consider some
other Linux distribution or BSD instead. See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=123415
for the gruesome details.
There are no user-visible functional enhancements in this version.
=====
OTHER CHANGE: Multiple newsrc and MSA support needed by Pine 4.63.
changes:
* Better documentation [Adam Schreiber]
* Keyring backups not world readable. [Adam Schreiber]
* Nautilus context menu items cleaned up.
* Better file association for armor encoded keys.
* Create agent socket inside user"s home directory.
* Clearer status text for key operations.
* Cleaned up menus and added GNOME features like dynamic
accelerator assignment (ie: using GtkUIManager).
* HIG polish and UI fixes. [Jim Pharis, Flavio daCosta]
* Better command line handling and aded command line
help. [Adam Schreiber]
* Many bug and crasher fixes.
-translation updates
This is lurking in my tree for a long time, was hoping to find
time&energy to libtoolize it, but I've given up on this.
It is still much better than GNU ghostscript in particular for
use with scribus, so it is worth having anyway.
changes:
-Enabled code for shutting down idle sockd processes.
-Return immediate error if username/password is wrong
-better preserve TCP semantics across connections
-bugfixes
"this release of gaim has a few security fixes which mirror
the effects of patch-ae patch-af patch-ag"
ChangeLog says:
version 1.5.0 (8/11/2005):
* Ability to set IRC quit message (Lalo Martins)
* OSCAR file transfers now work for 2 users behind the same NAT
(Jonathan Clark)
* Yahoo! buddy requests to add you to their buddy list now prompt for
authorization
* Added a /clear command for conversations/chats
* Fixed ICQ encoding for messages with offline ICQ users
(Ilya Konstantinov, SF Bug #1179452)
* Default Yahoo! chat roomlist locale to 'us'
as it conflicts with gnome-backgrounds. Found by drochner@.
While here, drop mimeinfo.cache from the PLIST; it shouldn't be there,
because it's automatically handled.
Bump PKGREVISION to 1.
a) the four predefined break strings
b) the fact that \z is translated to the telnet "send break" protocol sequence
I've tried to send this patch upstream, but have yet to receive a response.
Bump package revision.
"A vulnerability in wine can be exploited by malicious, local users to
perform certain actions on a vulnerable system with escalated privileges.
The vulnerability is caused due to a temporary file being created
insecurely in "/tmp" by winelauncher.in under certain error conditions.
This can be exploited via symlink attacks to create or overwrite
arbitrary files with the privileges of the user running the affected
application."

Patch from Wine CVS.
o Several new keymaps has been added
o New handwriting recognition files has been added.
o FAQ and GUI translations has been added.
o AMD 64 bit fixes has been added.
o Filename and application icon is now shown.
"A vulnerability has been reported in Xpdf, which can be exploited by
malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on a vulnerable system."
http://secunia.com/advisories/16374/
Patches from Ubuntu and RedHat.
Changes:
* New option added: VND_COMPRESSION. To enable vnd(4)
compression on /usr and /var/db/pkg (at the moment).
* Fixed a problem with -k and USE_GNU_GRUB=yes,
building a kernel with -k overwrites the "menu.lst"
file.
* Only copy /etc/X11/XF86Config to $ISODIR when there
is not a previous file, fixes PR pkg/30889.
* Renamed the rc.d script mfs_rcd to livecd, because
it's not only mfs anymore.
Finally we can have kde-3.4.2 with NetBSD in a live CD-ROM:
416M netbsd-3.99.7_kde-3.4.2.iso
Enjoy.
libdb. A (obviously braindead) system might ship with a correct libdb1 and
a frivolous libdb. I'm speaking of RedHat, of course.
But anyway, it makes more sense, libdb1 just can't be anything but a db1
library.
OK'd by jlam@.
