+ minor fixes to the --disable-overwrite logic, to ensure that the
configured $(includedir) is not cancelled by the mingwxx-filesystem
rpm macros.
+ add --disable-db-install configure option, to simplify building
cross-compile support packages.
+ add mingw-ncurses.spec file, for testing cross-compiles.
+ improve CF_GCC_VERSION to work around Debian's customization of gcc
--version message.
+ improve configure macros as done in byacc:
+ drop 2.13 compatibility; use 2.52.xxxx version only since EMX port
has used that for a while.
+ add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE's to allow autoheader to run, i.e.,
for experimental use.
+ remove unused configure macros.
+ modify configure script and makefiles to quiet new autoconf warning
for LIBS_TO_MAKE variable.
+ modify configure script to show $PATH_SEPARATOR variable.
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ update autoconf patch to 2.52.20120811, adding --datarootdir
(prompted by discussion with Erwin Waterlander).
+ improve description of --enable-reentrant option in README and the
INSTALL file.
+ add nsterm-256color, make this the default nsterm -TD
+ remove bw from nsterm-bce, per testing with tack -TD
+ add --with-lib-prefix option to allow configuring for old/new flavors
of OS/2 EMX.
+ modify check for gnat version to allow for year, as used in FreeBSD
port.
+ modify check_existence() in db_iterator.c to simply check if the
path is a directory or file, according to the need. Checking for
directory size also gives no usable result with OS/2 (cf: 20120107).
+ support OS/2 kLIBC (patch by KO Myung-Han).
+ various improvments for MinGW (patch by Juergen Pfeifer):
+ modify stat() calls to ignore the st_size member
+ drop mk-dlls.sh script.
+ change recommended regular expression library.
+ modify rain.c to allow for threaded configuraton.
+ modify tset.c to allow for case when size-change logic is not used.
+ improve rpath fix from 20110730 by ensuring that the new $RPATH_LIST
variable is defined in the makefiles which use it.
+ build-fix for DragonFlyBSD's pkgsrc in test/configure script.
+ build-fixes for NetBSD 5.1 with termcap support enabled.
+ corrected k9 in dg460-ansi, add other features based on manuals -TD
+ improve trimming of whitespace at the end of terminfo/termcap output
from tic/infocmp.
+ when writing termcap source, ensure that colons in the description
field are translated to a non-delimiter, i.e., "=".
+ add "-0" option to tic/infocmp, to make the termcap/terminfo source
use a single line.
+ add a null-pointer check when handling the $CC variable.
+ miscellaneous build-fixes for Ada95 and test-directories when built
out-of-tree.
+ use VPATH in makefiles to simplify out-of-tree builds (Debian #34182).
+ fix typo in rmso for tek4106 entry -Goran Weinholt
+ improve linkages in html manpages, adding references to the newer
pages, e.g., *_variables, curs_sp_funcs, curs_threads.
+ add checks in tic for inconsistent cursor-movement controls, and for
inconsistent printer-controls.
+ fill in no-parameter forms of cursor-movement where a parameterized
form is available -TD
+ fill in missing cursor controls where the form of the controls is
ANSI -TD
+ fix inconsistent punctuation in form_variables manpage (patch by
Sven Joachim).
+ add parameterized cursor-controls to linux-basic (report by Dae) -TD
> patch by Juergen Pfeifer:
+ document how to build 32-bit libraries in README.MinGW
+ fixes to filename computation in mk-dlls.sh.in
+ use POSIX locale in mk-dlls.sh.in rather than en_US (report by Sven
Joachim).
+ add a check in mk-dlls.sh.in to obtain the size of a pointer to
distinguish between 32-bit and 64-bit hosts. The result is stored
in mingw_arch
+ add "XT" capability to entries for terminals that support both
xterm-style mouse- and title-controls, for "screen" which
special-cases TERM beginning with "xterm" or "rxvt" -TD
> patch by Juergen Pfeifer:
+ use 64-Bit MinGW toolchain (recommended package from TDM, see
README.MinGW).
+ support pthreads when using the TDM MinGW toolchain
+ refactor CF_SHARED_OPTS configure macro, making CF_RPATH_HACK more
reusable.
+ improve configure CF_REGEX, similar fixes.
+ improve configure CF_FIND_LINKAGE, adding add check between system
(default) and explicit paths, where we can find the entrypoint in the
given library.
+ add check if Gpm_Open() returns a -2, e.g., for "xterm". This is
normally suppressed but can be overridden using $NCURSES_GPM_TERMS.
Ensure that Gpm_Close() is called in this case.
+ update llib-lncurses[wt] to use sp-funcs.
+ various code-fixes to build/work with --disable-macros configure
option.
+ add several new files from Juergen Pfeifer which will be used when
integration of "sp-funcs" is complete. This includes a port to
MinGW.
