bdf.ms:270: fatal error: input stack limit exceeded (probable
infinite loop)
that appears when building the xorg-docs package.
Problem reported to current-users by Kouichirou Hiratsuka.
Fix provided by groff maintainer, Werner Lemberg.
Groff
-----
o The argument of the command line option `-I' is now also passed to troff
and grops, specifying a directory to search for files on the command line,
files named in `so' and `psbb' requests, and files named in \X'ps: file'
and \X'ps: import' escapes.
o If option `-V' is used more than once, the commands will be both printed
on standard error and run.
Troff
-----
o Two new read-only, string-valued registers `.m' and `.M' return the
name of the current drawing and background color, respectively.
o New read-only register `.U' which is set to 1 if in safer mode and set
to 0 if in unsafe mode.
o An input encoding file for latin-5 (a.k.a. ISO 8859-9) has been added.
Example use:
groff -Tdvi -mlatin5 my_file > my_file.dvi
Note that some output devices don't support all glyphs of this encoding.
o If the `return' request is called with an argument, it exits twice,
namely the current macro and the macro one level higher. This is
used to define a wrapper macro for `return' in trace.tmac.
o For completeness, two new requests have been added: `dei1' and `ami1'.
They are equivalent to `dei' and `ami', respectively, but the macros
are executed with compatibility mode off (similar to `de1' and `am1').
o New command line option `-I' to specify a directory for files (both
those on the command line and those named in `psbb' requests). This is
also handled by the groff wrapper program.
o Since version 1.19 you can say `.vs 0'. Older versions emit a warning
and convert this to `.vs \n[.V]'.
This hasn't been documented properly. Note that `.vs 0' isn't saved in a
diversion since it doesn't result in vertical motion.
Pic
___
o Dashed and dotted ellipses have been implemented.
Tbl
---
o New key character `x' to make tbl call a user-defined macro on a table
cell. Patch by Heinz-Jürgen Oertel <hj.oertel@surfeu.de>.
Grohtml
-------
o New option `-j' to emit output splitted into multiple files.
Grops
-----
o New command line option `-I' to specify a directory to search for files
on the command line and files named in \X'ps: import' and \X'ps: file'
escapes. This is also handled by the groff wrapper program.
o The default value for the `broken' keyword in the DESC file is now 0.
Grolj4
------
o A new man page `lj4_font(5)' documents how fonts are accessed with
grolj4.
o The built-in fonts for LJ4 and newer PCL 5 devices have been completely
revised, mainly to access as much glyphs as possible. The provided
metric files should be compatible with recent PCL 5 printers also.
Additionally, font description files have been added for the Arial and
Times New Roman family, the MS symbol, and Wingdings fonts.
Hpftodit
--------
o Completely revised to handle HP TrueType metric files also. See the
hpftodit manual page for more details.
Macro Packages
--------------
o www.tmac: New macro `JOBNAME' to split output into multiple files.
o In mdoc, multiple calls to `.Lb' are now supported in the LIBRARY
section.
Go back to activating thread debugging in new_objfile(), as well as
several other places, so that thread operations such as wait() can be
handled inside of the child_ops.create_inferior(). This addresses
spurious SIGTRAPs at the start of debugging threaded programs.
Make use of the libpthread_dbg suspend/resume interface to implement
single-thread stepping.
Be a little more sensible about the way IS_LWP and IS_THREAD work.
Don't try to look up mutex data for a spinlock sync object (ugh,
unions).
simplify GP handling on HPPA for NetBSD, and get dynamically-linked
executables working. Changes to be submitted to FSF:
bfd:
* config.bfd (hppa*-*-netbsd*): Set targ_defvec to
bfd_elf32_hppa_nbsd_vec. Add bfd_elf32_hppa_linux_vec
to targ_selvecs.
* configure.in (bfd_elf32_hppa_nbsd_vec): Add case.
* configure.in: Regenerate.
* elf32-hppa.c (elf32_hppa_object_p): Add "elf32-hppa-netbsd"
case that accepts OSABI=NetBSD and OSABI=SysV.
(elf32_hppa_set_gp): For "elf32-hppa-netbsd", set the GP to
the base of .got or .data (if .got does not exist).
(elf32_hppa_post_process_headers): For elf32-hppa-netbsd,
set OSABI=NetBSD.
(TARGET_BIG_SYM): Add bfd_elf32_hppa_nbsd_vec case.
(TARGET_BIG_NAME): Add "elf32-hppa-netbsd" case.
* targets.c (bfd_elf32_hppa_nbsd_vec): Add extern declaration.
(_bfd_target_vector): Add bfd_elf32_hppa_nbsd_vec.
gas:
* config/tc-hppa.h (TARGET_FORMAT): Set to "elf32-hppa-netbsd"
for TE_NetBSD.
ld:
* emulparams/hppanbsd.sh (OUTPUT_FORMAT): Set to "elf32-hppa-netbsd".
(1) The stock sendmail.cf will only listen on the loopback interface.
(2) The stock submit.cf specifally connects to "localhost." which
should be less susceptible to being confused or looking confused.
(3) The smtp listener starts by default, if needed. The setting in
/etc/default/rc.conf is still "no", but rc.d/sendmail detects the
default setting and will change it to yes if need is determined.
Need is defined as "nothing else seems to have been changed about the
mail configuration but we'd like locally originated and locally
destined mail to be delivered". If you change, eg, mailer.conf to
point to postfix or some other MTA, sendmail will not start.
Changes since 4.6:
4.7 (9 April 2004)
* Language:
. new commands @float, @caption, @shortcaption, @listoffloats for
initial implementation of floating material (figures, tables, etc).
Ironically, they do not yet actually float anywhere.
. new commands @docbook, @ifdocbook, @ifnotdocbook for conditional Docbook.
. new commands @ordf{} and @ordm{} for Spanish feminine/masculine ordinals.
. new commands @deftypecv[x] for class variables in typed OO languages.
. new command @registeredsymbol for the r-in-a-circle symbol.
. new command @headitem to make a heading row in @multitable.
. new command @LaTeX{} for the LaTeX logo.
. new command @comma{} to avoid comma-parsing problems.
. @url is now a synonym for @uref; new command @indicateurl has the
old meaning of just displaying a url as text.
. @quotation now accepts an optional argument for labelling the text
as a `Note', `Tip', etc.
. @defun (et al.) heading lines can now be continued with a lone @.
. @acronym accepts an optional argument for the meaning of the acronym.
* makeinfo:
. New environment variable TEXINFO_OUTPUT_FORMAT determines the output
format at runtime, if no options are specified.
. New option --plaintext, equivalent to --no-headers with Info output.
. All outputs:
- sections are numbered by default.
. Info output:
- punctuation is inserted after @pxref and @ref, if needed to make
cross-references valid.
- line numbers included in index menus, so Info readers can go to
the exact line of an entry, not just a node. Also in plaintext output.
- ^@^H[index^@^H] cookie included in index menus, so Info readers
can handle the ] etc. commands better.
. HTML output:
- new algorithm for cross-references to other manuals, for maximum
portability and stability.
- include node name in <title> with split output.
- @multicolumn fractions become percentages.
- entities used for bullets, quotes, dashes, and others.
- index entries are links to the exact locations.
- <h4> and <h5> used for @sub and @subsubsections again.
- accented dotless i supported.
. XML output: many new tags and structure to preserve more source features.
. Docbook output:
- upgraded DTD to Docbook XML 4.2, no longer using Docbook SGML.
- improved translation in general, for instance:
- line annotations and marked quotations.
* texi2dvi:
. if available, use etex (pdfetex if --pdf) by default.
. if the input file includes thumbpdf.sty (for LaTeX), then run thumbpdf.
. more output if --debug.
* texinfo.tex:
. @defun names are now printed in typewriter (instead of bold), and
within the arguments, @var text is printed in slanted typewriter.
. @tex code is executed inside a TeX group, so that any changes must
be prefixed with \global (or the equivalent) to be effective. (This
change was actually made years ago, but never made it into the NEWS.)
* info:
. new option --where (aka --location, -w) to report where an Info file
would be found, instead of reading it.
. by default, output ANSI terminal escape sequences as-is; new option
--no-raw-escapes overrides this.
. use the newly-generated index line numbers.
* Distribution:
. new script gendocs.sh (not installed), for use by GNU maintainers in
getting their manuals on the GNU web site. Documented in
maintain.texi (http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain_toc.html).
. Most code uses ANSI C prototypes, to some extent.
. New translation: nb.
. automake 1.8.3, autoconf 2.59, gettext 0.14.1.
is, use the symbol versioning script to remove certain symbols from the
dynamic symbol table.
Do the symbol versioning thing for all platforms.
Whilest our ld.elf_so(1) doesn't understand symbol versioning this
doesn't matter as all the exposed symbols appear unversioned until symbol
versioning support is added (if ever).
is defined - this causes that nothing usable is left unless we implement
enough of C99
(there is a change in gcc-3.4 which is similar in spirit)
should fix PR lib/25930 by Dan McMahill
(I've compiled the whole KDE with this modification successfully)
due to andoc.tmac being generated here and it'll end up in the depend tree
for installation (during dependall) if DESTDIR=/ and USETOOLS=no/never which
will lose for most people. Fixes final part of PR#23067
