      Packit 85355f
      Packit 85355f
        Packit 85355f
      • configure now captures significantly more information
      • Packit 85355f
           in the config.log file and provides more information when
        Packit 85355f
           it is unable to setup a configuration
        Packit 85355f
      • support was added for building shared libraries on more systems:
      • Packit 85355f
           AIX, HPUX, Solaris, and Linux.
        Packit 85355f
      • a new configuration parameter <TT>LIBCOPTS</TT> was added for
      • Packit 85355f
           passing arguments to the C compiler to use when building only
        Packit 85355f
           the library; this is part of the enhanced support for building
        Packit 85355f
           shared libraries
        Packit 85355f
      • include files for optional packages that reside in /usr/include
      • Packit 85355f
           are now handled correctly
        Packit 85355f
      • build trees may now be configured using either relative or absolute
      • Packit 85355f
           pathnames to the source distribution
        Packit 85355f
      • several new configuration parameters were added, mainly for building
      • Packit 85355f
           shared libraries: <TT>DIST_MAJOR</TT>, <TT>DIST_MINOR</TT>, 
        Packit 85355f
           <TT>DIST_ALPHA</TT>, and <TT>DSOSUF_VERSION</TT>

        Packit 85355f

        • the Deflate support has been revised: it requires version 0.99 of
        • Packit 85355f
             the zlib software distribution, the output format has changed and
          Packit 85355f
             is incompatible with previous versions of this library (each
          Packit 85355f
             strip now includes a header read and written by the zlib library)
          Packit 85355f
        • the codec name printed by the TIFFPrintDirectory routine is now
        • Packit 85355f
             taken from the codec table instead of from a builtin table; this means
          Packit 85355f
             that application-defined codecs are handled correctly
          Packit 85355f
        • a new symbol was added that contains the library version number;
        • Packit 85355f
             this can be used to do a compile-time compatibility check of the
          Packit 85355f
             library version
