      Packit Service 2594b8
      Packit Service 2594b8
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • configure now captures significantly more information
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           in the config.log file and provides more information when
        Packit Service 2594b8
           it is unable to setup a configuration
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • support was added for building shared libraries on more systems:
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           AIX, HPUX, Solaris, and Linux.
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • a new configuration parameter <TT>LIBCOPTS</TT> was added for
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           passing arguments to the C compiler to use when building only
        Packit Service 2594b8
           the library; this is part of the enhanced support for building
        Packit Service 2594b8
           shared libraries
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • include files for optional packages that reside in /usr/include
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           are now handled correctly
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • build trees may now be configured using either relative or absolute
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           pathnames to the source distribution
        Packit Service 2594b8
      • several new configuration parameters were added, mainly for building
      • Packit Service 2594b8
           shared libraries: <TT>DIST_MAJOR</TT>, <TT>DIST_MINOR</TT>, 
        Packit Service 2594b8
           <TT>DIST_ALPHA</TT>, and <TT>DSOSUF_VERSION</TT>

        Packit Service 2594b8
          Packit Service 2594b8
        • the Deflate support has been revised: it requires version 0.99 of
        • Packit Service 2594b8
             the zlib software distribution, the output format has changed and
          Packit Service 2594b8
             is incompatible with previous versions of this library (each
          Packit Service 2594b8
             strip now includes a header read and written by the zlib library)
          Packit Service 2594b8
        • the codec name printed by the TIFFPrintDirectory routine is now
        • Packit Service 2594b8
             taken from the codec table instead of from a builtin table; this means
          Packit Service 2594b8
             that application-defined codecs are handled correctly
          Packit Service 2594b8
        • a new symbol was added that contains the library version number;
        • Packit Service 2594b8
             this can be used to do a compile-time compatibility check of the
          Packit Service 2594b8
             library version

          • the creation and installation of manual pages was redone; it now
