in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.

========================================================================
Release Notes for PCB snapshot 20040903
========================================================================
- enable -Wall when compiling with gcc. Many compiler warnings have
been fixed.
- add a short man page which refers the user to the real documentation
- Added ExecuteFile(file) action which allows the execution of several
actions contained in a text file.
- Added -script <file> flag which specifies a file containing actions
to be executed upon startup.
- Various documentation improvements
- Protect some gcc extensions with tests for gcc. This allows
compilation with the IRIX c compiler.
- Add support for a background image in the drawing area which can
help in importing a layout from a scanned image.
- Updated the ~geda library 150 and 300 mil width SOIC packages
to remove silk on pads and to more closely follow the IPC
recommendations
- Added support for menu accelerators.
- segfault when breaking apart an element with no element selected
bug fixed.
- autorouter improvements
- added more 400mil DIP packages to ~geda library
- fix a trace optimizer bug which produced a segfault
- other various bug fixes

Release Notes for PCB snapshot 20040530
========================================================================
This has been an exciting 3 months for PCB. Many improvements have
been made in the program as well as additions and improvements to the
footprint library. Thanks to everyone who has provided feedback,
patches, etc.
----------------------
Additions/Improvements
----------------------
- Expanded DRC checking
- "Realtime" DRC checking
- DRC settings are now stored in the board fle
- Centroid (X-Y) and bill of materials output
- Dynamic menus. Users can now customize the menus via a
site-wide, per-user, or per-project menu resource file.
- Significant improvements to autorouting of congested designs.
- Autorouter can now use power planes.
- Improved appearance in autorouter output.
- Silk on pads/pins is clipped in RS-274-X output
- Ordering is preserved when writing output files so that diff
may be effectively used on pcb files.
- The autoplace feature now actually works
- Added ToggleVisibility action
- Most of the database is now kept in rtrees which avoids linear
searches. This speeds up operation significantly.
- Added SetFlag, ClrFlag, ChangeFlag actions
---------
Bug Fixes
---------
- pin/pad bounding box calculation fixed. Components can
now be placed closer to the edge of the board.
- miter trace optimization bug.
- Fix bug with pins which are enclosed by multiple polygons.
- Shorts to unnamed elements and pins are handled correctly.
- Various memory leaks fixed.
- Fixed some bugs with a really high zoom.
- Fixed default media selection in postscript print dialog
- Fix some DRC bugs with square pins.
------------------
Footprint Library:
------------------
- Added SOJ footprint family (~geda library)
- Added CTS series 742/3/4/5/6 resistor pack footprints (~cts library)
- Added PKG_CONNECTOR_DIL macro to let the HEADER*_1 footprints work
(~geda library)
- Correct the SDIP footprints (~geda library)
- Correct some Minicircuits footprints (~minicircuits library)
- Correct some panasonic footprints (~panasonic library)
- Change refdes silk size for sockets (~johnstech library)
- Increase soldermask relief on some mounting holes
(~johnstech library)
- Convert the COMMON_SMT_DIL_MIL and COMMON_SMT_DIL_MM macros
used by several other libraries to the hi-res format.
- Correct pin count on 100 pin QFP packages (100 not 72)
(~geda library)
- Correct pin count on HEADER60_2 (60 not 50) (~geda library)

with 8.4 will be updated to depend on x11/tk after Tk update.

A partial list of what's new is:
- Internal resolution changed to 0.01 mil from 1.0 mil
- Improved DRC checking
- Mirroring/rotating of buffers
- Undo works on trace optimizations
- Fixed polygon undo bugs
- Fix arc DRC bugs
- Added local measurement for line drawing
- Added mode for polygon viewing to help examing planes
- Added new footprint libraries (amp, amphenol, bourns, johnstech,
minicircuits, panasonic)
- Added new footprints to the geda library
- Other bug fixes

Pcb - X11 interactive printed circuit board layout system.
Pcb is a handy tool for the X Window System to design printed
circuit boards. All coordinate units are 1/1000 inch.
Please note that this package is a development snapshot and while it contains
the latest and greatest features, it may be buggy as well. There is a seperate
pcb package which is made of the stable releases.
