out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.

for 1.8.1 was replaced with 1.8.3.
|

The 1.7.3 distribution file now contains 1.8.1; lame.

* Build process no longer uses configure.
* Change DESCR to reflect that gd makes PNG, not GIF, files.
* Version library at 1.7. Fixes PR#????
Changes from version 1.6.3:
--------------------------
What's new in version 1.7.3?
Another attempt at Makefile fixes to permit linking with all libraries
required on platforms with order- dependent linkers. Perhaps it will
work this time.
What's new in version 1.7.2?
An uninitialized-pointer bug in gdtestttf.c was corrected. This bug
caused crashes at the end of each call to gdImageStringTTF on some
platforms. Thanks to Wolfgang Haefelinger.
Documentation fixes. Thanks to Dohn Arms.
Makefile fixes to permit linking with all libraries required on

What's new in version 1.7.1?
A minor buglet in the Makefile was corrected, as well as an inaccurate
error message in gdtestttf.c. Thanks to Masahito Yamaga.
What's new in version 1.7?
Version 1.7 contains the following changes:
* Japanese language support for the TrueType functions. Thanks to
Masahito Yamaga.
* autoconf and configure have been removed, in favor of a carefully
designed Makefile which produces and properly installs the library
and the binaries. System-dependent variables are at the top of the
Makefile for easy modification. I'm sorry, folks, but autoconf
generated _many, many confused email messages_ from people who
didn't have things where autoconf expected to find them. I am not
an autoconf/automake wizard, and gd is a simple, very compact
library which does not need to be a shared library. I _did_ make
many improvements over the old gd 1.3 Makefile, which were
directly inspired by the autoconf version found in the 1.6 series
(thanks to John Ellson).
* Completely ANSI C compliant, according to the -pedantic-errors
flag of gcc. Several pieces of not-quite-ANSI-C code were causing
problems for those with non-gcc compilers.
* gdttf.c patched to allow the use of Windows symbol fonts, when
present (thanks to Joseph Peppin).
* extern "C" wrappers added to gd.h and the font header files for
the convenience of C++ programmers. bdftogd was also modified to
automatically insert these wrappers into future font header files.
Thanks to John Lindal.
* Compiles correctly on platforms that don't define SEEK_SET. Thanks
to Robert Bonomi.
* Loads Xpm images via the gdImageCreateFromXpm function, if the Xpm
library is available. Thanks to Caolan McNamara.

Changes from previous version include:
+ Version 1.6.3 corrects a memory leak in gd_png.c. This leak caused a
significant amount of memory to be allocated and not freed when
writing a PNG image.
+ Version 1.6.2 from John Ellson adds two new functions:
gdImageStringTTF gdImageColorResolve
+ Version 1.6.1 incorporates superior PNG reading and writing code
from Greg Roelofs, with minor modifications by Tom Boutell.
+ Version 1.6 features the following changes:
Support for 8-bit palette PNG images has been added. Support for GIF
has been removed. This step was taken to completely avoid the legal
controversy regarding the LZW compression algorithm used in GIF.
Unisys holds a patent which is relevant to LZW compression. PNG is a
superior image format in any case. Now that PNG is supported by both
Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape (in their recent releases),
we highly recommend that GD users upgrade in order to get
well-compressed images in a format which is legally unemcumbered.
+ Version 1.5 featured the following changes:
New GD2 format
Re-arranged source files
Extended I/O capabilities.
Better support for Lincoln Stein's Perl Module
Added functions
+ Version 1.4 features the following changes:
Fixed polygon fill routine (again)
Support for alternate data sources
Support for alternate data destinations
More tolerant when reading GIFs
