This is a terse description of the new features added to bash-3.1 since
the release of bash-3.0. As always, the manual page (doc/bash.1) is
the place to look for complete descriptions.
1. New Features in Bash
a. Bash now understands LC_TIME as a special variable so that time display
tracks the current locale.
b. BASH_ARGC, BASH_ARGV, BASH_SOURCE, and BASH_LINENO are no longer created
as `invisible' variables and may not be unset.
c. In POSIX mode, if `xpg_echo' option is enabled, the `echo' builtin doesn't
try to interpret any options at all, as POSIX requires.
d. The `bg' builtin now accepts multiple arguments, as POSIX seems to specify.
e. Fixed vi-mode word completion and glob expansion to perform tilde
expansion.
f. The `**' mathematic exponentiation operator is now right-associative.
g. The `ulimit' builtin has new options: -i (max number of pending signals),
-q (max size of POSIX message queues), and -x (max number of file locks).
h. A bare `%' once again expands to the current job when used as a job
specifier.
i. The `+=' assignment operator (append to the value of a string or array) is
now supported for assignment statements and arguments to builtin commands
that accept assignment statements.
j. BASH_COMMAND now preserves its value when a DEBUG trap is executed.
k. The `gnu_errfmt' option is enabled automatically if the shell is running
in an emacs terminal window.
l. New configuration option: --single-help-strings. Causes long help text
to be written as a single string; intended to ease translation.
m. The COMP_WORDBREAKS variable now causes the list of word break characters
to be emptied when the variable is unset.
n. An unquoted expansion of $* when $IFS is empty now causes the positional
parameters to be concatenated if the expansion doesn't undergo word
splitting.
o. Bash now inherits $_ from the environment if it appears there at startup.
p. New shell option: nocasematch. If non-zero, shell pattern matching ignores
case when used by `case' and `[[' commands.
q. The `printf' builtin takes a new option: -v var. That causes the output
to be placed into var instead of on stdout.
r. By default, the shell no longer reports processes dying from SIGPIPE.
s. Bash now sets the extern variable `environ' to the export environment it
creates, so C library functions that call getenv() (and can't use the
shell-provided replacement) get current values of environment variables.
t. A new configuration option, `--enable-strict-posix-default', which will
build bash to be POSIX conforming by default.
u. If compiled for strict POSIX conformance, LINES and COLUMNS may now
override the true terminal size.
2. New Features in Readline
a. The key sequence sent by the keypad `delete' key is now automatically
bound to delete-char.
b. A negative argument to menu-complete now cycles backward through the
completion list.
c. A new bindable readline variable: bind-tty-special-chars. If non-zero,
readline will bind the terminal special characters to their readline
equivalents when it's called (on by default).
d. New bindable command: vi-rubout. Saves deleted text for possible
reinsertion, as with any vi-mode `text modification' command; `X' is bound
to this in vi command mode.
e. A new external application-controllable variable that allows the LINES
and COLUMNS environment variables to set the window size regardless of
what the kernel returns: rl_prefer_env_winsize

automatically detects whether we want the pkginstall machinery to be
used by the package Makefile.
|
|
Note that scp compatibility is now disabled and that the only
recommended way of using scponly is with sftp.
|
|
Note that this is (mostly) a security fix release.
Changes since last packaged version (2.2.3):
2.3.0
- modified chroot_helper to parse the config file, to avoid arbitrary
chroot() (and thus root compromise)
- numerous documentation updates
- fix for va_start()/va_end()-related segfault on 64-bit architecture
- small bit of code cleanup

DEFAULT_PATH_VALUE as /usr/bin:/bin:${LOCALBASE}/bin:/usr/local/bin
(Instead of having non-existent default PATH directories.)
Bump PKGREVISION.
This is for PR 25044.

3.0. If one of these is important to you, please fix it in time
for pkgsrc-2006Q1, or it may be removed.

Better DragonFly support, new complete functions (arch_archives,
arch_namespace, bzr, cplay, date, dchroot, dlocate, dpkg-cross,
git, madison, module-assistant, piuparts, quilt, toolchain-source,
urxvt, and xpdf), bug fixes, etc.

example MAKE_ENV+=FOO=${BAR} is changed to MAKE_ENV+=FOO=${BAR:Q}. Some
other changes are outlined in

This is a port of various original plan9 tools for Unix based on
plan9ports [1], mk-with-libs.tgz [2] and wmii [3].

one doesn't exist. From now on, we only add the listed PKG_SHELL to
the /etc/shells file if it already exists. This fixes PR pkg/27162.

- Changed IRIX, Interix, Linux and OpenBSD share PLIST.terminfo,
instead of PLIST for each OS.
- zsh doesn't build libzsh-4.2.5.so on OpenBSD, so PLIST.shlibs
should be excluded.

of Perl files to deal with the perl-5.8.7 update that moved all
pkgsrc-installed Perl files into the "vendor" directories.

+SHELL.
* Turn PKG_REGISTER_SHELLS into a variable that can be set in the shell
environment so that admins can make a choice when installing from
binary packages.
* PKG_SHELL is now a list of paths, and if the path is relative, then it
is taken to be relative to ${PREFIX}. Convert packages that set
PKG_SHELL to take advantage of this new feature by changing the full
paths to the shells into relative paths.

from including perl5/buildlink3.mk. These packages just need the Perl
interpreter, and can just add "perl" to USE_TOOLS instead.
|
|
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
|
|
PKGSRC_USE_TOOLS go away. There is now only a single USE_TOOLS variable
that specifies all of the tools we need to build/run the package.
|
|
|
|
These paths are now relative to PERL5_PACKLIST_DIR, which currently
defaults to ${PERL5_SITEARCH}. There is no change to the binary
packages.

because Darwin needs it (which is probably not true either). Bump package
revision after the damage from the previous revision has been fixed.

PKGREVISION due to the added dependency. This should fix PR pkg/30601.
While here, set BUILDLINK_DEPMETHOD of dependent libraries to "build"
when the "static" option is enabled.
