Changes in release 0.32.1:
* Fix configure CFLAGS handling in Kerberos detection.
* Various spelling fixes.
Changes in release 0.32.0:
* Interface changes:
- API and ABI backwards-compatible with 0.27.x and later
- NE_AUTH_DIGEST now only enables RFC 2617/7616 auth by default;
to enable weaker RFC 2069 Digest, use NE_AUTH_LEGACY_DIGEST
(treated as a security enhancement, not an API/ABI break)
* Interface clarifications:
- ne_auth.h: use of non-ASCII usernames with the ne_auth_creds
callback type is now rejected for Digest auth since the
encoding is not specified. ne_add_auth() can be used instead.
- ne_request.h: the ne_create_request_fn callback is passed the
request-target using RFC 7230 terminology
* New interfaces and features:
- ne_string.h: added ne_strhash(), ne_vstrhash(), ne_strparam()
- ne_auth.h: added RFC 7616 (Digest authentication) support,
including userhash=, username*= and SHA-2 algorithms
(SHA-2 requires GnuTLS/OpenSSL). added NE_AUTH_LEGACY_DIGEST
- ne_auth.h: added ne_add_auth() unified auth callback interface,
accepts (only) UTF-8 usernames, uses a larger password buffer,
and has different/improved attempt counter semantics.
- RFC 7617 scoping rules are now applied for Basic authentication.
- ne_ssl.h: added ne_ssl_cert_hdigest()
- ne_socket.h: added ne_sock_shutdown()
- sendmsg()/send() are used with the MSG_NOSIGNAL flag to write to
sockets on Unix, rather than write()/writev(), avoiding SIGPIPE
- explicit_bzero() is used where available to clear credentials
* Bug fixes:
- fixed TLS connection shutdown handling for OpenSSL 3
- fix various Coverity and cppcheck warnings (Sebastian Reschke)
- Kerberos library detection uses pkg-config where possible.
- fix some configure checks on Win32 (Christopher Degawa)
- fix some configure errors on MacOS (Ryan Schmidt)

All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

* Improved address resolver (ne_addr_*) replacing ne_name_lookup():
- use getaddrinfo() if found; include support for IPv6 (based on work
by Noriaki Takamiya)
* For a hostname with multiple addresses, each address is tried in turn
until a connection is made.
* RFC2818 compliance for certificate identity checks in SSL:

'port' field of the ne_uri structure to use an unsigned int for port numbers
* ne_uri_defaultport returns unsigned and '0' on an unknown port (not -1).
* Changes to hooks interface:
- pass an ne_request pointer to per-request hooks
- replace "accessor" hooks with ne_{get,set}_{request,session}_private
* Authentication changes:
- the hooks changes fix a segfault if auth is enabled for an SSL session
through a proxy server
- fix ne_forget_auth segfault if either proxy or server auth are not used
* Improvements to persistent connection retry logic and error handling
in request code; fixing some cases where some errors where incorrectly
treated as a persistent connection timeout
- a TCP RST at the appropriate time is now treated as a persistent
connection timeout.
- handle persistent connection timeouts on SSL connections
* Changes to SSL support:
- improved error handling
- fix for proxy CONNECT tunnelling with some proxies (e.g. Traffic-Server)
- fix potential segfault if client cert. provider callback is used
- fix to use supplied password callback for PEM-encoded client certificates
(Daniel Berlin)
* Remove ne_read_file().
* ne_version_match replaces ne_version_minimum (semantics changed slightly).
* XML request bodies use a content-type of "application/xml" now;
applications can use NE_XML_MEDIA_TYPE from ne_xml.h

buildlink2 infrastructure to start merging other packages from the
buildlink2 branch that have already been converted to use the buildlink2
framework.

Changes in release 0.21.3:
* Fix segfault if using proxy server with SSL session and server
certificate verification fails.
* Fix leak of proxy hostname once per session (if a proxy is used).
* Add --with-libs configure argument; e.g. --with-libs=/usr/local picks
up any support libraries in /usr/local/{lib,include}

* More optimisation of ne_sock_readline.
Changes in release 0.21.1:
* Don't include default SSL port in Host request header, which can
help interoperability with misbehaving servers (thanks to Rodney Dawes
<dobey@ximian.com>).
* Don't give a "truncated response" error from ne_decompress_destroy if
the acceptance function returns non-zero.
* Fix for Win32 build (Sander Striker <striker@apache.org>).
* Fix for cookie name/value being free()d (thanks to Dan Mullen).

and parts of ne_session.h and ne_request.h.
- see installed man pages, HTML documentation.
Changes in release 0.20.0:
* Major changes to DAV lock handling interface (ne_locks.h):
- struct ne_lock uses a full URI structure to identify locked resource
- ne_lock() requires that owner/token fields are malloc-allocated (or NULL)
on entry
- introduce a "lock store" type, ne_lock_store, to replace the lock session;
accessor functions all renamed to ne_lockstore_*.
- ne_lock_iterate replaced with a first/next "cursor"-style interface

- fix for handling shared locks on DAV servers which return many active locks
in the LOCK response (thanks to Keith Wannamaker)
* Moved URI/path manipulation functions under ne_* namespace (ne_uri.h):
- path handling functions renamed to ne_path_*

- ne_uri_parse doesn't take a 'defaults' parameter any more
- if URI port is unspecified, ne_uri_parse sets port to 0 not -1.
- added ne_uri_unparse and ne_uri_defaultport functions.
* New 'ne_fill_server_uri' function to initialize a URI structure with
the server details for a given session (useful with locks interface).
* ne_decompress_{reader,destroy} are defined as passthrough-functions
if zlib support is not enabled.
* API change: ne_ssl_provide_fn returns void not int.
* Added NE_SSL_FAILMASK for verify failure sanity check.
* Removed return codes NE_SERVERAUTH and and NE_AUTHPROXY; correct
documentation, NE_PROXYAUTH is given for proxy auth failure.
* Require zlib >= 1.1.4 to avoid possible vulnerability in earlier versions.
See http://www.gzip.org/zlib/advisory-2002-03-11.txt for more details.
(version check can be skipped by passing --with-force-zlib to configure)
* New 'ne_ssl_readable_dname' function to create a human-readable string
from an X509 distinguished name.
* Fix support for newer versions of libxml2 (thanks to Jon Trowbridge
<trow@gnu.org>).
* Fix corruption of reason_phrase in status object returned by
ne_propset_status.

and reviewed by the maintainer, Eric Gillespie <epg@pretzelnet.org>.
Major version changed so that BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.neon bumped.
Part of changes from NEWS:
Changes in release 0.19.1-0.19.3:
* For platforms lacking snprintf or vsnprintf in libc, require trio.
* Add NE_FMT_OFF_T to fix Win32 build (Dan Berlin, Branko Èibej).
* Fix non-SSL build broken in 0.19.1.
* Working SOCKSv5 support (thanks to Torsten Kalix <torsten.kalix@bredex.de>)
* Add missing stubs for ne_ssl_* functions for non-SSL build.
* Fix some error messages in new SSL code.
Changes in release 0.19.0:
* Major API change: ne_session_create now takes (scheme, hostname, port)
arguments: a session is clarified to be "a group of requests to a
certain server".
- removal of ne_session_server, ne_set_secure, and ne_set_proxy_decider
- ne_session_proxy returns void.

- add server cert verification callback. An SSL connection to a server
with an unknown CA will now fail unless a verification callback is used.
- enable SSL session caching (performance improvement)
- support for wildcard server certs where commonName is "*.example.com".
- thanks to Tommi Komulainen for the contribution of code from mutt's
IMAP/SSL implementation under the LGPL, from which bits of this were derived.
Changes in release 0.18.4-0.18.5:
* Removed old neon.dsp, neon.dsw.
* Update Win32 build to add OpenSSL and zlib support (Branko Èibej).
* Fixes for Content-Type parsing using ne_content_type_handler (Greg Stein)
- also now parses the charset parameter from header value.
* Removed ne_concat() function, which didn't work and wasn't used.

neon is an HTTP and WebDAV client library. It provides lower-level
interfaces which directly implement new HTTP methods, and higher-level
interfaces so that you don't have to worry about the lower-level
stuff.
Provided in PR 15222 by "Eric Gillespie, Jr." <epg@pretzelnet.org>.
The only modification was to use pkgsrc's libtool.
