[1.5] Updated: {gettext/gettext-devel/libgettextpo0/libintl8/libasprintf0}-0.17-3

gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support'
for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs.

This is a packaging and bugfix update of the gettext package(s).  This
will most likely be the final gettext update for the cygwin-1.5
distribution; future development will continue with gettext-0.17-10 for
cygwin-1.7.

    gettext-0.17-3
    gettext-devel-0.17-3
    libintl8-0.17-3
    libgettextpo0-0.17-3
    libasprintf0-0.17-3

CHANGES (gettext-0.17-1 ---> gettext-0.17-10):
(includes changes in the released but un-announced gettext-0.17-2)

* Fixed packaging bug in setup.hint for libasprintf0
* Fixed a bug in lib-link.m4 exposed when dependent libraries
  are installed in different directories. Also fixed upstream
  (in future gettext-0.18).
* Fixed an issue in the rpath (e.g. lib-link.m4) test suite
  where only the installed .m4 files were tested, rather than
  the in-package ones. This explains (and corrects) the
  odd rpath test results in gettext-0.17-1. See
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2008-11/msg00015.html
* Modified the rpath (e.g. lib-link.m4) test suite so that the
  tests continue to pass. As it happens, in gettext-0.15.1-X
  and previous, these tests never should have passed; they
  were erroneously linking statically. Now they link shared,

[1.7] Updated: {gettext/gettext-devel/libgettextpo0/libintl8/libasprintf0}-0.17-10

gettext is the GNU package which provides 'national language support'
for other programs. It includes a number of utility programs.

This is the first release specific for cygwin-1.7.  The only differences
between this package and the simultaneously-released gettext-0.17-3
for cygwin-1.5 are (1) compiled against the cygwin-1.7 DLL and its
import library, and (2) documentation changes.

COMPILER USED: gcc-3.4.4-3 and g++-3.4.4-3
This is important to note, because libasprintf0 is a C++ library. Later
updates MAY use gcc-4.3, but will be accompanied by DLL version number
bumps for all C and C++ dlls.

These packages should be updated together with libiconv 1.12-10:

    libiconv-1.12-10
    libiconv2-1.12-10
    libcharset1-1.12-10

    gettext-0.17-10
    gettext-devel-0.17-10
    libintl8-0.17-10
    libgettextpo0-0.17-10
    libasprintf0-0.17-10

[1.7] Updated: {libiconv/libiconv2/libcharset1}-0.12-10

The GNU libiconv package provides an iconv() implementation, for use on
systems which don't have one, or whose implementation cannot convert
from/to Unicode.

This is the first release specific for cygwin-1.7.  The only differences
between this package and the earlier libiconv-0.12-1 (released for both
cygwin-1.5 and cygwin-1.7) are (1) compiled against the cygwin-1.7 DLL
and its import library, and (2) documentation changes. There is no
corresponding "simultaneously released" version of libiconv solely for
cygwin-1.5; libiconv-0.12-1 will most likely be the final libiconv
update for the cygwin-1.5 distribution, and future libiconv development
will continue with this libiconv-0.12-10 package for cygwin-1.7 only.

COMPILER USED: gcc-3.4.4-3 and g++-3.4.4-3
Later updates MAY use gcc-4.3, but will be accompanied by DLL version
number bumps for all C dlls.

Changes (libiconv-0.12-1 ---> libiconv-0.12-10)

* Fork from cygwin-1.5 package development stream
* Updated packaging to use (cygwin-1.7-specific) cygport 0.9.2
  rather than legacy cygport 0.4.x.

TESTSUITE RESULTS:
All tests pass.

New: gcc-tools-autoconf-2.59-2

This is an unmodified version of autoconf-2.59, installed into
/opt/gcc-tools/ for the use of gcc developers. Gcc requires
an unpatched, pristine version of autoconf when preparing patches
for official submission. For various reasons [1] it cannot coexist with
the existing autoconf packages in /usr.

Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell
scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.

The gcc-tools-autoconf-2.59-2 package was prepared on and for cygwin-1.5
using cygport-0.4.0. It differs from the simultaneously released
gcc-tools-autoconf-2.59-10 for cygwin-1.7 only in the location of some
documentation files.

Updated: openssl-0.9.8j-1, openssl-devel-0.9.8j-1

I've updated the version of OpenSSL to 0.9.8j-1.  This also includes the
openssl-devel package.

This is an upstream security and bugfix release.  The Cygwin release is
the vanilla version, no additional patches.

OpenSSL Security Advisory:
=======================================================================
OpenSSL Security Advisory [07-Jan-2009]

Incorrect checks for malformed signatures
- -------------------------------------------

Several functions inside OpenSSL incorrectly checked the result after
calling the EVP_VerifyFinal function, allowing a malformed signature
to be treated as a good signature rather than as an error.  This issue
affected the signature checks on DSA and ECDSA keys used with
SSL/TLS.

One way to exploit this flaw would be for a remote attacker who is in
control of a malicious server or who can use a 'man in the middle'
attack to present a malformed SSL/TLS signature from a certificate chain
to a vulnerable client, bypassing validation.

This vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2008-5077.

The OpenSSL security team would like to thank the Google Security Team
for reporting this issue.

Who is affected?
