Updated: pristine-tar 1.18-1 -- Regenerate pristine tarballs


PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================

Homepage: http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/pristine-tar
License : GPL-2+, BSD-2-Clause

Regenerate pristine tarballs

Regenerate a pristine upstream tarball using only a small binary delta
file and a revision control checkout of the upstream branch. The
package also includes a pristine-gz command, which can regenerate a
pristine .gz file, and a pristine-bz2 for .bz2 files. The delta file
is designed to be checked into revision control along-side the
upstream branch, thus allowing Debian packages to be built entirely
using sources in revision control, without the need to keep copies of
upstream tarballs.

See documenation at
http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/generating_pristine_tarballs_from_git_repositories/

CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE
==========================

Add XZ support.

Updated: libvorbis/libvorbis-devel/libvorbis0/libvorbisenc2/libvorbisfile3-1.3.3-1

A new version of the libvorbis, libvorbis-devel, libvorbis0,
libvorbisenc2, and libvorbisfile3 packages are now available for
download.

DESCRIPTION:
============
Vorbis is a general purpose audio and music encoding format
contemporary to MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond
MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats (and other
proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2 and Windows' flavor of the
month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public
domain. All the technical details are published and documented, and
any software entity may make full use of the format without license
fee, royalty or patent concerns.

This package contains:

* libvorbis, a BSD-style license software implementation of
  the Vorbis specification by the Xiph.Org Foundation
  (http://www.xiph.org/)

* libvorbisfile, a BSD-style license convenience library
  built on Vorbis designed to simplify common uses

* libvorbisenc, a BSD-style license library that provides a simple,
  programmatic encoding setup interface

Updated: cygwin-1.7.10-1

Hi Cygwin friends and users,

I just released 1.7.10-1.  It introduces a couple of new APIs and some
changes which are supposed to reduce fork problems.  And lots of other
stuff.  Just read on.  for a start, here are the most distinct changes
from old behaviour:

- 1.7.10 drops support for Windows NT4 to reduce the amount of legacy code.

- The CYGWIN=tty mode has been removed.  Either just use the normal Windows
  console as is, or use a terminal application like mintty.

- New heap management.  Drop registry setting "heap_chunk_in_mb" entirely
  in favor of a new per-executable setting in the executable file header
  which can be set using the peflags tool (see `peflags --cygwin-heap').

As always, please have another look into the documentation at
http://cygwin.com/docs.html.  It contains a few improvements and the
description for new features and changes from old behaviour.

What's new:
-----------

- New getconf tool for querying confstr(3), pathconf(3), sysconf(3), and
  limits.h configuration.

- New tzset utility to generate a POSIX-compatible TZ environment
  variable from the Windows timezone settings.

- The passwd tool now allows an administrator to use the -R command for

Updated [experimental]: coreutils-8.15-1

An updated package, coreutils-8.15-1 release has been uploaded and will
soon reach a mirror near you.  This release will remain experimental
until a corresponding update to cygutils is ready.  It is recommended
that you update both packages at once to properly pick up the transition
of the realpath executable between the two packages; if you upgrade
coreutils separately from cygutils, you may have to rerun setup.exe and
reinstall coreutils in order to get realpath back on your system.

NEWS:
=====
This is a new upstream release, with upstream details listed below.  It
is built against several new cygwin 1.7.10 features.  It also includes a
backport of some post-8.15 changes to make realpath properly handle
paths starting with //.

If you encounter a regression, please report it here rather than
upstream.  See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils/.

Help in porting the stdbuf utility to cygwin would be appreciated.

DESCRIPTION:
============
GNU coreutils provides a collection of commonly used utilities essential
to a standard POSIX environment.  It comprises the former textutils,
sh-utils, and fileutils packages.  The following executables are included:

[ arch base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm cp
csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du echo env expand expr
factor false fmt fold gkill groups head hostid hostname id install join
link ln logname ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mknod mktemp mv nice nl nohup
