New package: tdb-1.2.9-1

The following packages have been added to the Cygwin distribution:

*** tdb-1.2.9-1
*** libtdb1-1.2.9-1
*** libtdb-devel-1.2.9-1
*** python-tdb-1.2.9-1

TDB is a Trivial Database. In concept, it is very much like GDBM, and 
BSD's DB except that it allows multiple simultaneous writers and uses 
locking internally to keep writers from trampling on each other.

This package has been added as a new dependency of libcanberra.

Updated: automake1.11-1.11.3-1

Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's
suitable for use with Autoconf, compliant with the GNU Makefile
standards, and portable to various make implementations. This is
the first release in the automake-1.11 release series, and contains
the latest version of automake system, automake-1.11.

This is a routine update to the latest upstream version.

This cygwin package, automake1.11, can be installed without conflict
alongside the existing automake1.10, automake1.9, automake1.8,
automake1.7, automake1.6, automake1.5, and automake1.4 cygwin packages.

Changes (automake1.11-1.11.1-1 to automake1.11-1.11.3-1)
======================================================================
* Update to latest upstream release in the automake-1.11.x series.

Updated: cygport-0.10.10-1

I have just released cygport-0.10.10 for the Cygwin distribution and the
Fedora Cygwin repository.  New features in this release:

* Documentation is nearly complete.  Please let me know (via the list) 
if there is anything else which should be documented, or anything which 
should be fixed or added to the existing documentation.

* Only shared libtool libraries are built by default.  If you absolutely 
need static libraries (and if you're not absolutely sure why, you 
don't), add --disable-static to cygconf or CYGCONF_ARGS.

* .tar.lrz tarballs are now supported (requires lrzip).

* The "download" command only downloads source files/patches which are 
not already present.  If you need to replace these files with newly 
downloaded copies, use the "downloadall" command.

Changes in this release (21):
       mirrors: use new KDE mirror redirector
       xorg: add SRC_URI and GIT_URI for drivers
       unpack: add support for .tar.lrz
       autotools: disable static libtool libraries by default
       Add convenience function for static-only embedded targets
       Add another convenience function for static-only embedded hosts
       claws-mail: set KEEP_LA_FILES to none
       spec: do not rely on redhat-rpm-config behaviour
       dodoc: install directories recursively
       Differentiate between downloading all sources or only missing ones
       doc: fix S documentation
       doc: document packaging variables

Updated: gawk-4.0.1-1

I've updated the gawk package to 4.0.1-1.

This is the new upstream release.

Changes from 4.0.0 to 4.0.1
---------------------------

1. The default handling of backslash in sub() and gsub() has been reverted to
   the behavior of 3.1. It was silly to think I could break compatibility that
   way, even for standards compliance.

2. Completed the implementation of Rational Range Interpretation.

3. Failure to get the group set is no longer a fatal error.

4. Lots of minor bugs fixed and portability clean-ups along the way. See
   the ChangeLog for details.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin" link on the
http://cygwin.com web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.
