6 - pkgadd: improved support for automatically removing
7 rejected files that are identical to already installed files.
8 - pkgmk: added support for resuming interrupted downloads.
9 Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann <jw@tks6.net>
10 - pkgmk: added option -cm/--check-md5sum, which checks the

12 - libtar: fixed bug in symlink handling.
13 Thanks to Guillaume Bibaut <guillaume.bibaut@free.fr>
14
155.18 - Released 2004-05-16

18 Thanks to Han Boetes <han@mijncomputer.nl>
19 - rejmerge: file diffs/merges are now piped through more(1).
20 - pkgadd/pkgrm: fixed a bug that could result in a corrupt
21 database when running low on disk space.
22 - pkgadd: directories can now be specified in rules in
23 pkgadd.conf. (This fix was supposed to be part of the 5.14
24 release, but was forgotten and actually never included).
25
265.17 - Released 2004-05-10
27 - Fixed two bugs in rejmerge.
28

45
465.13 - Released 2003-12-16
47 - Removed "link to ..." from .footprint.
48 - pkgmk now allows the source=() array to be empty. This
49 is useful for packages that only want create directory
50 structures and/or symlinks.
51
525.12 - Released 2003-11-30
53 - Added support for .nostrip, an optional file containing
54 regular expressions matching files that should not be
55 stripped. Thanks to Dave Hatton <mail@davehatton.it>
56
575.11 - Released 2003-11-27
58 - Fixed bug in footprint generation.
59 - Fixed bug in file stripping.
60
615.10 - Released 2003-11-08
62 - pkginfo: Added option -f/--footprint, which generates a
63 package footprint. The old method for generating footprints
64 failed in special cases.
65 - pkgmk: Updated to use pkginfo -f when creating footprints.
66 - pkgmk: Fixed bug in man page compression.
67 - pkgmk: Removed support for ROOT in Pkgfiles, use PKGMK_ROOT
68 instead.
69 - pkgmk: Removed support for SOURCE_DIR, PACKAGE_DIR and
70 WORK_DIR, use PKGMK_SOURCE_DIR, PKGMK_PACKAGE_DIR and
71 PKGMK_WORK_DIR instead.
72
735.9 - Released 2003-10-19
74 - Fixed bug in database backup code.
75 - Rejected files that are empty or equal to the already
76 installed version are now automatically removed.
77
785.8 - Released 2003-10-03
79 - Fixed memory leak in pkgadd.
80 - Patched libtar to fix memory leak.
81 - Patched libtar to reduce memory usage.
82 - Updated default pkgadd.conf.
83
845.7 - Released 2003-07-31
85 - pkgmk: Reintroduced the $ROOT variable.
86
875.6 - Released 2003-07-05
88 - pkgmk: Added automatic stripping of libraries (can be
89 disabled with -ns/--no-strip).
90 - pkgmk: Added option -if/--ignore-footprint, which builds a
91 package without checking the footprint.
92 - pkgmk: Synchronized names of variables exposed in pkgmk.conf
93 to avoid potential conflicts. All variables now start with
94 PKGMK_. The old names (SOURCE_DIR, PACKAGE_DIR and WORK_DIR)
95 still work but this backwards compatibility will be removed
96 in the future.
97
985.5 - Released 2003-05-03
99 - pkgmk: Added support for alternative source, package and work
100 directories. Variables SOURCE_DIR, PACKAGE_DIR and WORK_DIR
101 can be set in /etc/pkgmk.conf.
102 Thanks to Markus Ackermann <maol@symlink.ch>.
103 - Minor changes to some info/error messages.
104
1055.4 - Released 2003-03-09
106 - pkgmk: Added option -c/--clean, which removes the package
107 and the downloaded source files.
108 - Upgraded bundled libtar from 1.2.10 to 1.2.11. This
109 version of libtar fixes a spurious "permission denied"
110 error, which sometimes occurred when running "pkgadd -u".
111
1125.3 - Released 2003-02-05
113 - pkgadd: the combination of -f and -u now respects the
114 upgrade configuration in /etc/pkgadd.conf. This is
115 needed to better support upgrades where ownership of
116 files has been moved from one package to another.
117 - pkgadd/pkgrm/pkginfo: improved/reworked database locking
118 and error handling.
119 - pkgmk: added -o to unzip to make it behave more like tar
120 and avoid user intaraction when overwriting files.
