RELEASE NOTES: 0.474 2005-11-05
Summary (0.463 -> 0.474):
-------------------------
A problem with Explicit file definitions in a PSF when
using the "-t d" was fixed. A long standing mis-use of
vsnprintf was fixed which fixed a segfault on a ppc64
GNU/Linux platform. There were documentation and example
file updates. swpackage was optimized and now 20% faster
for large packages.
Changes:
swbis-0.474
- swparse.y: silenced a warning.
swbis-0.473
- Doc fixes
- swpackage.cxx: removed long deprecated attributes from the
distribution object.
swbis-0.472

script of packages created with the --numeric option of
swpackage or the "-o 0 -g 0" options of swign.

bug (misuse of vsnprintf) but remained well hidden on
x86 platforms.
