| A new CVS snapshot distribution tarball for PLplot is available at the usual
place:
    http://people.debian.org/~rafael/plplot.html
The tarball name is plplot-5.2.1.cvs.20031027.tar.gz.  The changes in
relation to the last CVS tarball (released one week ago) are quite minimal.
The tarball was generated in a Debian unstable system with the following
versions of the GNU autotools:
    Autoconf  2.57
    Automake  1.7.8
     Libtool  1.5.0a
You will find below the changelog of the recent changes in CVS (generated
with the command: cvs2cl -l "-d'2003-10-17<'").
Please, test and report.
Notice that this tarball will be used in the forthcoming release of the
Debian packages.  This means that I will abandon the Debian series 5.2.1-*
in favor of the 5.2.1.cvs.*-* series.  In concrete terms, this means that
the Debian packages in the testing distribution will be actually the
"release candidates" for the next version of PLplot (probably 5.2.2).  The
presence of the CVS snapshot version inDebian will help us in the testing
cycle of the next release of PLplot.

============== Changelog ==============
2003-10-27 08:48  rlaboiss
	* debian/rules: Fixed "--with-pthread" -> "--with-pthreads" in call
	  to configure.
2003-10-27 08:46  rlaboiss
	* scripts/make-cvs-tarball.sh: Made make-cvs-tarball script more
	  robust to premature exit.
	  Added a cleanup function that is called for the trapped signals
	  0, HUP, QUIT, INT, TERM, and PIPE.  This insures that the
	  temporary directory $CVSTMPDIR is removed at exit.  Also, a
	  caveat note is added at the comments on the top of the file.
2003-10-26 16:07  rlaboiss
	* bootstrap.sh: Call aclocal in libltdl directory.
	  This insures that the aclocal.m4 files in both the topdir and the
	  libltdl directory are generated with by same version of Automake
	  and no errors regarding incompatible calls of AM_AUTOMAKE_VERSION
	  will happen.
2003-10-26 05:37  airwin
	* examples/f77/x05f.fm4: AWI for Arjen Markus plus significant
	  changes of my own as well.  Update fifth standard fortran example
	  so it produces results consistent with results for other language
	  interfaces.  diff of postscript results showed no difference with
	  c result for example.
2003-10-26 05:23  airwin
	* examples/f77/x03f.fm4: AWI for Arjen Markus.	Minore update of
	  third standard fortran example so it avoids deprecated plcol API
	  and replaces by plcol0 instead.  More work required, however,
	  before it will produce results consistent with results for other
	  language interfaces.
2003-10-26 05:17  airwin
	* examples/f77/x02f.fm4: AWI for Arjen Markus.	Update second
	  standard fortran example so it produces results consistent with
	  results for other language interfaces.  diff of postscript
	  results showed no difference with c result for example.
2003-10-26 03:55  airwin
	* examples/f77/: Makefile.am, x17f.fm4, x18f.fm4, x19f.fm4: Initial
	  commit of contributed standard examples from Arjen Markus with
	  some changes by AWI to allow them to compile.  x17f and x19f
	  don't link (so must use, e.g, make -k check for now to compile
	  rest of examples) because of missing fortran API. x18f actually
	  links and gives almost the correct standard results for example
	  18, but "almost" means there is probably an API problem to deal
	  with there.
2003-10-26 02:49  airwin
	* examples/f77/: Makefile.am, fmacs.m4, x01f.fm4, x02f.fm4,
	  x03f.fm4, x04f.fm4, x05f.fm4, x06f.fm4, x07f.fm4, x08f.fm4,
	  x09f.fm4, x10f.fm4, x11f.fm4, x12f.fm4, x13f.fm4, x16f.fm4: Drop
	  single-precision support for examples for now.  I intend to
	  re-instate it later with a sed script.  The *.fm4 are now a
	  misnomer (probably the name should be changed to *.fdouble or
	  something, but I have to think about it) since they are no longer
	  processed by m4.  Instead, these files are filled by straight
	  double-precision fortran (with no embedded m4 commands) and
	  simply copied to *.f.
2003-10-24 20:31  jcard
	* configure.ac: Disable dynamic drivers if enable_shared != yes
	  If the user don't want (or the system is not capable of) to build
	  shared libraries, then disable dynamic drivers, as they are
	  dynamically loaded objects.
	  This must to be done after AM_PROG_LIBTOOL.  There is a test
	  if test "$enable_dyndrivers" = "yes" above that should, if
	  possible, be put after this test.
2003-10-23 11:48  rlaboiss
	* debian/: changelog, rules: Debian release 5.2.1-21
	  From the debian/changelog file:
	    * sysloc.in: Applied patch from upstream CVS that assigns an
	  unversioned
	      path to OCTAVE_OCT_DIR.
	    * debian/rules:
	      - Loosen the restriction on the Octave version dependency,
	  now that
		OCTAVE_OCT_DIR is unversioned.
	      - Configure with --with-pthreads, such that the xwin driver
	  refreshes
		the plot when the window is moved or re-exposed.
2003-10-23 09:17  rlaboiss
	* sysloc.in: Unversioned path for Octave oct dir
	  The OCTAVE_OCT_DIR variable is not versioned anymore (i.e. it
	  does not contain the Octave version 2.*.* in it).  This parallels
	  what is done for the OCT_M_DIR variable.  OCTAVE_OCT_DIR takes it
	  value from the octave_config_info structure, being either
	  localoctfiledir (for Octave version 2.1.*) or the first component
	  of localoctfilepath (version 2.0.*).
	  The advantage of this change is that the Octave bindings are not
	  tied to a specific version of Octave, and will continue to be
	  visible if the user upgrades Octave.	Remember though that there
	  is no guarantee of backward compatibility of the *.oct API within
	  the unstable series of Octave (2.1.*).
2003-10-21 12:22  rlaboiss
	* drivers/gnome.c: Use HAVE_PTHREAD instead of USE_THREADS
	  This means that pthreads support will be activated in the gnome
	  driver whenever the --with-pthreads option is given to configure.
2003-10-17 15:16  rlaboiss
	* debian/changelog: Debian release 5.2.1-20
2003-10-17 14:16  rlaboiss
	* configure.ac: Put AC_CHECK_LIB(ltdl, ...) outside the
	  with_ltdlsystem conditional
	  For some mysterious reason, when the AC_CHECK_LIB was put inside
	  the conditional 'if test "$with_ltdlsystem" = no', configure was
	  failing with the error message: conditional "AMDEP" was never
	  defined.  This should be fixed now.
	  Please, test this change.
