Release Digest: GNU, January 26, 2004

GNU libmatheval

I’d like to make an announcement for GNU libmatheval library.
Library is accepted as GNU project in September, but recent
Savannah compromise slowed down development, so I’m sending
announcement only now:

GNU libmatheval version 1.0.1 is released. GNU libmatheval is
library for evaluating mathematical expressions. Library is written
in C and exposes C and Fortran 77 interfaces. GNU libmatheval
library makes it possible to evaluate mathematical expression given
as strings over any number of variables and to calculate expression
derivatives over any of given variables. Thus, library could be of
interest to anyone that is writing software to accept mathematical
expression as strings from users.

More information about GNU libmatheval are available at:

http://www.gnu.org/software/libmatheval/

Source code is available for download from:

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libmatheval/

Regards,
Alex

GNU Libtool 1.5.2

The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU
Libtool 1.5.2.

GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries
behind a consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU
libltdl, which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime
libraries (modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.

This release fixes bugs and annoyances present in the 1.5
release.=20

New in 1.5.2: 2004-01-25

• lt_dlrealloc is an official part of the libltdl API.
• –tag, –silent and –debug options are preserved and reused
  when libtool calls itself for relinking etc.
• `-pthread’ and similar options are honoured when linking shared
  libraries.
• -no-suppress in compile mode shows compiler output for both PIC
  and non-PIC object compilation.
• New link mode option `-precious-files-regex’ to prevent
  accidental removal of files you want to keep, such as test coverage
  data, from the temporary output directory.
• Directories specified in /etc/ld.so.conf are no longer
  hardcoded on Linux.
• Recognises the ‘R’ symbol type on Solaris so read-only symbols
  can be exported.
• Bug fixes.

libtool-1.5.2 is available now from ftp ftp.gnu.org, along with diffs and xdeltas
against libtool-1.5 that are also available from ftp.gnu.org/.=20 Please use a mirror to

libtool-1.5-1.5.2.xdelta

This release was bootstrapped with Autoconf 2.59 and Automake
1.8.2, but is useable with Autoconf 2.50 & later and Automake
1.4 & later in your own projects.

Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from
anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when
you are prompted for the password):

  $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/libtool login
  Password:
  $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/libtool 
  co -r release-1-5-2 libtool

You will then need to have the latest release versions of
Automake and Autoconf installed to bootstrap the checked out
sources yourself.

Please report bugs to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.
