- Update from 1.12.20 to 1.14.0
- Update of rootfile
- Changelog
1.14.x is a new stable branch, superseding 1.12.x.
Summary of major changes between 1.12.x and 1.14.0
Dependencies:
• dbus now requires at least a basic level of support for C99 variadic
macros, as implemented in gcc >= 3, all versions of Clang, and
MSVC >= 2005. In practice this requirement has existed since version
1.9.2, but it is now official.
• dbus now requires a C99-compatible va_copy() macro (or a __va_copy()
macro with the same behaviour), except when building for Windows using
MSVC and CMake.
• On Unix platforms, if getpwnam_r() and getgrnam_r() are implemented,
they must be POSIX-conformant. The non-POSIX signature seen in ancient
Solaris versions will no longer work.
• All Windows builds now require Windows Vista or later.
(Note that we do not recommend or support use of dbus on operating
systems outside their vendor's security support lifetime, such as Vista.)
• GLib >= 2.38 is required if full test coverage is enabled
(reduced from 2.40 in dbus 1.12.x.)
• Building using CMake now requires CMake 3.4.
• Building documentation using CMake now requires xsltproc, Docbook DTDs
(for example docbook-xml on Debian derivatives), and Docbook XSLT
stylesheets (for example docbook-xsl on Debian derivatives). Using
KDE's meinproc4 documentation processor is no longer supported.
Build-time configuration changes:
• Move CMake build system to top level, matching normal practice for
CMake projects
Deprecations:
**Looking through these I don't believe they will cause a problem as they are
deprecations and not yet removed.In the future if needed we might need to set
datadir to /etc to keep the location the same as with syscondir. This won't be
needed if we don't use the system.d directory for dbus policies.
• Third-party software should install default dbus policies for the system
bus into ${datadir}/dbus-1/system.d (this has been supported since dbus
1.10, released in August 2015). Installing default dbus policies in
${sysconfdir}/dbus-1/system.d is now considered to be deprecated. Policy
files in ${sysconfdir}/dbus-1/system.d continue to be read, but this
directory should only be used by system administrators wishing to
override the default policies.
The ${datadir} applicable to dbus is usually /usr/share and the
${sysconfdir} is usually /etc.
• A similar pattern applies to the session bus policies in session.d.
• The dbus-send(1) man page now documents --bus and --peer instead of
the old --address synonym for --peer, which has been deprecated since
the introduction of --bus and --peer in 1.7.6
• The dbus-daemon man page now has scarier warnings about
<allow_anonymous/> and non-local TCP, which are insecure and should
not be used, particularly for the standard system and session buses
• DBusServer (and hence the dbus-daemon) no longer accepts usernames
(login names) for the recommended EXTERNAL authentication mechanism,
only numeric user IDs or the empty string. See 1.13.0 release notes
for full details.
New features:
• On Linux 4.13 or later when built against a suitable glibc version,
GetConnectionCredentials() now includes UnixGroupIDs, the effective
group IDs of the initiator of the connection, taken from
SO_PEERGROUPS.
• On Linux 4.13 or later, <policy group="…"> now uses the SO_PEERGROUPS
credentials-passing socket option to get the effective group IDs
of the initiator of the connection. See 1.13.4 release notes for details.
• Add a --sender option to dbus-send, which requests a name and holds it
until the signal has been sent
• dbus-daemon <allow> and <deny> rules can now specify a
send_destination_prefix attribute, which is like a combination of
send_destination and the arg0namespace keyword in match rules.
See 1.13.12 release notes for more details
• The dbus-daemon now filters the messages that it relays, removing
header fields that it does not understand. Clients must not rely on
this behaviour unless they have confirmed that they are connected to
a suitable message bus implementation, for example by querying its
Features property.
• The dbus-daemon now emits a signal, ActivatableServicesChanged, when
the list of activatable services may have changed. Support for this
signal can be discovered by querying the Features property.
• It is now possible to disable traditional (non-systemd) service
activation at build-time (Autotools: --disable-traditional-activation,
CMake: -DENABLE_TRADITIONAL_ACTIVATION=OFF). See 1.13.10 release notes
for details.
• The API reference manual can be built as a Qt compiled help file if
qhelpgenerator(-qt5) is available. See 1.13.16 release notes for details.
Miscellaneous behaviour changes:
• When using the "user bus" (--enable-user-session), put the dbus-daemon
in the session slice
• Several environment variables set by systemd are no longer passed
on to activated services
• If the dbus-daemon is compiled for Linux with systemd support, it
now informs systemd that it is ready for use via the sd_notify()
mechanism
• Tarball releases no longer contain pre-2007 changelogs and are now
compressed with xz, making them around 35% smaller.

- This is an addon whose purpose is defined as :-
Netpbm is a toolkit for manipulation of graphic images, including conversion of images
between a variety of different formats. There are over 300 separate tools in the
package including converters for about 100 graphics formats. Examples of the sort of
image manipulation we're talking about are: Shrinking an image by 10%; Cutting the top
half off of an image; Making a mirror image; Creating a sequence of images that fade
from one image to another.
- None of the above seems to be a purpose related to a Firewall. Additionally it is
available in a huge number of distributions, including Linux, BSD,Windows,
MacOS X/Darwin, Solaris, AIX etc
- This package seems to be better used on a system in the lan protected by IPFire than
used on IPFire itself

- This is the legacy version of libnl - 1.1.4 and was released in 2013
- libnl-3 is the running stable version - 3.5.0
- Nothing in IPFire has libnl as a dependency. Large number of programs have libnl-3 as
a dependency
- libnl developer indicates that libnl-3 should be used if in any way possible and that
the legacy version is for situations that fail to work with libnl-3
- As everything in IPFire looks to already be using libnl-3 this patch is to remove the

Version 3.0.7 -
- Fixed bug #345, in which delimitedList changed expressions in place
using expr.streamline(). Reported by Kim Gräsman, thanks!
- Fixed bug #346, when a string of word characters was passed to WordStart
or WordEnd instead of just taking the default value. Originally posted
as a question by Parag on StackOverflow, good catch!
- Fixed bug #350, in which White expressions could fail to match due to
unintended whitespace-skipping. Reported by Fu Hanxi, thank you!
- Fixed bug #355, when a QuotedString is defined with characters in its
quoteChar string containing regex-significant characters such as ., *,
?, [, ], etc.
- Fixed bug in ParserElement.run_tests where comments would be displayed
using with_line_numbers.
- Added optional "min" and "max" arguments to `delimited_list`. PR
submitted by Marius, thanks!
- Added new API change note in `whats_new_in_pyparsing_3_0_0`, regarding
a bug fix in the `bool()` behavior of `ParseResults`.
Prior to pyparsing 3.0.x, the `ParseResults` class implementation of
`__bool__` would return `False` if the `ParseResults` item list was empty,
even if it contained named results. In 3.0.0 and later, `ParseResults` will
return `True` if either the item list is not empty *or* if the named
results dict is not empty.
# generate an empty ParseResults by parsing a blank string with
# a ZeroOrMore
result = Word(alphas)[...].parse_string("")
print(result.as_list())
print(result.as_dict())
print(bool(result))
Prints:
[]
{}
False
# add a results name to the result
result["name"] = "empty result"
print(result.as_list())
print(result.as_dict())
print(bool(result))
Prints:
[]
{'name': 'empty result'}
True
In previous versions, the second call to `bool()` would return `False`.
- Minor enhancement to Word generation of internal regular expression, to
emit consecutive characters in range, such as "ab", as "ab", not "a-b".
- Fixed character ranges for search terms using non-Western characters
in booleansearchparser, PR submitted by tc-yu, nice work!
- Additional type annotations on public methods.

- Update from 9.55.0 to 9.56.1
- Update of rootfile
- Changelog
Version 9.56.0 (2022-02-22)
Highlights in this release include:
New PDF Interpreter: This is an entirely new implementation written in C
(rather than PostScript, as before). For a full discussion of this change
and reasons for it see: Changes Coming to the PDF Interpreter.
In this (9.56.0) release, the new PDF interpreter is now ENABLED by default
in Ghostscript, but the old PDF interpreter can be used as a fallback by
specifying -dNEWPDF=false. We've provided this so users that encounter
issues with the new interpreter can keep working while we iron out those
issues, the option will not be available in the long term.
This also allows us to offer a new executable (gpdf, or gpdfwin??.exe on
Windows) which is purely for PDF input. For this release, those new binaries
are not included in the "install" make targets, nor in the Windows installers.
Calling Ghostscript via the GS API is now thread safe. The one limitation is
that the X11 devices for Unix-like systems (x11, x11alpha, x11cmyk, x11cmyk2,
x11cmyk4, x11cmyk8, x11gray2, x11gray4 and x11mono) cannot be made thread
safe, due to their interaction with the X11 server, those devices have been
modified to only allow one instance in an executable.
The PSD output device now writes ICC profiles to their output files, for
improved color fidelity.
Our efforts in code hygiene and maintainability continue.
The usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental
improvements.
Included below are incompatible changes from recent releases (the specific release
in question is listed in parentheses). We include these, for now, as we are aware
that not everyone upgrades with every release.
(9.55.0) Changes to the device API. This will affect developers and
maintainers of Ghostscript devices. Firstly, and most importantly,
the way device-specific "procs" are specified has been rewritten
to make it (we think!) clearer and less confusing. See The
Interface between Ghostscript and Device Drivers and The Great
Device Rework Of 2021 for more details.
(9.55.0) The command line options -sGraphicsICCProfile=___,
-dGraphicsIntent=#, -dGraphicsBlackPt=#, -dGraphicsKPreserve=# have
been changed to -sVectorICCProfile=___, -dVectorIntent=#,
-dVectorBlackPt=#, -dVectorKPreserve=#.
(9.53.0) As of 9.53.0, we have (re-)introduced the patch level to the
version number, this helps facilitate a revised policy on handling
security-related issues.
Note for GSView Users: The patch level addition breaks GSView 5 (it is
hardcoded to check for versions 704-999. It is possible, but not guaranteed
that a GSView update might be forthcoming to resolve this.
(9.52) -dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY: The transparency compositor (and related
features), whilst we are improving it, remains sensitive to being
driven correctly, and incorrect use can have unexpected/undefined
results. Hence, as part of improving security, we limited access to
these operators, originally using the -dSAFER feature. As we made
"SAFER" the default mode, that became unacceptable, hence the new
option -dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY which enables access to the operators.
(9.50) There are a couple of subtle incompatibilities between the old and
new SAFER implementations. Firstly, as mentioned in the 9.50 release
notes, SAFER now leaves standard PostScript functionality unchanged
(except for the file access limitations). Secondly, the interaction
with save/restore operations has changed. See SAFER.
