2.8.9 Development & patches:
http://lynx.isc.org/current/index.html
2014-12-21 (2.8.9dev.2)
* correct an inconsistent check for reload using isLYNXCGI() in the
options-screen -TD
* add script after using msginit to create en.po, to work around renaming in
Cygwin environment -TD
* improve overlay of field contents in form for "-dump" option; the change
in 2.8.8dev.3 did not take into account UTF-8 values (Debian #770011) -TD
* correct a bug in the map_string_to_keysym() function introduced in
2.8.8dev.17: as used via the remap() function, this returns the curses
code for a special key rather than Lynx's internal code (Debian #769601) -TD
* add checks when translating from UTF-8 to Unicode, to ensure that only the
shortest encoding is accepted. Other/longer encodings are mapped to the UCS
replacement character as in xterm (Debian #763268) -TD
* modify LYExpandHostForURL() to call HTGetAddrInfo(), allowing DNS lookups
for IPv6 to be interrupted, e.g., by typing ^G. This was a path overlooked
in 2.8.8dev.13 (reports by Chad Kline, etc.) -TD
* drop libgnutls-extra when using --with-gnutls-compat option -TD
* drop libgcrypt dependency when building with gnutls, using gnutls_rnd()
rather than gcry_randomize() (adapted from patch by Andreas Metzler,
Debian #753699) -TD
* fix a reference-after-free in scan_cookie_sublist(), probably fixing RedHat
#1120925 (patch by Mike Gorse).
* update eo.po, id.po from
http://translationproject.org/latest/lynx
* improve workaround for too-long pathnames in LYPrint.c SetupFilename() -TD
* fix a few inconsistencies between #if / #ifdef, including one for sleep()
which broke cross-compiles for MinGW -TD
* updated/improved configure script macros (TD):
+ CF_ACVERSION_CHECK: work around another gratuitous incompatibility
introduced in 2.69 (reported by Ross Burton, openembedded.org)
+ CF_ADD_CFLAGS: workaround for ash-shell
+ CF_ADD_LIBS: workaround in CF_X_TOOLKIT uses pkgconfig, whose files
generally are using incomplete dependencies - in turn introducing lots of
duplication. filter out the duplicates.
+ CF_CHECK_CFLAGS: workaround for ash-shell
+ CF_CURSES_FUNCS: improve workaround for weak-linkage, seems to fix tests
with NetBSD 6.1
+ CF_INTEL_COMPILER: cleanup the -no-gcc option which was leftover from
testing - prcs does not build with this option.
+ CF_MAKEFLAGS: workaround for GNU make 4.0 incompatibility with previous
releases.
+ CF_SUBDIR_PATH: add /usr/pkg and /opt/local to help configuring with
pkgsrc and macports -TD
+ CF_XOPEN_SOURCE: Minix3.2 ifdef's the POSIX.1-2001 functions inside
_NETBSD_SOURCE, even though it was released 2012-02-29 - appease it. At
the same time, turn on the verbose flag to show that most platforms need
platform-specific define's to get POSIX (sic). Also, add case for UnixWare
(report/discussion with Mark Ryan).
+ CF_X_ATHENA: add --with-Xaw3dxft option
+ CF_X_TOOLKIT: add workaround for breakage in XQuartz upgrades
* add check to ensure that "submit" command from 2.8.8dev.10 is performed
in a form (report by Karen Lewellen) -TD
* update config.guess (2014-03-23), config.sub (2014-07-28)
