Hello, New versions of all the skarnet.org packages are available. This is mostly a bugfix release (there was an installation bug in some circumstances with shared libraries) but some packages, notably execline and s6, have new, useful features. The new versions are the following: skalibs-2.9.2.0 nsss-0.0.2.2 utmps-0.0.3.2 execline-2.6.0.0 s6-2.9.1.0 s6-rc-0.5.1.2 s6-linux-init-1.0.4.0 s6-dns-2.3.2.0 s6-networking-2.3.1.2 s6-portable-utils-2.2.2.2 s6-linux-utils-2.5.1.2 mdevd-0.1.1.2 bcnm-0.0.1.0 Here are details for the packages that have more than bugfixes: * skalibs-2.9.2.0 --------------- - New header: skalibs/bigkv.h. It's a set of functions allowing efficient lookups in a large set of strings (typically read from the command line or the environment). https://skarnet.org/software/skalibs/ git://git.skarnet.org/skalibs * execline-2.6.0.0 ---------------- - It's a major release because an API has been modified: dollarat. Beforehand, dollarat's -0 option would always prevail over any -d option. Now, dollarat has its conflicting -0 and -d options handled in the conventional way, with rightmost priority. - The runblock program now accepts a command line prefix, which is given as runblock's own command line. This allows blocks to serve as arguments to a new command, instead of having to be full command lines by themselves. - New binary: posix-umask. - The former "cd" program is now named "execline-cd" and the former "umask" program is named "execline-umask". When the=20 --enable-pedantic-posix option is not given at configure time, "cd" and "umask" are symbolic links created at installation time and pointing to execline-cd and execline-umask respectively. When the --enable-pedantic-posix option is given, the symbolic links point to posix-cd and posix-umask instead. - With posix-cd and posix-umask (and the changes to wait done in the previous version), execline is now fully POSIX-compliant when built with the --enable-pedantic-posix option. This will certainly, without the slightest hint of a doubt, change distributions' attitudes about it. https://skarnet.org/software/execline/ git://git.skarnet.org/execline * s6-2.9.1.0 ---------- - A new '?' directive has been added to s6-log. It behaves exactly like '!', except that it spawns the given processor with /bin/sh as an interpreter instead of execlineb. - execline support is now optional: it can be disabled by specifying --disable-execline at configure time. Some functionality is unavailable when execline support is disabled: * s6-log's '!' directive * s6-notifyoncheck's -c option * s6-ipcserver-access's support for 'exec' directives in a ruleset - A new -X option has been added to s6-svscan, to specify a descriptor that will be passed as stderr to a service spawned by this s6-svscan and named s6-svscan-log. This is used in the new s6-linux-init, to avoid needing to hardcode the /dev/console name for the catch-all logger's standard error. - On systems that define SIGPWR and SIGWINCH, s6-svscan -s now diverts those signals. This allows powerfail and kbrequest events to be handled when s6-svscan runs as process 1. https://skarnet.org/software/s6/ git://git.skarnet.org/s6 * s6-linux-init-1.0.4.0 --------------------- - New options have been added to s6-linux-init-maker: to support running s6-linux-init without a catch-all logger, and to support running it in a container. - s6-linux-init-maker now adds a SIGPWR handler to the default image: on receipt of a SIGPWR, the system's shutdown procedure is triggered. - s6-linux-init now handles kbrequest, which triggers a SIGWINCH in init when a special, configurable set of keys is pressed. By default, no SIGWINCH handler is declared in the image, and no set of keys is bound to kbrequest. https://skarnet.org/software/s6-linux-init/ git://git.skarnet.org/s6-linux-init * s6-dns-2.3.2.0 -------------- - New library: libdcache, implementing a clean cache structure to contain DNS data. It's still not used at the moment. https://skarnet.org/software/s6-dns/ git://git.skarnet.org/s6-dns * bcnm-0.0.1.0 ------------ - First numbered release, because the Ad=C3=A9lie Linux distribution, which uses libwpactrl, needs an official release instead of pulling from git. - libwpactrl is a set of C functions helping control a wpa_supplicant process. - bcnm-waitif is a binary that waits for network interface state events such as appearance/disappearance, up/down, running/not-running. It is useful to avoid race conditions during a boot sequence, for instance. https://skarnet.org/software/bcnm/ git://git.skarnet.org/bcnm Enjoy, Bug-reports welcome. -- Laurent |
