@@ -1,3 +1,39 @@ +pkg-config 0.29 +=== + +- Fixed a regression from 0.28 in system -L flag handling. If the pc + file has multiple system -L flags, every other flag will be left as + is. Thanks to Andrew Oakley for the fix. (#78077) +- Quoting of variables queried through --variable is removed so that the + output can be used verbatim in subsequent shell commands. Thanks to + Marek Kasik for the fix. (#67904) +- Fixed a regression from 0.28 in -L flag handling on Windows. A .libs + suffix was inadvertantly being added to the library path. +- Added a --validate option to check pc file syntax. This works just + like --exists, but package dependencies are disabled. (#7000) +- Added the PKG_PREREQ autoconf macro. Whereas PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG is + used to check the version of the pkg-config tool, this is used to + check the version of the pkg-config autoconf macros in use. +- Added the PKG_CHECK_MODULES_STATIC autoconf macro. This will + temporarily add --static to the pkg-config calls while invoking + PKG_CHECK_MODULES. (#19541) +- Many fixes to the testsuite for Windows. It should now pass for a + MinGW, Cygwin, and cross-compiled MinGW using Wine for test execution. + (#66939) +- More consistent handling of prefix redefinition. On Windows, the + prefix was always being redefined based on the pc file path. This + feature can now be enabled or disabled at runtime on all platforms + using the --define-prefix and --dont-define-prefix options. (#63602) +- Continue listing packages with --list-all even if there are errors in + pc files. (#26615) +- Various documentation improvements. (#62018, #62374, #66155) +- Fixed a bug when multiple -isystem arguments are used. (#72584) +- pkg-config is now built with largefile support to ensure that it works + correctly on filesystems with 64 bit inodes. Thanks to Peter Jones for + the fix. (#90078) +- Bugs fixed: 7000, 19541, 26615, 62018, 62374, 63602, 66155, 66939, + 67904, 70690, 72584, 78077, 80378, 80380, 89267, 90078, 90437, 92002. + pkg-config 0.28 === - Fixed a pair of long-standing and intertwined bugs involving unwanted |
