Changes:
---------
This is primarily an overdue bug-fixing release designed to get
the number of outstanding bug reports down to a reasonable
number. A brief summary of the major changes follows:
0.3.13
=======
Released on: 5 December 2003.
- Runtime fixes:
- Use a per-user directory for storing the extracted contents
files. This avoids problems when multiple users share /tmp
and use scrollkeeper.
- Do XInclude processing on documents before extracting
information.
- By default, do not use the network to retrieve required DTDs.
- Can be changed using the '-n' parameter to
scrollkeeper-install and friends.
- Do not segfault if an OMF file is invalid.
- Build fixes:
- Install various package documentation files.
- Tidy up the build process a little bit and fix some
portability bugs.
- Update included gettext code.
- Build fixes for specific platforms (Solaris and *BSD systems).
- Detect installed version of the DocBook DTD at build time.
- Allow the location of system XML catalog to be specified.
- see the --with-xml-catalog flag.
- Install locale-specific program files correctly (i.e.
portably).
- Allow scrollkeeper data directory to be customised
- see the --with-partial-db-dir flag.
- Upgrade supplied gettext and automake versions.
- Miscellaneous:
- Correctly register translated versions of documents by
considering their category, rather than their titles.
- Don't leak file descriptors when updating the database. This
fixes resource starvation problems on some systems.
- Fix some memory leaks.
- Should now work with IPv6-enabled systems.
- When using a non-default prefix, the scrollkeeper log files
are updated correctly.
- Many Sourceforge bug tracker bugs fixed and all outstanding
patches in the patch tracker evaluated and applied if
appropriate.
