ANNOUNCE: gcalctool - v4.3.29

[Rich Burridge <Rich Burridge Sun COM>]

(Well I get to join the elite group of GNOME developers who have generated
two releases of their project on the same day).


Application
===========

gcalctool


Description
===========

gcalctool is the default GNOME desktop calculator.

It has Basic, Financial and Scientific modes. Internally it uses multiple
precision arithmetic to produce results to a high degree of accuracy.

This re-release is for the GNOME 2.5.1 call for tarballs.


Changes since the last version (4.3.28).
========================================

* Fixed bug 128603 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128603)
  The changes for enhancement request #126626 which added thousands
  separator support caused a crash at startup time on a Debian system.
  The initial constant strings are being put in read-only memory either
  by gcc (or because of the way that x86 arch is designed). This was
  not a problem when tested with the Sun compilers on a Solaris SPARC
  machine. The remove_tsep() routine is display.c has been rewritten
  to correctly handle this.
