Subject: GNU Libtool 1.5.10 released. (fwd)
========== Forwarded message ==========
The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of GNU Libtool
1.5.10.
GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries behind a
consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU libltdl,
which hides the comlexity of loading dynamic runtime libraries
(modules) behind a consistent, portable interface.
This release has a number of bugfixes.
New in 1.5.10: September 19th 2004
* GNU/linux ia64 fixes.
* Works on platforms with no c++ compiler.
libtool-1.5.10 is available now from ftp.gnu.org, along with
diffs and xdeltas against libtool-1.5.8
that are also available from ftp.gnu.org. Please
use a mirror to reduce stress on the main gnu machine:

Here are the compressed sources:

5b5c55367fe178ac8879c8f4ddae5a37dde64197 libtool-1.5.8-1.5.10.xdelta
This release was bootstrapped with automake 1.9.1 and autoconf 2.59,
but is useable with automake 1.4 & later and autoconf 2.5 & later
in your own projects.
Alternatively, you can fetch the unbootstrapped sourcecode from
anonymous cvs by using the following commands (just hit return when
you are prompted for the password):
$ export CVS_RSH=ssh
$ cvs -z3 -d :ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/libtool \
co -r release-1-5-10 libtool
You will then need to have the latest release versions of Automake
(1.9.1) and Autoconf (2.59) installed to
bootstrap the checked out sources yourself.
Please report bugs to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.

Subject: ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.1.5 Development Release (fwd)
========== Forwarded message ==========
Hi,
a new development snapshot of GIMP 2.1 is now available from
ftp.gimp.org and it's mirrors:
http://gimp.org/downloads/#mirrors
This is an unstable development release. It certainly has bugs and
there are a number of unfinished hacks. We are nevertheless interested
in your feedback and would like you to file bug reports for crashes
and non-obvious problems.
Please note that you cannot install gimp-2.1 side-by-side with
gimp-2.0 into the same prefix. A number of files will clash, so please
use a separate prefix to install this development version! For
details, please read the file INSTALL.
Here's an overview of the changes since 2.1.4 was released:
- Ask the user to save the image when closing the last display.
- Restored compatibility of the wire protocol that was accidentally
broken in 2.1.4.
- Added layer and mask actions to allow to create keybindings for them.
- Preview widget improvements:
* let the preview expand with the plug-in dialog
* added a navigation popup similar to the one in the image window
* respect the selection and show how it will affect the filter
* added API to draw to a GimpDrawablePreview from a GimpPixelRgn
- Added preview to more plug-ins: Cartoon, Apply Canvas, Photocopy,
Motion Blur,
- Ported the Bumpmap plug-in preview to GimpDrawablePreview.
- Removed -u linker hacks from all Makefiles.

Subject: Automake 1.9.2 is out
>From adl@src.lip6.fr Mon Sep 20 22:07:20 2004
We're pleased to announce the release of Automake 1.9.2.
Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's
suitable for use with Autoconf, compliant with the GNU Makefile
standards, and portable to various make implementations.
This is a small bug-fix release (the list of bug fixed is appended),
and this is also an anniversary release. Automake was started on
1994-09-19 so it has 10 years today. To celebrate this the manual
has been augmented with a "History" chapter that tries to go through
these 10 years.
You can find the new release here:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.gz.sig
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.bz2
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.bz2.sig
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.gz
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.gz.sig
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.bz2
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/automake/automake-1.9.2.tar.bz2.sig
Soon it will also appear on the sources and GNU mirrors listed here:
http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html
http://sources.redhat.com/mirrors.html
Finally, here are the MD5 checksums:
b5799f983d0a062ec59810f6b289cd27 automake-1.9.2.tar.bz2
6f874b649fc3bbe8c54e7592f6fb2d10 automake-1.9.2.tar.gz
Please report bugs to <bug-automake@gnu.org>.
Bugs fixed in 1.9.2:
* Sort rm commands output for mostlyclean-generic, clean-generic,
distclean-generic and maintainer-clean-generic, so that the produced
Makefile is not sensible to the way Perl sorts its hashes.
* Support `+' in the name of directories given to `include'.
* Preserve spaces in the arguments of `compile'.
* `missing' will no longer try to emulate a tool that is run
with `--version' or `--help' as argument.
* Noteworthy manual update:
- There is a new chapter about the history of Automake.
