Hi All,  

 

My site has been a little quiet of late. I've still been working on some stuff in the background, but my life has been extremely busy with my day job recently, but now I am Christmas vacation I have an opportunity to not only complete some port updates, but also release some stuff that I've had sitting around for a while!  

 

In no particular order:  

Apache/2 v2.23 port updated - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=apache2

PHP updated to v5.4.10 - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=php-5-4

PHP v5.3.x updated to v5.3.20 - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=PHP-5-3

MySQL updated to v5.1.67 - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=mysql-5-1

- All useful to those maintaining a website under OS/2. PHP and MySQL are pretty much just updates to the latest versions, Apache2 has some important fixes to the exceptq support for child process, which will hopefully help debug some of the issues some users have been having with PHP and Apache2 under OS/2  

 

CUPS v1.4.8 build updated - http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups/wiki/CupsPort

Gutenprint updated to v5.2.9 - http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups/wiki/CupsPort

HPLIP printer driver for HP printers updated to v3.12.10a - http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups/wiki/CupsPort

- All relating to CUPS (Common Unix Printing System). Gutenprint and hplip are version bumps, CUPS has a bunch of fixes over the previously available public builds.  

 

dvdauthor updated to v0.7.1 - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=dvdauthor

 - version update  

 

cmake updated to v2.8.10.2 - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=cmake

 - version update  

 

I wanted to also take this opportunity to thank all users who have sent contributions towards my porting efforts, by either donating via PayPal via the link at http://os2ports.smedley.id.au, or via the Mensys online store at http://www.mensys.net/os2ports

 

I'd also like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  

 

Cheers,  

 

Paul Smedley
