Log message:
* If PLIST_SRC is explicitly set to an empty value in a package Makefile,
then automatically generate a PLIST that says "${PKGNAME} has no files".
* If PLIST_SRC and GENERATE_PLIST are not set in a package Makefile,
and no PLIST files exist, then fail during the package build with
PKG_FAIL_REASON.
* Remove "intentionally empty" PLISTs again.
Now, the easy way to say that a package installs no files is to just
add the following to the package Makefile:
PLIST_SRC= # empty

Log message:
Re-add "intentionally empty" PLISTs for meta-packages and other packages
that directly manipulate empty PLISTs.
Modify plist/plist.mk so that if the PLIST files are missing and no
GENERATE_PLIST is defined, then the package fails to build.

Log message:
Remove empty PLISTs from pkgsrc since revision 1.33 of plist/plist.mk
can handle packages having no PLIST files.

Release notes for the gEDA/gaf 20070526 snapshot
Changes
_________________________________________________________________
libgeda/gschem
* libgeda's shared library version is now 29:0:0.
* Added "recently used files" File menu option. Now you can open up
files you used recently (and if you have a gafrc your components
should be found too) and open those files up in a new gschem
window. (Ivan Stankovic)
* Merge of the noscreen branch (many changes). This branch removed
all cached screen coordinates. Now all calculations are done in
world coordinates and should yield some drawing improvements. End
users should not notice any difference (other than the slight
speed up). (Peter Clifton)
* Many improvements to the "Write image..." dialog box in gschem.
gschem can now export any image that gtk+ (gdk-pixbuf
specifically) can write (png, jpg, ico, bmp, etc...). Libgd is no
longer an optional dependency and cannot be used with
libgeda/gschem. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
* Improved the auto placing mechanism. One improvement (amongst
others) is in the cases of: if the attribute overlap with pins
(including pinnumbers), or the pin connection direction where a
net is supposed to be drawn, then the attributes are moved
automatically. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
* A few improvements to the component place selector including
adding ok button to hide the component insert dialog box).
(Various)
* Added items (links to the wiki and FAQ) to the gschem help menu.
(Peter Brett)
* Fixed a nasty bug that was causing random crashes with keymaps
that did not have a valid keyval/keysym. (Peter Clifton)
* Fixed the drawing of dotted arcs/circles when the dot spacing is
too small to render. (Peter Clifton)
* Fixed component selector filter to be case insensitive. (Carlos
Nieves Onega)
* Added PageUp and PageDown hotkeys to change pages in gschem.
(Peter Brett)
* Fixed the ordering of buttons in all gtk dialog boxes to be
correct (based on what gtk+/gnome/desktop conventions). (Carlos
Nieves Onega)
* Added %%Orientation to DSC block in postscript output. (Mike
Jarabek)
* Fixed color printing of select objects (should not output the
selected color). (Peter Clifton)
* Added hotkeys to decrease and increase the snap grid spacing.
(Carlos Nieves Onega and Peter Brett)
* Improved keymap filling routines (Werner Hoch and Patrick Bernaud)
* Fixed a couple of small memory leaks. (Ales Hvezda)
* The usual slew of bug fixes by many individuals.
* A bunch of code cleanup/fixes by various individuals.
* Various language translations updated by various individuals.
gnetlist
* New gnetlist backends written: Calay and Osmond. (John Doty)
* Moved the loading of scheme files using the "-l" command line
before the schematics are loaded (this allows the scheme code to
modify the various search paths).
* Various improvements to the spice-sdb backend including the
treatment of slotted parts (so that pins are emitted in pinseq
order). (Stuart Brorson)
* Added and improved a bunch of regression tests. The vast majority
of these tests are now run during make distcheck. (Stuart Brorson
and Ales Hvezda)
* A few bugs fixed. (Various)
gattrib
* Added doxygen generated docs. (Stuart Brorson)
* A bunch of bugs fixed. (Stuart Brorson and Peter Clifton)
docs
* Removed the html version of the gsch2pcb tutorial. Instead, the
gsch2pcb tutorial is now part of the wiki thanks to several
individuals (Patrick Doyle and Bogdan Petrisor).
* Updated the wiki snapshot to the latest web wiki version. (Ales
Hvezda)
* Misc improvements to various wiki scripts. (Ales Hvezda)
symbols
* Added greek mu character. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
* Added upper case greek omega character. (Jens Persson)
gsymcheck
* No significant changes.
utils
* Added refdes_renum test suite. (Dan McMahill and Stuart Brorson)
* Incorporated --gentle into refdes_renum which doesn't overwrite
refdes'es already numbered. (Stuart Brorson)
* Moved gschemdoc to the gschem package. Bunch of improvements to
the gschemdoc script related to finding local/remote
documentation. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
examples
* Fixed automake infrastructure to install 2N3904 model for the
TwoStageAmp example. (Stuart Brorson)

Changes
_________________________________________________________________
libgeda/gschem
libgeda and gschem no longer use libgdgeda (which was a gEDA specific
hack to the libgd library). gEDA/gaf now wants to use the original
GD library. (Wojciech Kazubski and Carlos Nieves Onega with
cleanup by others)
*
* gEDA/gaf now compiles out of the box on cygwin. (Cesar Strauss)
* Fixed bug #1553544: "New pages inadvertently created when adding
nets in gschem" (Peter Clifton)
* New component selection dialog box for gschem. This one is so much
better than the original one. Please test it out and submit
comments to the mailing lists. (Patrick Bernaud)
* The preview window is inside the file selectors again. The preview
window has been refactored and improved. (Patrick Bernaud)
* gschem now places a title block (or any component the user wants)
when a new page/window is created. This solves the common complain
that the initial zoom is way to far out. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
* Improvements to the new print dialog box: Make print settings
sticky for session. (Peter Brett)
* Fixed bug #1527465: Do a zoom extents for all pages when the main
window is maximized. (Carlos Nieves Onega and others)
* Fixed bug #1565433: Added the border in the gdk-pixbuf's image
output. (Carlos Nieves Onega)
* New dialog for user confirmation before closing a page or a
window. This is also a great improvement over the previous exit
confirm dialog box. (Patrick Bernaud)
* Various language translations updated.
* libgeda's shared library version is now 27:0:0.
* Many more bug fixes and code cleanups. (various people)
gnetlist
* Fixed PCB cursor related issues (Peter Clifton and Stuart
Brorson).
* Minor cleanup of gnet-PCB backend. (Thien-Thi Nguyen)
gattrib
* Made gattrib throw up GUI window warning user of no components or
attributes. (Stuart Brorson)
* File browsers in gattrib are now the same ones that gschem uses.
(Patrick Bernaud)
* The usual bug fixes and code cleanup. (various)
docs
* Updated the wiki snapshot to the latest web wiki version.
symbols
* linear/lm311-1.sym: Removed the GND false connection of the
symbol. (Ramakrishnan Muthukrishnan, John Luciani, and Carlos
Nieves Onega).
* Lots of off grid symbols cleaned up. (Werner Hoch)
gsymcheck
* Adds newline that is missing from the "Found Pintype=..." message
in s_check_pintype() in s_check.c. (Jeff Mallatt and Carlos Nieves
Onega)
* gsymcheck now counts the number of distinct pinnumbers specified
in all slotdef= attributes. Uses that number, plus the number of
net= pins, to compare with the "footprint size" when checking for
that warning. (Jeff Mallatt and Carlos Nieves Onega).
utils
* Applied patches for the cygwin port. Lots of various improvements
to make gschemdoc more Windows friendly (at least under cygwin).
(Cesar Strauss, Peter Brett, and Carlos Nieves Onega)
