Log message:
Simply and speed up buildlink3.mk files and processing.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

Update to 0.7.0:

Overview of changes in libgpod 0.7.0
====================================

* support for iPod Nano 4th generation

This includes support for cover art.
Please note that this release DOES NOT support iPhones and iPod Touch
with firmware 2.x

* support for "sparse artwork" writing

This lets us write more compact artwork files to the iPod, which in turn makes
the UI more responsive (and saves disk space on the iPod).

* jump table support

These are the big letters that show up in the album/artist list when someone
quickly scrolls through them. Thanks a lot to Ian Stewart for implementing it.

* chapter data support

Chapter data allows large files (movies, audio books, podcasts) to be divided
into smaller sections.  Thanks to Michael Tiffany for this feature.

* improved timezone handling

This should now work up to 5G iPods, for newer iPods, libgpod will assume
timestamps are in UTC.

* translation updates

Thanks to all of our translators :)

* much more complete API doc

All of the public API is now documented with gtk-doc.

* simplification of the cover art handling API

The API for artwork for developers using libgpod should be more
straightforward, if things are missing, don't hesitate to get in touch
with us ;)

* extensive plist parser

In libgpod 0.6.0, libgpod got a very basic parser for the SysInfoExtended file
(which is a XML plist description). This parser was rewritten for this release
to parse the whole file. This parser depends on libxml2 but its compilation
will be disabled if libxml2 and its development headers can't be found.

* add mapping from iPod serial numbers to iPod models

The iPod serial number can be obtained programmatically, and its last 3 digits
are characteristic of an iPod (type, generation, color, capacity). libgpod
can now find out an iPod model using this serial number.

* portability improvements to windows and macosx

This is probably not perfect yet, but the goal is to improve it as much as
possible so don't hesitate to send bug reports if some things are still not
working. Thanks to the songbird project and Éric Lassauge.

* reworked handling of artwork formats

libgpod can now automatically use the artwork formats described in
SysInfoExtended even if the iPod model is unknown, this should make it possible
for libgpod to support artwork on newly released iPod models without the need
to upgrade.

* python bindings are more consistent with other python container objects

This enables testing whether a key exists in an object (e.g. "'title' in \ 
track")
as well as iterating over a Track or Photo object's keys, values, or items.

* bug fixes and code cleanup all over the place

Update to 0.6.0:

Overview of changes in libgpod 0.6.0
====================================

* support for iPod Classics and Video Nanos

The database from these models is protected by a checksum. When this checksum
doesn't match the content of the iPod database, the iPod won't show any
track (ie it will look empty). Support for writing this checksum has been
implemented in this release thanks to the awesome work of a few people in
#gtkpod. However, to calculate this checksum, a so called "firewire ID" is
needed which is different from iPod to iPod. Since reading it from the iPod
requires special permissions, the firewire ID must be written in a regular
file on the iPod so that libgpod can find it and use it to generate the
checksum.

libgpod installs a HAL callout to do that automatically when
everything is installed in an appropriate place. It can also be done manually,
see README.SysInfo for more information.

Cover art should be working except for non square covers, preliminary photo
support but this hasn't been widely tested yet.

* support for iPhone and iPod Touch

This requires manual user intervention: the devices must be jailbroken and
mounted through sshfs. The iPod Touch also needs a firewire ID which must be
manually set, see README.SysInfo

Cover art is implemented but not tested at all, ditto for photo support on
the iPod Touch

* additional tools to get the firewire id from new iPods including a HAL
  callout which will make the process totally automatic when it's properly
  installed. These tools need libsgutils to be installed.

* endianness fixes in the artwork writing code
* now depends on glib 2.8 or newer

Huge thanks to wtbw and Simon Schulz without whom that release wouldn't have
been possible. Thanks as well to the people on #gtkpod for the testing they
provided.
