It would seem that the Easter Bunny has not entirely forgotten fellow
Linux users with Blackberries, for another version of Barry is upon us!
(He's a Blackberry user as well, you see.)
This release brings new features and bugfixes in the library and the
opensync plugin.
Brian Edginton has added support for the Time Zone database on newer
Blackberries. A naming collision bug has been fixed in the opensync
plugin. The file format that btool uses to save parsed data has been
changed slightly, and a new tool (bs11nread) is available to read
such data without writing it back to the device. Build system fixes
for 64 bit systems are also included.
Binary packages for the following distros are available:
Fedora 6 and 7
OpenSuSE 10.2
Debian stable
Ubuntu 7.10
Source packages are available in the following formats:
Source RPM
Debian (orig.tar / diff.gz / dsc)
Tarball (tar.bz2)
Note that the barry-0.12.tar.bz2 and barry_0.12.orig.tar.gz are identical
except for the debian/ directory, which is a diff.gz patch for orig.tar.gz.
Those who have been using tar.bz2 won't see any changes.
You can read the latest documentation online at
http://www.netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry/
If your bug hasn't been fixed or your favourite feature hasn't been
added this round, don't worry. The next release is already pending,
I just want to get some more testing in CVS before it goes out the door.
Please be sure to remind me of any problems you're experiencing by sending
a report to the mailing list! Thanks!

Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2008/03/21
- changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
to avoid the CVS directories
- added support for building Debian source packages with proper
diff.gz and dsc files
- fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
- added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
scripts
2008/03/13
- renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
real opensync libraries
2008/03/07
- updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
building RPM's from CVS
- fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
on ./configure command line
2008/03/06
- changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
so that the database name is stored as the first line
of the file
- added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
written by btool
- minor adjustments to r_message.h and r_timezone.h
- updated s11n-boost.h header to match record classes
2008/03/01
- applied Time Zone parsing patches from Brian Edginton
- added Time Zones to list of supported parsers in btool.cc
2008/02/29
- changed configure.ac to use bzip2 for "make dist".. thanks to
Paul Dugas for the tip
2008/02/28
- committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
- applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
tar.bz2/tar.gz change
- updated AUTHORS file
2008/02/22
- fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
- updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
- ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
--libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
