CDE 2.3.0 has been released. The src tarball is percolating out to
the SF mirrors as we speak.
So, long overdue, but I think this is a great release. It fixes
several long standing issues, stabilizes the code and makes it easier
on the user to build.
Next up will be to merge the hundreds of warning/coverity fixes in the
cde-next branch (+ register keyword removal, K&R removal, etc) back
into master. This will happen later today I expect.
A big Thank You to everyone contributing to this release!
Here's the HISTORY snippet:
8<---------------------------------------------
### 2.3.0 (stable) 07/06/2018
This is a very long overdue stable release. It incorporates all of
the fixes in the 2.2.4a development release plus:
- tooltalk/ttsession:
- on newer Linux/TIRPC systems, make sure listen() is called on a
server socket. This fixes an infinite loop problem seen with with
newer glibc and TIRPC implementations (SUSE Tumbleweed, ArchLinux)
- default to localhost when hostname IP resolution fails (all
platforms). There is no longer any need to add your unresolvable
hostname to the localhosts line in your /etc/hosts file.
- improved build support on Solaris/OpenIndiana systems (gcc and
SunStudio).
- BSD improvments:
- no need to create X11/Motif symlinks prior to compiling CDE.
- Fix native clang builds
- Fix some GCC builds
- remove ancient XmeXpm* defines
Here is the git shortlog since the 2.2.4a development release:

CDE-ICONS: create compatibility symlinks as relative rather than
absolute

## 2.2.4a (development) 06/08/2018
This is a long overdue development release.
This release corrects several known issues with newer BSD based
operating systems, enables TIRPC by default for all Linux systems, and
corrects several hundred bugs and warnings (compiler and coverity).
Using TIRPC on Linux means that you should no longer need to configure
rpcbind to run in insecure (-i) mode.
For Linux, only the C/en_US locales are built by default now. The
available extra locales are:
fr_FR.ISO8859-1, de_DE.ISO8859-1, es_ES.ISO8859-1, and it_IT.ISO8859-1
To build for these locales, you must ensure the locale support is
present on your OS (see the wiki), and then you can:
A) Edit config/cf/site.def and add the desired locales to
DtLocalesToBuild in the LinuxArchitecture section, or
B) call make World with the following option:
make World IMAKE_DEFINES='-DDtLocalesToBuild="fr_FR.ISO8859-1"'
to build the French Locale, for example.
For the BSD's, All of the current ones (OpenBSD 6.x and FreeBSD 11.x)
should compile now. Since we no longer use XPrint, the BSD's
should not need to compile their own modified Motif libraries any
more. Just install a Motif development package, and go.
