Stamp the versions on the pages at install time, instead of dist + time. This change is important, because downstream packagers will + need to `make install` instead of just copying the pages. + The benefit of this is that downstream distributors are now able + to set their own distro-specific version strings. The most common + thing that I'd expect is setting a suffix such as '-1', which can + be done with `make install EXTRAVERSION=-1`. + Another benefit is that downstream patches that apply near the + TH line will have to be refreshed less often, since the TH line + will not necessarily change in every release. - Reorganize build system - - Clarify dependencies - - Clarify configurable variables - - Add 'distcheck' target - - Ignore known warnings - - Replace uses of man2html(1) by grohtml(1) + - Improve support for Darwin systems. + - Remove any generated files (fonts) from the repository, and + generate them at build time. + - Various improvements to the generation of the PDF book. + +- man + - Move manual pages to a new directory man/, so that they are now + under man/man*/. Symlinks have been added for convenience. + +- git + - Import pthread_*.3 link pages' git history from debian/glibc.git + +- CONTRIBUTING.d + - Add help for using git-config(1), git-send-email(1), + git-range-diff(1), and [neo]mutt(1). -Changes to individual pages +Changes to individual files --------------------------- -The manual pages (and other files in the repository) have been improved +The manual pages and other files in the repository have been improved beyond what this changelog covers.
