Changelog for readline-doc-8.2.13-lp155.8.1.noarch.rpm :

* Mon Aug 19 2024 Dr. Werner Fink - Add upstream patches
* readline82-011 Some systems (e.g., macOS) send signals early on in interactive initialization, so readline should retry a failed open of the init file.
* readline82-012 If a user happens to bind do-lowercase-version to something that isn\'t a capital letter, so _rl_to_lower doesn\'t change anything and the result is still bound to do-lowercase-version, readline can recurse infinitely.
* readline82-013 When readline is accumulating bytes until it reads a complete multibyte character, reading a byte that makes the multibyte character invalid can result in discarding the bytes in the partial character.- Port patch readline-8.2.dif
* Tue Jan 16 2024 Dr. Werner Fink - Add upstream patch readline82-008
* Add missing prototypes for several function declarations- Add upstream patch readline82-009
* Fix issue where the directory name portion of the word to be completed (the part that is passed to opendir()) requires both tilde expansion and dequoting. Readline only performed tilde expansion in this case, so filename completion would fail.- Add upstream patch readline82-010
* Fix the case where text to be completed from the line buffer (quoted) is compared to the common prefix of the possible matches (unquoted) and the quoting makes the former appear to be longer than the latter. Readline assumes the match doesn\'t add any characters to the word and doesn\'t display multiple matches.- Port patches
* readline-5.2-conf.patch
* readline-6.2-metamode.patch
* readline-7.0-screen.patch
* readline-8.2.dif
* Tue Nov 21 2023 Dr. Werner Fink - Add upstream patch readline82-002
* It\'s possible for readline to try to zero out a line that\'s not null- terminated, leading to a memory fault.- Add upstream patch readline82-003- Add upstream patch readline82-004- Add upstream patch readline82-005
* If an application is using readline in callback mode, and a signal arrives after readline checks for it in rl_callback_read_char() but before it restores the application\'s signal handlers, it won\'t get processed until the next time the application calls rl_callback_read_char(). Readline needs to check for and resend any pending signals after restoring the application\'s signal handlers.- Add upstream patch readline82-006
* This is a variant of the same issue as the one fixed by patch 5. In this case, the signal arrives and is pending before readline calls rl_getc(). When this happens, the pending signal will be handled by the loop, but may alter or destroy some state that the callback uses. Readline needs to treat this case the same way it would if a signal interrupts pselect/select, so compound operations like searches and reading numeric arguments get cleaned up properly.- Add upstream patch readline82-007
* If readline is called with no prompt, it should display a newline if return is typed on an empty line. It should still suppress the final newline if return is typed on the last (empty) line of a multi-line command.
* Fri Oct 21 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Extend version linker map file to detect usage of new symbols (boo#1204336)
* Thu Oct 06 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Add patch readline82-001 and its signing readline82-001
* Starting a readline application with an invalid locale specification for LC_ALL/LANG/LC_CTYPE can cause it crash on the first call to readline.
* Tue Sep 27 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to final readline-8.2 r. When replacing a history entry, make sure the existing entry has a non-NULL timestamp before copying it; it may have been added by the application, not the history library.
* Tue Sep 13 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.2-rc4 m. Readline now checks for changes to locale settings (LC_ALL/LC_CTYPE/LANG) each time it is called, and modifies the appropriate locale-specific display and key binding variables when the locale changes.- Port patch readline-8.2.dif
* Wed Jul 27 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.2-rc2
* Wed Jun 22 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - use https:// for source urls- Update to readline-8.2-rc1
* Thu Apr 28 2022 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.2-beta a. There is now an HS_HISTORY_VERSION containing the version number of the history library for applications to use. b. History expansion better understands multiple history expansions that may contain strings that would ordinarily inhibit history expansion (e.g., `abc!$!$\'). c. There is a new framework for readline timeouts, including new public functions to set timeouts and query how much time is remaining before a timeout hits, and a hook function that can trigger when readline times out. There is a new state value to indicate a timeout. d. Automatically bind termcap key sequences for page-up and page-down to history-search-backward and history-search-forward, respectively. e. There is a new `fetch-history\' bindable command that retrieves the history entry corresponding to its numeric argument. Negative arguments count back from the end of the history. f. `vi-undo\' is now a bindable command. g. There is a new option: `enable-active-region\'. This separates control of the active region and bracketed-paste. It has the same default value as bracketed-paste, and enabling bracketed paste enables the active region. Users can now turn off the active region while leaving bracketed paste enabled. h. rl_completer_word_break_characters is now `const char
*\' like rl_basic_word_break_characters. i. Readline looks in $LS_COLORS for a custom filename extension (
*.readline-colored-completion-prefix) and uses that as the default color for the common prefix displayed when `colored-completion-prefix\' is set. j. Two new bindable string variables: active-region-start-color and active-region-end-color. The first sets the color used to display the active region; the second turns it off. If set, these are used in place of terminal standout mode. k. New readline state (RL_STATE_EOF) and application-visible variable (rl_eof_found) to allow applications to detect when readline reads EOF before calling the deprep-terminal hook. l. There is a new configuration option: --with-shared-termcap-library, which forces linking the shared readline library with the shared termcap (or curses/ncurses/termlib) library so applications don\'t have to do it.- Remove upstream patches and their signatures now obsolete

* There are some characters (e.g., cyrillic) that can\'t be displayed using certain single-byte encodings (e.g., cp1251) because the negative signed int is interpreted as EOF and not displayed.
* Wed May 05 2021 Dr. Werner Fink - Add official patch readline81-001 and its signature

* Fixed a bug that could cause point to be set beyond the end of the line buffer when aborting an incremental search.
* Tue Nov 10 2020 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.1-rc2 for testing
* Bracketed paste mode is enabled by default. There is a configure-time option (--enable-bracketed-paste-default) to set the default to on or off.
* Terminals that are named \"dumb\" or unknown do not enable bracketed paste by default.
* Ensure that disabling bracketed paste turns off highlighting the incremental search string when the search is successful.- Remove patch readline-8.1-bracketed_paste_off.patch and use the new build time configuration

* Fri Oct 16 2020 Dr. Werner Fink - Add patch readline-8.1-bracketed_paste_off.patch simply to disable the new bracketed paste feature
* Mon Oct 12 2020 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.1-rc1 for testing
* If a second consecutive completion attempt produces matches where the first did not, treat it as a new completion attempt and insert a match as appropriate.
* Bracketed paste mode works in more places: incremental search strings, vi overstrike mode, character search, and reading numeric arguments.
* Readline automatically switches to horizontal scrolling if the terminal has only one line.
* Unbinding all key sequences bound to a particular readline function now descends into keymaps for multi-key sequences.
* rl-clear-display: new bindable command that clears the screen and, if possible, the scrollback buffer (bound to emacs mode M-C-l by default).
* New active mark and face feature: when enabled, it will highlight the text inserted by a bracketed paste (the `active region\') and the text found by incremental and non-incremental history searches. This is tied to bracketed paste and can be disabled by turning off bracketed paste.
* Readline sets the mark in several additional commands.
* Bracketed paste mode is enabled by default (for now).
* Readline tries to take advantage of the more regular structure of UTF-8 characters to identify the beginning and end of characters when moving through the line buffer.
* The bindable operate-and-get-next command (and its default bindings) are now part of readline instead of a bash-specific addition.
* The signal cleanup code now blocks SIGINT while processing after a SIGINT.- Remove old upstream patches

* Thu Feb 13 2020 Dr. Werner Fink - Add official patch readline80-002 When using previous-history to go back beyond the beginning of the history list, it\'s possible to move to an incorrect partial line.- Add official patch readline80-003 Reading history entries with timestamps can result in history entries joined by linefeeds.- Add official patch readline80-004 If writing the history file fails, and renaming the backup history file fails, it\'s possible for readline\'s history code to return the wrong error to its caller.
* Wed Sep 04 2019 Ludwig Nussel - Avoid pulling in readline-doc into every installation. Instead of recommeding it, supplement the documentation pattern.
* Fri Aug 16 2019 Dr. Werner Fink - Rework patch readline-7.0-screen.patch again for bug boo#1143055

* Thu Sep 20 2018 Dr. Werner Fink - Update to readline-8.0-beta for testing a. Non-incremental vi-mode search (`N\', `n\') can search for a shell pattern, as Posix specifies (uses fnmatch(3) if available). b. There are new `next-screen-line\' and `previous-screen-line\' bindable commands, which move the cursor to the same column in the next, or previous, physical line, respectively. c. There are default key bindings for control-arrow-key key combinations. d. A negative argument (-N) to `quoted-insert\' means to insert the next N characters using quoted-insert. e. New public function: rl_check_signals(), which allows applications to respond to signals that readline catches while waiting for input using a custom read function. f. There is new support for conditionally testing the readline version in an inputrc file, with a full set of arithmetic comparison operators available. g. There is a simple variable comparison facility available for use within an inputrc file. Allowable operators are equality and inequality; string variables may be compared to a value; boolean variables must be compared to either `on\' or `off\'; variable names are separated from the operator by whitespace. h. The history expansion library now understands command and process substitution and extended globbing and allows them to appear anywhere in a word. i. The history library has a new variable that allows applications to set the initial quoting state, so quoting state can be inherited from a previous line.- Remove not used patch readline-6.2-endpw.dif- Port and modify patches

* With certain values for PS1, especially those that wrap onto three or more lines, readline will miscalculate the number of invisible characters, leading to crashes and core dumps.
* Tue Jan 30 2018 avindraAATTopensuse.org- Add patches 13-18 to bash-4.4-patches.tar.bz2
* 13: If a here-document contains a command substitution, the command substitution can get access to the file descriptor used to write the here-document.
* 14: Under some circumstances, functions that return via the `return\' builtin do not clean up memory they allocated to keep track of FIFOs.
* 15: Process substitution can leak internal quoting to the parser in the invoked subshell.
* 16: Bash can perform trap processing while reading command substitution output instead of waiting until the command completes.
* 17: There is a memory leak when `read -e\' is used to read a line using readline.
* 18: Under certain circumstances (e.g., reading from /dev/zero), read(2) will not return -1 even when interrupted by a signal. The read builtin needs to check for signals in this case.- partial cleanup with spec-cleaner
* Wed Jan 24 2018 wernerAATTsuse.de- Modify patch bash-4.3-pathtemp.patch to avoid crash at full file system (boo#1076909)
* Fri Dec 08 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Enable multibyte characters by default
* Mon Sep 25 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Modify patch bash-4.4.dif to let bashline.h install as well as this header file is included by general.h due to the same patch (boo#1060069)

* Fri Feb 17 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Remove bash-4.0-async-bnc523667.dif as this one is fixed (and was disabled and nobody had reported trouble)
* Mon Jan 30 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch readline70-002 which replace old one There is a race condition in add_history() that can be triggered by a fatal signal arriving between the time the history length is updated and the time the history list update is completed. A later attempt to reference an invalid history entry can cause a crash.- Add upstream patch readline70-003 Readline-7.0 uses pselect(2) to allow readline to handle signals that do not interrupt read(2), such as SIGALRM, before reading another character. The signal mask used in the pselect call did not take into account signals the calling application blocked before calling readline().
* Fri Jan 27 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch bash44-006 Out-of-range negative offsets to popd can cause the shell to crash attempting to free an invalid memory block.- Remove patch popd-offset-overflow.patch to use bash44-006- Add upstream patch bash44-007 When performing filename completion, bash dequotes the directory name being completed, which can result in match failures and potential unwanted expansion.- Duplicate bash44-007 as readline70-002 as it seems to be missed- Add upstream patch bash44-008 Under certain circumstances, bash will evaluate arithmetic expressions as part of reading an expression token even when evaluation is suppressed. This happens while evaluating a conditional expression and skipping over the failed branch of the expression.- Add upstream patch bash44-009 There is a race condition in add_history() that can be triggered by a fatal signal arriving between the time the history length is updated and the time the history list update is completed. A later attempt to reference an invalid history entry can cause a crash.- Add upstream patch bash44-010 Depending on compiler optimizations and behavior, the `read\' builtin may not save partial input when a timeout occurs.- Add upstream patch bash44-011 Subshells begun to run command and process substitutions may attempt to set the terminal\'s process group to an incorrect value if they receive a fatal signal. This depends on the behavior of the process that starts the shell.- Add upstream patch bash44-012 When -N is used, the input is not supposed to be split using $IFS, but leading and trailing IFS whitespace was still removed.
* Thu Jan 19 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Remove -L option on screen call dues API change, now we depend on environment variables only.
* Fri Dec 09 2016 mliskaAATTsuse.cz- Enable -fprofile-correction to cover misleading profile created due to terminating_signal which does not return.
* Mon Nov 28 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch popd-offset-overflow.patch to fix boo#1010845 CVE-2016-9401: bash: popd controlled free (Segmentation fault) Remark: this is a simple Segmentation fault, no security risk
* Thu Nov 17 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch bash44-001 Bash-4.4 changed the way the history list is initially allocated to reduce the number of reallocations and copies. Users who set HISTSIZE to a very large number to essentially unlimit the size of the history list will get memory allocation errors- Add upstream patch bash44-002 Bash-4.4 warns when discarding NUL bytes in command substitution output instead of silently dropping them. This patch changes the warnings from one per NUL byte encountered to one warning per command substitution.- Drop no-null-warning.patch as bash44-002 is official replacement- Add upstream patch bash44-003 Specially-crafted input, in this case an incomplete pathname expansion bracket expression containing an invalid collating symbol, can cause the shell to crash.- Add upstream patch bash44-004 There is a race condition that can result in bash referencing freed memory when freeing data associated with the last process substitution.- Add upstream patch bash44-005 Under certain circumstances, a simple command is optimized to eliminate a fork, resulting in an EXIT trap not being executed. (boo#1008459)- Add upstream patch readline70-001 Readline-7.0 changed the way the history list is initially allocated to reduce the number of reallocations and copies. Users who set the readline history-size variable to a very large number to essentially unlimit the size of the history list will get memory allocation errors
* Mon Oct 24 2016 schwabAATTsuse.de- no-null-warning.patch: Don\'t warn about null bytes in command substitution
* Tue Oct 04 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Avoid confusing library path
* Fri Sep 16 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Update bash 4.4 final
* Latest bug fixes since 4.4 rc2- Update readline 7.0 final
* Latest bug fixes since 7.0 rc2
* New application-callable function: rl_pending_signal(): returns the signal number of any signal readline has caught but not yet handled.
* New application-settable variable: rl_persistent_signal_handlers: if set to a non-zero value, readline will enable the readline-6.2 signal handler behavior in callback mode: handlers are installed when rl_callback_handler_install is called and removed removed when a complete line has been read.- Drop patch bash-4.3-async-bnc971410.dif as this one is part of 4.4- Drop patch bash-3.2-longjmp.dif as now long time be fixed- Drop patch bash-4.3-headers.dif as loadables now simply work- Drop readline-6.1-wrap.patch as this seems to be fixed- Disable patch bash-4.0-async-bnc523667.dif for now as it seems to be fixed in an other way
* Wed Sep 14 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Update bash 4.4 rc2 -- Bugfixes- Update readline 7.0 rc2 -- Bugfixes
* Mon Aug 01 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Make clear that the files /etc/profile as well as /etc/bash.bashrc may source other files as well even if the bash does not. Therefore modify patch bash-4.1-bash.bashrc.dif (bsc#959755)
* Thu Jul 14 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Update bash 4.4 beta 2
* Value conversions (arithmetic expansions, case modification, etc.) now happen when assigning elements of an array using compound assignment.
* There is a new option settable in config-top.h that makes multiple directory arguments to `cd\' a fatal error.
* Bash now uses mktemp() when creating internal temporary files; it produces a warning at build time on many Linux systems.- Update to readline library 7.0 beta 2 (not enabled as not standalone)
* The default binding for ^W in vi mode now uses word boundaries specified by Posix (vi-unix-word-rubout is bindable command name).
* rl_clear_visible_line: new application-callable function; clears all screen lines occupied by the current visible readline line.
* rl_tty_set_echoing: application-callable function that controls whether or not readline thinks it is echoing terminal output.
* Handle >| and strings of digits preceding and following redirection specifications as single tokens when tokenizing the line for history expansion.
* Fixed a bug with displaying completions when the prefix display length is greater than the length of the completions to be displayed.
* The :p history modifier now applies to the entire line, so any expansion specifying :p causes the line to be printed instead of expanded.
* Tue Mar 08 2016 wernerAATTsuse.de- Update bash 4.4 release candidate 1
* There is now a settable configuration #define that will cause the shell to exit if the shell is running setuid without the -p option and setuid to the real uid fails.
* Command and process substitutions now turn off the `-v\' option when executing, as other shells seem to do.
* The default value for the `checkhash\' shell option may now be set at compile time with a #define.
* The `mapfile\' builtin now has a -d option to use an arbitrary character as the record delimiter, and a -t option to strip the delimiter as supplied with -d.
* The maximum number of nested recursive calls to `eval\' is now settable in config-top.h; the default is no limit.
* The `-p\' option to declare and similar builtins will display attributes for named variables even when those variables have not been assigned values (which are technically unset).
* The maximum number of nested recursive calls to `source\' is now settable in config-top.h; the default is no limit.
* All builtin commands recognize the `--help\' option and print a usage summary.
* Bash does not allow function names containing `/\' and `=\' to be exported.
* The `ulimit\' builtin has new -k (kqueues) and -P (pseudoterminals) options.
* The shell now allows `time ; othercommand\' to time null commands.
* There is a new `--enable-function-import\' configuration option to allow importing shell functions from the environment; import is enabled by default.
* `printf -v var \"\"\' will now set `var\' to the empty string, as if `var=\"\"\' had been executed.
* GLOBIGNORE, the pattern substitution word expansion, and programmable completion match filtering now honor the value of the `nocasematch\' option.
* There is a new ${parameterAATTspec} family of operators to transform the value of `parameter\'.
* Bash no longer attempts to perform compound assignment if a variable on the rhs of an assignment statement argument to `declare\' has the form of a compound assignment (e.g., w=\'(word)\' ; declare foo=$w); compound assignments are accepted if the variable was already declared as an array, but with a warning.
* The declare builtin no longer displays array variables using the compound assignment syntax with quotes; that will generate warnings when re-used as input, and isn\'t necessary.
* Executing the rhs of && and || will no longer cause the shell to fork if it\'s not necessary.
* The `local\' builtin takes a new argument: `-\', which will cause it to save and the single-letter shell options and restore their previous values at function return.
* `complete\' and `compgen\' have a new `-o nosort\' option, which forces readline to not sort the completion matches.
* Bash now allows waiting for the most recent process substitution, since it appears as $!.
* The `unset\' builtin now unsets a scalar variable if it is subscripted with a `0\', analogous to the ${var[0]} expansion.
* `set -i\' is no longer valid, as in other shells.
* BASH_SUBSHELL is now updated for process substitution and group commands in pipelines, and is available with the same value when running any exit trap.
* Bash now checks $INSIDE_EMACS as well as $EMACS when deciding whether or not bash is being run in a GNU Emacs shell window.
* Bash now treats SIGINT received when running a non-builtin command in a loop the way it has traditionally treated running a builtin command: running any trap handler and breaking out of the loop.
* New variable: EXECIGNORE; a colon-separate list of patterns that will cause matching filenames to be ignored when searching for commands.
* Aliases whose value ends in a shell metacharacter now expand in a way to allow them to be `pasted\' to the next token, which can potentially change the meaning of a command (e.g., turning `&\' into `&&\').
* `make install\' now installs the example loadable builtins and a set of bash headers to use when developing new loadable builtins.
* `enable -f\' now attempts to call functions named BUILTIN_builtin_load when loading BUILTIN, and BUILTIN_builtin_unload when deleting it. This allows loadable builtins to run initialization and cleanup code.
* There is a new BASH_LOADABLES_PATH variable containing a list of directories where the `enable -f\' command looks for shared objects containing loadable builtins.
* The `complete_fullquote\' option to `shopt\' changes filename completion to quote all shell metacharacters in filenames and directory names.
* The `kill\' builtin now has a `-L\' option, equivalent to `-l\', for compatibility with Linux standalone versions of kill.
* BASH_COMPAT and FUNCNEST can be inherited and set from the shell\'s initial environment.
* inherit_errexit: a new `shopt\' option that, when set, causes command substitutions to inherit the -e option. By default, those subshells disable - e. It\'s enabled as part of turning on posix mode.
* New prompt string: PS0. Expanded and displayed by interactive shells after reading a complete command but before executing it.
* Interactive shells now behave as if SIGTSTP/SIGTTIN/SIGTTOU are set to SIG_DFL when the shell is started, so they are set to SIG_DFL in child processes.
* Posix-mode shells now allow double quotes to quote the history expansion character.
* OLDPWD can be inherited from the environment if it names a directory.
* Shells running as root no longer inherit PS4 from the environment, closing a security hole involving PS4 expansion performing command substitution.
* If executing an implicit `cd\' when the `autocd\' option is set, bash will now invoke a function named `cd\' if one exists before executing the `cd\' builtin.- Update to readline library 7.0 release candidate 1
* The history truncation code now uses the same error recovery mechansim as the history writing code, and restores the old version of the history file on error. The error recovery mechanism handles symlinked history files.
* There is a new bindable variable, `enable-bracketed-paste\', which enables support for a terminal\'s bracketed paste mode.
* The editing mode indicators can now be strings and are user-settable (new `emacs-mode-string\', `vi-cmd-mode-string\' and `vi-ins-mode-string\' variables). Mode strings can contain invisible character sequences. Setting mode strings to null strings restores the defaults.
* Prompt expansion adds the mode string to the last line of a multi-line prompt (one with embedded newlines).
* There is a new bindable variable, `colored-completion-prefix\', which, if set, causes the common prefix of a set of possible completions to be displayed in color.
* There is a new bindable command `vi-yank-pop\', a vi-mode version of emacs- mode yank-pop.
* The redisplay code underwent several efficiency improvements for multibyte locales.
* The insert-char function attempts to batch-insert all pending typeahead that maps to self-insert, as long as it is coming from the terminal.
* rl_callback_sigcleanup: a new application function that can clean up and unset any state set by readline\'s callback mode. Intended to be used after a signal.
* If an incremental search string has its last character removed with DEL, the resulting empty search string no longer matches the previous line.
* If readline reads a history file that begins with `#\' (or the value of the history comment character) and has enabled history timestamps, the history entries are assumed to be delimited by timestamps. This allows multi-line history entries.
* Readline now throws an error if it parses a key binding without a terminating `:\' or whitespace.- Remove patches which are upstream solved bash-3.2-longjmp.dif bash-4.3-headers.dif readline-6.1-wrap.patch- Rename patches bash-4.3.dif become bash-4.4.dif readline-6.3.dif become readline-7.0.dif- Refresh other patches as well
* Mon Oct 19 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Define the USE_MKTEMP and USE_MKSTEMP cpp macros as the implementation is already there.- Add patch bash-4.3-pathtemp.patch to allow root to clear the file systems. Otherwise the completion does not work if /tmp if full (ENOSPC for here documents)
* Fri Oct 16 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Remove --hash-size options as there is no any change in the final binary nor library anymore
* Mon Aug 31 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch bash43-039 Using the output of `declare -p\' when run in a function can result in variables that are invisible to `declare -p\'. This problem occurs when an assignment builtin such as `declare\' receives a quoted compound array assignment as one of its arguments.- Add upstream patch bash43-040 There is a memory leak that occurs when bash expands an array reference on the rhs of an assignment statement.- Add upstream patch bash43-041 There are several out-of-bounds read errors that occur when completing command lines where assignment statements appear before the command name. The first two appear only when programmable completion is enabled; the last one only happens when listing possible completions.- Add upstream patch bash43-042 There is a problem when parsing command substitutions containing `case\' commands within pipelines that causes the parser to not correctly identify the end of the command substitution.
* Wed Jul 01 2015 cooloAATTsuse.com- add bash-4.3-perl522.patch to fix texi2html for perl 5.22 (defined(AATTarray) has been deprecated since at least 2012)
* Thu May 28 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch bash43-034 If neither the -f nor -v options is supplied to unset, and a name argument is found to be a function and unset, subsequent name arguments are not treated as variables before attempting to unset a function by that name.- Add upstream patch bash43-035 A locale with a long name can trigger a buffer overflow and core dump. This applies on systems that do not have locale_charset in libc, are not using GNU libiconv, and are not using the libintl that ships with bash in lib/intl.- Add upstream patch bash43-036 When evaluating and setting integer variables, and the assignment fails to create a variable (for example, when performing an operation on an array variable with an invalid subscript), bash attempts to dereference a null pointer, causing a segmentation violation.- Add upstream patch bash43-037 If an associative array uses `AATT\' or `
*\' as a subscript, `declare -p\' produces output that cannot be reused as input.- Add upstream patch bash43-038 There are a number of instances where `time\' is not recognized as a reserved word when the shell grammar says it should be.
* Mon May 18 2015 meissnerAATTsuse.com- move info deletion to %preun sections
* Wed Mar 04 2015 jdelvareAATTsuse.de- bash-4.3-loadables.dif: One more warning fixed, in examples/loadables/logname.c.- bash-4.3-loadables.dif: Reverted one warning fix, which was introducing another warning and possibly a bug.
* Wed Mar 04 2015 jdelvareAATTsuse.de- bash-4.3-loadables.dif: Split changes to shell.h to a separate patch \"bash-4.3-include-unistd.dif\", as the loadables build just fine without these changes.- bash-4.3-loadables.dif: Drop all header file inclusion fixups, upstream fixed the problem differently 5 years ago.
* Wed Feb 18 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Do not restart all signal handlers for bash 4.3 as this breaks trap handler in subshells waotiug for a process
* Fri Jan 16 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Remove -DMUST_UNBLOCK_CHLD(=1) as this breaks waitchild(2) on linux
* Fri Jan 09 2015 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add upstream patch bash43-031 The new nameref assignment functionality introduced in bash-4.3 did not perform enough validation on the variable value and would create variables with invalid names.- Add upstream patch bash43-032 When bash is running in Posix mode, it allows signals -- including SIGCHLD -- to interrupt the `wait\' builtin, as Posix requires. However, the interrupt causes bash to not run a SIGCHLD trap for all exited children. This patch fixes the issue and restores the documented behavior in Posix mode.- Add upstream patch bash43-033 Bash does not clean up the terminal state in all cases where bash or readline modifies it and bash is subsequently terminated by a fatal signal. This happens when the `read\' builtin modifies the terminal settings, both when readline is active and when it is not. It occurs most often when a script installs a trap that exits on a signal without re-sending the signal to itself.
* Wed Dec 03 2014 jdelvareAATTsuse.de- Fix the sed command that fixes up the patch headers. It was printing a duplicate header line, which suprisingly did not confuse patch, but could in the future.- Fix all patches that had the duplicate header line issue.
* Tue Nov 04 2014 wernerAATTsuse.de- Use tail command to follow run-tests instead of a simpe cat command
* Fri Oct 24 2014 wernerAATTsuse.de- Really remove obsolete patches
* Fri Oct 24 2014 brianAATTaljex.com- Skip autoconf on OS 10.2 or older
* Wed Oct 22 2014 wernerAATTsuse.de- Avoid fdupes on SLES-10
* Wed Oct 22 2014 wernerAATTsuse.de- Bump bash version to 4.3
* Tue Oct 21 2014 brianAATTaljex.com- Allow building on targets from SL 10.1 to current since it\'s free
