[leafnode-list] [Leafnode-announce] Leafnode 1.9.38.rel released (STABLE)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
----------------------------------------
leafnode 1.9.38.rel has been released.
----------------------------------------
Leafnode 1.9.38 has been released and replaces the withdrawn 1.9.37
version of leafnode. Leafnode 1.9.37 tried to fix the replacement
snprintf that is used on systems with inadequate native snprintf() that
had been broken for a long time, but the fixes in 1.9.37 were not
complete; leafnode 1.9.37 was reported broken among other systems from
FreeBSD 4.8. Please apologize the inconvenience.
Leafnode 1.9.38 also improves NewsCache compatibility and has tighter
checks to make sure that the prerequisites are there when building the
RPM binary package.
Note that you can subscribe to a moderated (non-spam) leafnode-announce
mailing list or you can watch file releases at sourceforge below, if you
want to be notified when new leafnode releases become available.

* 1.9.38, 2003-04-23
### BUGFIX
o The replacement snprintf trampled hash marks over digits in the output when
the output length matched the minimum field width or exceeded it, in
violation of Single Unix Specification. Fixed now. (Corresponding
conformance testing code has been added to "make check".)
### CHANGES
o The RPM spec file checks if pcre.h is in /usr/include/pcre or /usr/include.
This hopefully addresses RedHat 9 RPM build failures. (The leafnode RPM
should rely on the pcre RPM rather than including its own copy of PCRE
files, to avoid conflicts.) This is untested because the snprintf bugfix
above is critical and does not allow for further delay for testing.
o The NewsCache compatibility code was changed to allow the DATE command
for NewsCache 0.99.22* and 0.99.2? as well as 1.1.12 and newer.
