* Support OS 10.8.5.

Validation::_require_dep().
0.35.1 "BBQ" (2013-07-08)
* Bugfix: 10.5-EOL was still visible. Fix that.
0.35.0 "TLA" (2013-07-05)
* First release to support only Snow Leopard (10.6) and later.
* Support OS 10.8.4.
* Add detection for Java-1.7.0.
* Have fink display the help text if given an unknown verb. This lets "fink help"
and "fink --help" give the same output and reduces surprises. :-)
* Prevent package builds/installs if there is no upgrade path between the prior
Distribution and the current OS.
* We appear to need the fixes from both 0.34.7 and 0.34.8 for hanging tar, so
we'll have both.
* For MakeMaker builds: Override the default "g(cc|++)2-4.2" compiler option
given by the system's Perl on 10.6 in favor of our "g(cc|++)" wrapper, since
gcc-4.2 isn't present for clean Xcode 4.2 installs, and our wrapper is equivalent
(and contains arch information) for Xcode 3.2.x.
* Validation::_min_fink_version() API change to allow more generic dependencies.
Example: Depends: fink (>= 0.32) now automatically satisfies BuildDepends
fink (>= 0.32). Similarly, Depends: automatically satisfies RuntimeDepends.
/-------------
| fink 0.34.x
\-------------
0.34.9 "recessed" (2013-07-05)
* Last release to support Leopard (10.5.x).
* Have fink display the help text if given an unknown verb. This lets "fink help"
and "fink --help" give the same output and reduces surprises. :-)
* Prevent package builds/installs if there is no upgrade path between the prior
Distribution and the current OS.
* Validation::_min_fink_version() API change to allow more generic dependencies.
Example: Depends: fink (>= 0.32) now automatically satisfies BuildDepends
fink (>= 0.32). Similarly, Depends: automatically satisfies RuntimeDepends.
=== in common with 0.35.0 ===

* We appear to need the fixes from both 0.34.7 and 0.34.8 for hanging tar, so

given by the system's Perl on 10.6 in favor of our "g(cc|++)" wrapper, since
gcc-4.2 isn't present for clean Xcode 4.2 installs, and our wrapper is equivalent
(and contains arch information) for Xcode 3.2.x.
0.34.8 "duct tape" (2013-05-08)
* More general fix to the hanging tar issue. Thanks to Eric Gallager (cooljeanius)
for suggesting and testing this option. Thanks, also, to Murr.
* Improved "fink list --dotty-build".
* Suggest using "fink configure" when facing legacy fink.conf path issue.
* clang and clang++ wrappers, mostly for 10.6/i386.
* Other bugfixes.
0.34.7 "overhead track" (2013-03-29)
* Bugfix: address issue where fink's tar hangs during unpack operations. Thanks to
Peter Dyballa for the workaround.
0.34.6 "Hook and loop" (2013-03-16)
* Support 10.8.3.
* Clean up error reports from missing system commands.
0.34.5 "suction cup hook" (2013-01-28)
* Fix clang virtual package detection against Xcode 4.6+.
* Update 10.4/base and 10.7/base package description files to match latest versions
in bootstrap.
* Removed a number of spurious virtual perlmods.
* Check for valid Buildpath and FetchAltDir during 'fink configure'.
* Additional documentation.
0.34.4 "Ceiling Mount" (2012-09-25)
* Support 10.8.2 and 10.7.5
* Check permissions in working directories to make sure that fink-bld can
operate.
0.34.3 "wall anchor" (2012-08-29)
* Support 10.8.1.
* Move Essential packages to gettext8.
* Update 10.4/base and 10.7/base package description files to match latest versions
in bootstrap.
* Bugfixes
* Fix .deb validator test for compiled perlmods.
* Remove fontconfig2 and xft2 from x11 virtual package Provides,
since we're using Fink packages for those exclusively now.
* Update fink.conf manpage to include Distribution: 10.8.
0.34.2 "magnetic" (2012-08-04)
* Bugfixes
* Fix test for unused UIDs/GIDs in Services.pm to allow checking
them separately. This permits fink to restore the fink-bld user when
the Mountain Lion installer clobbers the user but not the group.
* BuildAsNobody: false issues:
* Don't have fink-bld own directories in such cases.
* SplitOffs should inherit the same behavior as their parent.
* Scrub a newline when finding the Developer directory via backticks
in AppBundles generation (thanks to J. Steverud for the diagnosis).
0.34.1 "hanger" (2012-07-26)
* Add a "pre-build-test.sh" script to check for system executables that fink
needs.
* Currently we test for presence and executability of /usr/bin/pod2man.
* Modified the following to run pre-build-test.sh:
* fink.info.in -> fink-*.info
* inject.pl (replaces check from 0.34.0)
* bootstrap (replaces check from 0.34.0)
* Bugfixes
* Use the results of the 64-bit Intel check in bootstrap to determine
whether users are offered the option of a 64-bit install.
* Remove virtual package for IPC::Run3 since no system Perl actually
provides it.
* Restore ability to run SplitForks on app bundles when using Xcode 4.3 and later
by switching from hardcoded /Developer to a portable construct.
* Fix parsing of indented TarFilesRename fields.
* Fix order of entries in %p/var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.md5sums .
* Add this file to the files installed by fink.
0.34.0 "bracket" (2012-07-16)
* Initial Mountain Lion support.
* Refuse to bootstrap when /usr/bin/pod2man isn't executable.
* Use only Apple- or Fink-provided helper applications, e.g. rsync
rather than arbitrary, possibly broken, third-party ones.
* The only downloader which is now provided by Apple is curl, so stop
checking in /usr/bin for wget, aria2, ....
/-------------
| fink 0.33.x
\-------------
0.33.3 "Higgsino" (2012-07-05)
* Bugfix: force fink to put temporary scripts in /tmp when building as
fink-bld to avoid failures under "sudo -E -s" and "su -m".
* Generate the MD5sums of all of the files for a package. These are available
under %p/var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.md5sums.
* Suppress STDERR messages from xcodebuild for folks who insist on _not_
having Xcode.app.
* Have the Version for xcode (>=4.3.0) correspond to the entire version string
from "pkgutil --pkg-info com.apple.pkg.DeveloperToolsCLI".
* Bugfix: 0.33.3.1: fixes and performance improvements in the md5sum routine.
* Bugfix: 0.33.3.2: more fixes for the md5sum generator
0.33.2 "sup squark" (2012-06-20)
* Bugfix:
* Use output from '/usr/libexec/java_home' to generate default
JAVA_HOME for builds.
* This works on 10.5-10.7, so it's probably going to change at some
point without warning. :-)
* Better logic in checking for the expected gcc compilers.
0.33.1 "Wino" (2012-06-12)
* Bug fixes:
* Justin Hallett discovered that 'id' from coreutils-default and
/usr/bin/id behave differently, which causes the fink-bld user
not to get set up properly. Hardcoding /usr/bin/id solves this.
* Fixed stray diagnostic message from system SDK detection (Thanks
to Remko Scharoo for the report).
0.33.0 "selectron" (2012-06-11)
* Recognize OS 10.7.4.
* Make fink use --build-as-nobody by default.
* move creation of fink-bld user, if not already present, into fink
rather than passwd(-fink-bld).
* If not present, use 'fink configure' to set up the fink-bld user's
parameters, and it will be created on the next operation where a
build could occur.
* BuildAsNobody: false field for .info files where the package can't be
built as nobody.
* --no-build-as-nobody option for fink to override this default option
and build as root.
* %p/Library/Python is now a legal directory.
* Modify the versioning of the "xcode" virtual package.
* Version of the CLI Tools, if those are installed, for OS 10.7+.
* Still the version of Xcode.app for Xcode 4.2.1-.
* "xcode.app" virtual package indicates the presence of Xcode.app, and its
version is the version of the app for all Xcode versions.
* Diagnostic output modifications for packages that have UseMaxBuildJobs:
false.
/-------------
| fink 0.32.x
\-------------
0.32.6 "unicycle" (2012-04-14)
* Add validator support for 'BuildAsNobody: false' in preparation for
making --build-as-nobody the default build method.
0.32.5 "spinning" (2012-04-07)
* Supports bootstrap with only the Xcode Command Line Tools.
* clang virtual package
* llvm-gcc virtual package
* Clean up gcc* virtual packages:
* Get rid of compilers in the defaults list that aren't available
for any modern Xcode.
* Use an OS version dependent list so that users can tell whether
they need to install a different Xcode or if the package is just
wrong. :-)
* Bugfixes:
* Message concerning RuntimeDepends now mentions fink (>=0.32.0)
rather than the less user-friendly (>=0.31.99.git).
* Have a default value if no system SDKs are found to avoid
"unitialized value" errors.
* 0.32.5 -> 0.32.5.2: these updates didn't get applied.
* 0.32.5.2 -> 0.32.5.3: 10.7 needs gcc4.2, not gcc4.0.
* 0.32.5.3 -> 0.32.5.4: Fix some regressions from master,
including bootstrap text.
* 0.32.5.5: Fix bootstrap on PowerPC.
0.32.4 "pedicab" (2012-03-27)
* Improved checksum validation.
* Enhance Xcode 4.3 support via the use of syscalls rather than
hardcoded paths.
* Other locations for Xcode.app than just /Applications.
* System SDK's now show up again.
* Make list of potential system SDKs OS-version dependent rather than
one list for everybody, to avoid user confusion if a package Bdeps
on an SDK which is *nonexistent* for a given Xcode (immediate failure
mention package unavailaibility versus more verbose message telling
user to install that SDK from Xcode). SDKs which _can_ be installed
will still give a message telling the user to install them from Xcode.
0.32.3 "velocipede" (2012-02-16)
* Support Xcode 4.3
0.32.2 "ordinary" (2012-02-03)
* Bugfix: flag to use pax as the unarchiver was not getting unset for
the next SourceN.
* Support OS 10.7.3.
0.32.1 "penny-farthing" (2012-01-26)
* Bugfix: get_build_directory() needed to include tar.xz as an option or
packages with a simple Source: foo.tar.xz would fail.
0.32.0 "recumbent" (2012-01-25)
* Added new "RuntimeDepends" field, any .info file that wants to use this
feature must BuildDepend on fink (>= 0.32.0-1).
* Improved package validator to reject .deb files including .hg / .git
directories.
* Improved package validator to detect some issues with percent expansions.
* Cleaned up the code base, including removal of some dead code for old OS X
version, and anything related to the AddShlibDeps .info field.
* Updated fink and fink.conf man pages.
* Disallow bootstrapping into /usr/local and any subdir of it.
* Disallow bootstrapping on OS X 10.4 and older.
* Removed the obsolete prebinding code (it was for OS X 10.4 and older).
* Let 'tar' handle compressed tar files directly.
* xz archive support.
* Includes validation check with 0.32 as minimum fink
version for .xz formatted archives.
* Automatic unpacking source files in .tar.xz format.
* Automatically install the xz package with no need to declare a
BuildDepend when a SourceN is a .xz file.
* Check Xcode version in bootstrap phase before actually creating a Fink tree.
* Check for -I or -L pointing to the builddir or install dir in .pc files.
* Diagnostic message improvements
* Mention "passwd-fink-bld" instead of "passwd" when the fink-bld user
is absent, since there's no "passwd" on 10.7.
* In error messages, suggest that users try rebuilds with MaxBuildJobs: 1
if that's set higher, and print MBJ in the system info.
* Stress emailing _only one_ Fink mailing list for bug reports.

| fink 0.31.x (see https://github.com/fink/fink/tree/branch_0_31)
\-------------
0.31.6 "supine" (2012-01-03)
* BugFixes: cvs proxy tunnel doesn't support 'user:password', so strip that
that from information passed via ProxyHTTP.
ext method doesn't support proxy tunneling.
0.31.5 "deceit" (2011-11-21)
* BugFix: gcc-4.2 isn't available after clean installs of Xcode 4.2, so
users weren't able to bootstrap on 10.6/Xcode 4.2. Revert the compiler
wrappers to point to gcc|g++ rather than (gcc|g++)-4.2.
0.31.4 "perfidy" (2011-10-28)
* Synced base .info files against latest versions from dists.
* Added support for Xcode 4.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.
* Fixed bootstrap issue when GNU sed is in the PATH.
* Updated mirror list.
0.31.3 "mendacity" (2011-10-12)
* Added support for Mac OS X 10.7.2.
* Added support for App Store version of Growl.app as well as legacy prefpane.
0.31.2 "perjury" (2011-09-26)
* No longer enforce "BDep:fink>=0.24.12" for use of PatchFile (nothing older
than that would be usable now anyway)
* Building with the number of threads specified by MaxBuildJobs is now
default (i.e. UseMaxBuildJobs: true is the default) unless
MaxBuildJobs: false is set.
* InstallScript always disables UseMaxBuildJobs.
0.31.1 ""little white"" (2011-09-11)
* Added support for Mac OS X 10.7.1.
* Allow 32 bit systems to bootstrap on 10.6.
* Simplified some code by taking advantage of the fact that the minimal
supported OS version now is 10.5.
* Bug fixes
0.31.0 "fib" (2011-07-20)
* Added support for Mac OS X 10.7.
* Dropped support for any Mac OS X version before 10.5. So 10.5, 10.6 and
10.7 are the only supported OS X versions now.
* Bug fixes
