Bind security update. Fix a bug with DNSSEC that causes negative |
30 |

20091228: |
35 |

amdtemp(4) was added. It allows one to monitor to the temperature |

amd64 users should use WITHOUT_LIB32=yes in /etc/make.conf for now |

63 |

Revert unicode filename fixes from ntfs code. This was causing chaos |
64 |

66 |

Patch for Bind 9 security vulnerability. a dynmaic update packet |
78 |

can trigger an assertion and cause named to exit |
79 |

|
80 |
+ |
20090606: |
81 |
+ |
Remove PCC from the base system. This compiler will not work |
82 |
+ |
as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment |
83 |
+ |
in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future. We're stuck |
84 |
+ |
with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum. |
85 |
+ |
|
86 |
+ |
I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is |
87 |
+ |
fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base |
88 |
+ |
system which makes no sense. |
89 |
+ |
|
90 |
+ |
A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to |
91 |
+ |
the kernel. This should cut down on commands it claims to support |
92 |
+ |
but does not (at the cam layer). Found while testing ZFS on |
93 |
+ |
an external device. |
94 |
+ |
|
95 |
+ |
20090520: |
96 |
+ |
The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve |
97 |
+ |
compatibility with many systems. However, there is a new |
98 |
+ |
installer option in the startup section to enable it. This |
99 |
+ |
makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks |
100 |
+ |
out my new Phenom too. |

Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root |
144 |
+ |
and skel were changed. mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1) |
145 |
+ |
as the default /bin/sh. Please report bugs with |
146 |
+ |
ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile |
147 |

as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as |
148 |

an optional build parameter. |
