from 1.2.3 update homepage and license changes: - remove 1.2.3.3 patch - breakdown autotools.patch to configure.ac and Makefile.am, update src in Makefile.am and use do_configure_prepend instead - remove README from LIC_FILES_CHKSUM because it duplicates zlib.h and also causes checksum to change for every release - remove visibility.patch: the purpose of the patch was to change "<type> ZEXPORT" to "ZEXPORT <type>", however: 1. the use of ZEXPORT and ZEXTERN have been changed a lot in zlib, there is no changelog to indicate which version was the patch based on and its rationale 2. zlib used to set default visibility to `hidden' (-fvisibility=hidden), and override external symbols with `default' visibility, it had caused a lot of problems on different platforms. But starting from 1.2.5, default visibility is now `default', `hidden' visibility override has effect only for the correct GCC versions, most visibility related issues should have already been fixed http://mail.madler.net/pipermail/zlib-devel_madler.net/2010-April/002045.html 3. as for now, ZEXPORT is used in Win/BeOS only, and can expand to WINAPI or __declspec(dllexport), both of which should be put behind return type, so there is no need to patch In conclusion, the patch is not applicable for the current release, so it's removed Signed-off-by: Qing He <qing.he@intel.com> |
