The sections that follow provide information on OpenSS7 releases of the
OpenSS7 STREAMS Network Services Library package.
Major changes for release strnsl-0.9.2.2
-----------------------------------------
This is the second separate release from `The OpenSS7 Project' of the
`OpenSS7 STREAMS Network Services Library' package. This package
provides the `libxnsl' library providing the Network Selection Facility
for the Network Services Library. The package contains all the
necessary manual pages and other documentation. The package is
packaged as an OpenSS7 style autoconf tarball.
This is the second alpha release for `Linux Fast-STREAMS' and is part of
the OpenSS7 Master Package (`openss7-0.9.2.E'). The release provides
support for recent distributions and tool chains.
Major features since the last public release are as follows:
- Improvements to the common build environment with better support
for standalone package builds on 2.4 kernels.
- Support for autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10 and gettext 0.16.
- Support for Ubuntu 6.10 distribution and bug fixes for i386 kenels.
- The package now looks for other subpackages with a version number
as unpacked by separate tarball.
_This is a public alpha release of the package: it deprecates previous
releases. Please upgrade to the current release before reporting bugs.
Please see `README-alpha' in the release, or `Maturity', in the
manual._
As with other OpenSS7 releases, this release configures, compiles,
installs and builds RPMs and DEBs for a wide range of Linux 2.4 and 2.6
RPM- and DPKG-based distributions, and can be used on production
kernels without patching or recompiling the kernel.
This package is publicly released under the `GNU General Public License
Version 2'. The release is available as an `autoconf' tarball, SRPM,
DSC, and set of binary RPMs and DEBs. See the downloads page
(http://www.openss7.org/download.html) for the `autoconf' tarballs,
SRPMs and DSCs. For tarballs, SRPMs, DSCs and binary RPMs and DEBs,
see the strnsl package page (http://www.openss7.org/strnsl_pkg.html).
