[007] - apt4rpm 0.65.3 (Stable)
by Richard Bos (http://freshmeat.net/users/rjmbos/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 13:09

System :: Installation/Setup
System :: Software Distribution

About: The superb Debian package installer APT has since some time become
available for RPM-based distributions. However, to install RPM packages
with apt, an apt repository is needed. apt4rpm creates the apt repository
from an RPM repository. The rpm repository can be located locally or
remotely. Once the apt repository has been created with apt4rpm, the apt
tools can be used to install RPMs.

Changes: A buffer overflow bug seen if the APT repository is stored on a
filesystem of at least several gigabytes has been fixed. The documentation
and the make environment have been updated.

[008] - Asymptopia Crossword Builder 1.0a
by asymptopia (http://freshmeat.net/users/asymptopia/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 10:17

Education
Education :: Testing
Games/Entertainment :: Puzzle Games

About: Asymptopia Crossword Builder is a JavaScript application. A robust
GUI allows users to submit arbitrary length lists of key-hint pairs which
can be regenerated an unlimited number of times until the user wants to
accept the layout. The dhtml interface provides a configuration panel,
key- generating panel (i.e. answer sheet), puzzle-generating panel (blank
squares with numbers for accross/down), and an across-down-hints panel
which generates the text hints and numerical location on the puzzle. It
includes support for hyphenated words, and an example file demonstrating
how you can produce math crosswords.

Changes: A toggle for allowing the placement algorithm to place
unconnected words is provided on the "generator" panel. The intent is that
more fitting options will be available if the algorithm gets stuck, and
usually the unconnected submission gets connected later. In the interest
of speed, the online copy has moved to Sourceforge.

Changes: This release adds a new module that uses GNU MP for certain
low-level operations, leading to very substantial performance increases.
The zlib and bzip2 compression modules now use Botan's normal allocators,
so they clear/lock their memory. Various minor new features and
optimizations are also available.

Utilities

About: cpShuffleSature randomly copies files. It is designed for copying
music, pictures, or films onto portable hardware devices which serve as a
filesystem (such as I-Bead, iPod, or Archos). The source subdirectories
are replicated on the target and many options are provided (parts of the
original directory names filtering, a given amount of available space on
the target filesystem preservation, copying of whole directories, size of
each target directory limits, etc.). A history file tracks the activity to
reduce over- and under-copying of any file.

Changes: This release adds some bugfixes and a history of files copied
which can be used during the random selection to avoid over- or
under-copying some files.

[016] - DKMS 0.99.01
by lerhaupt (http://freshmeat.net/users/lerhaupt/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 14:42

System :: Systems Administration

About: DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module Support) is a framework where device
driver source can reside outside the kernel source tree so that it is very
easy to rebuild modules as you upgrade kernels. This allows Linux vendors
to provide driver drops without having to wait for new kernel releases (as
a stopgap before the code can make it back into the kernel), while also
taking out the guesswork for customers attempting to recompile modules for
new kernels. For veteran Linux users it also provides some advantages
since a separate framework for driver drops will remove kernel releases as
a blocking mechanism for distributing code.

Changes: This release has the version bumped to 0.99 to convey impending
1.00 release status. A MODULES_CONF_OBSOLETE_ONLY[#] directive array is
available in dkms.conf. This array, when set to "yes", informs DKMS to
only modify /etc/modules.conf if it finds an obsolete reference within it
as specified in the MODULES_CONF_OBSOLETES[#] array. This release will
only bother to remove /etc/modules.conf entries during an uninstall if
REMAKE_INITRD is set, or if you are uninstalling your module from the last
kernel that it is installed on.

[017] - dobackup.pl 4.26
by Ian E. Morgan (http://freshmeat.net/users/imorgan/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 14:44

System :: Archiving :: Backup

About: dobackup.pl is a flexible Perl script to handle unattended
incremental backups of multiple servers. It handles multiple media sets
with automatic media preparation and rotation, configurable
'what-to-backup', global per-host exclusion patterns, and user settable
'don't-back-this-up' metafiles. Its design goal is zero-maintenance,
nothing to do except change the media when told.

Changes: This release fixes a couple of minor bugs in the ejection code,
and improves the error logging included in the email report after a failed
backup. All packages now include GPG signatures. RPM now requires the Perl
module Config::IniFiles.

Friday, November 21st 2003 09:46

Software Development
Software Development :: Documentation

About: Doxygen is a cross-platform, JavaDoc-like documentation system for
C++, C, C#, Java, IDL, and PHP. Doxygen can be used to generate an on-line
class browser (in HTML) and/or an off-line reference manual (in LaTeX or
RTF) from a set of source files. Doxygen can also be configured to extract
the code-structure from undocumented source files. This includes
dependency graphs, class diagrams and hyperlinked source code. This type
of information can be very useful to quickly find your way in large source
distributions.

Changes: Dot images are now regenerated only if they change. Support for
parsing pre-ANSI K&R style C code was added. Some minor enhancements to
the XML output were made. The source code is now searchable via the new
PHP-based search engine. A large number of bugs have been fixed.

[020] - File cache class 2003.11.20
by Manuel Lemos (http://freshmeat.net/users/mlemos/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 03:24

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes

About: File cache class is a PHP Class that can cache arbitrary data in
files in order to reduce the time necessary to regenerate pages or other
types of data that do not change every time they are requested. It
features safe locking of cache files to avoid data corruption caused by
simultaneous accesses during cache file updates, portable locking schemes,
and the ability to set a cache expiry date or timeout period. Cache files
can store user-defined headers besides the cached data, and also standard
headers used in HTTP like content-length:, date:, expires:, etag:, etc. It
has been tested under Linux, SunOS and Windows.

Changes: This release implements a function, "updating", that determines
if the cache is currently locked for update by a concurrent process, or
if the cache is available for reading or updating. A simple example of
usage of the class is also provided.

Changes: The command line client can now talk to SMTP servers. The
CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5 mechanisms no longer require Libgcrypt (but can
still use it if available). DocBook manuals are included. Several
portability and interoperability bugs were fixed.

[043] - Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator 7.25
by astormchaser (http://freshmeat.net/users/astormchaser/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 14:45

System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration

About: Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator allows beginning-to-advanced network
administrators to control bandwidth. It is designed to be completely
turn-key in its default configuration. You just plug it into your network
trunk, and it self configures and immediately starts slowing "bandwidth
hogs". It can be configured to target specific applications such as Kazaa,
IMAP, and POP. It also comes with denial of service protection and a
special reservation system for voice and video traffic QOS.

Changes: This release stabilizes the 7.0 beta that introduced shaping for
uplink and downlink. It has fixes for problems with the accuracy of
setting separate limits for downlink/uplink by host. It also fixes the
content filtering feature, which had been disabled in prior releases due
to a reliability problem. It fixes a problem with turning the default
rules off. Turning the default rules off turns off the background shaping
so that only your custom limits will be in effect.

by Jörg Schilling (http://freshmeat.net/users/schily/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 03:25

System :: Archiving
System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Compression

About: Star is a very fast, POSIX-compliant tar archiver. It reads and
writes POSIX compliant tar archives as well as non-POSIX GNU tar archives.
Star is the first free POSIX.1-2001 compliant tar implementation. It saves
many files together into a single tape or disk archive, and can restore
individual files from the archive. It includes command line interfaces for
the "tar", "Sun-Tar", "cpio", "pax" and "gnutar" cmdline syntax. It
includes a FIFO for speed, a pattern matcher, multi-volume support, the
ability to archive sparse files and ACLs, the ability to archive extended
file flags, automatic archive format detection, automatic byte order
recognition, automatic archive compression/decompression, remote archives,
and special features that allow star to be used for full and incremental
backups. It includes the only known platform independent "rmt" server
program that hides Linux incompatibilities. The "rmt" server from the star
package implements all Sun/GNU/Schily/BSD enhancements and allows any
"rmt" client from any OS to contact any OS as server.

Changes: This version fixes a 'ustar' file name handling bug introduced
with CPIO support in 1.5a22 that caused star to create star-specific
vendor unique extensions for unsplittable files <= 256 characters instead
of skipping them. Now only exactly one error message is printed for file
names that cannot be archived. It also fixes a bug introduced with 1.5a31
with star -dump that may have caused broken "SCHILY.dino" inode entries
to be written; this bug breaks incremental dumps and causes Syntax error
messages to be printed in extract mode.

you only have to download a new file.

Changes: IRC administrators can now maintain their own definitions file.
Help text has been cleaned up. Onjoin bots now have a random version reply
to look more like real users, and onjoin bots will not check channels that
are already monitored with a monbot. There is updated documentation and
many bugfixes for existing code.

(such as www.linuxpackages.net) for packages, compare them with installed
packages, and install new packages or upgrade installed packages, all with
a few simple commands.

Changes: This release updates the package version comparison routine,
fixes another occurrence of the URL malformed bug, and has more internal
updates for libslapt.

[062] - Sophster 0.9.2
by Steven Schaefer (http://freshmeat.net/users/mathews20/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 14:41

Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content

About: Sophster is an HTTP server that provides access to the Linux
server it's running on. It requires authentication and then takes on the
user and group ID of the credentials. File and folder access is then
limited by the user and group ID. It features file upload/download, file/
folder delete, move, copy, and rename, basic text editing, creation of
files and folders, and the ability to set permissions and user/group
ownership of files/folders.

Changes: This release has been compiled with support for a user
authentication filter. An issue where requests to move files between
partitions were ignored has been corrected. There is a subtle performance
gain due to fewer string length calculations. The ability to alter the
last accessed and last modified time stamps has been added. The logic has
been changed to add a hyperlink for the change user ownership link
regardless of the user browsing. Support has been added for OpenSSL.

[064] - The Nice programming language 0.9.4 (Development)
by Daniel Bonniot (http://freshmeat.net/users/bonniot/)
Friday, November 21st 2003 03:27

Software Development :: Compilers

About: Nice is a new object-oriented programming language based on Java.
It incorporates features from functional programming, and puts into
practice state-of-the-art results from academic research. Among the
advanced features: parametric types, anonymous functions, multi-methods,
tuples, optional parameters to methods, design by contract, detection of
many errors during compilation (in particular, concerning casts and null
references). This results in more expressivity, modularity, and type
safety.

Changes: This release provides source-level debugging support for recent
debuggers that implement jsr 45. It also adds several features, like more
flexible typing of parametric classes, efficiency improvements for some
anonymous functions, and fixes for a few important bugs.

About: Trackballs is a simple game similar to the classic game Marble
Madness. By steering a marble through a track filled with vicious hammers,

ball reaches the destination, the player continue to the next, more
difficult track - unless, of course, time runs out first.

Changes: This release adds initial joystick support and some new sound
effects, and a new setting for 32bit color depth. It replaces some TTF
fonts with textured ones for faster rendering, and fixes some other small
bugs.

like a joystick, spaceball, or magnetic tracker.

Changes: There is a bugfix for the missing $DISPLAY setting on Mac OS X.
The logo has been rebuilt completely with NURBS modeling (and textures). A
forgotten change dealing with MS Windows rebuild work independent from
Cygwin tools has been applied.
