[002] - A Sudoku Solver in C 1.11
  by Bill DuPree (http://freshmeat.net/users/wdupre1/)
  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 10:32

About: A Sudoku Solver in C is a console-based program that solves Su Doku
puzzles (a.k.a. Sudoku or Number Place) using deductive logic. It will only
resort to trial-and-error and backtracking approaches upon exhausting its
deductive moves. On an Athlon XP 3000, it solves about 10,800 medium
puzzles per second.

Changes: Code optimization has resulted in a 30% increase in speed.

About: Alambic is an enterprise class solution for creating and
distributing PDF documents in the home or corporate environment.
Implemented as a CUPS backend, it is able to generate PDF documents and
make them available by email or HTTP. It can use any PostScript to PDF
converter, though Ghostscript is the converter of choice used during
development.

Changes: This release adds #include to correct compilation bugs on SUSE
x86 64bits and changes log into AlambicLog (as some conflict might occur
with the logarithmic log function).

[004] - Arno's IPTABLES Firewall Script 1.8.6b
  by Arno (http://freshmeat.net/users/arnova/)
  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 10:29

System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Arno's IPTABLES Firewall Script is a secure stateful firewall for
both single and multi-homed machines. It supports NAT and SNAT, port
forwarding, ADSL ethernet modems with both static and dynamically assigned
IPs, MAC address filtering, stealth port scan detection, DMZ and DMZ-2-LAN
forwarding, protection against SYN/ICMP flooding, and extensive user
definable logging with rate limiting to prevent log flooding. It features
support for all IP protocols and VPNs such as IPSec. and is easy to
configure and highly customizable. A filter script that makes your
firewall log more readable is also included.

Changes: A problem in which a trailing tab in the Debian syslog.conf file
caused logrotate to fail was fixed. Several stupid bugs in the (NAT)
port/host helper functions which caused some (exotic) forwards not to work
were fixed. Messages are no longer directly logged to /var/log/messages,
but instead fed to syslog via "logger -p kern.info". The C locale is now
used for time stamps. Minor cosmetic changes and fixes were done.

  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 10:16

System :: Software Distribution
System :: Software Distribution Tools

About: autopackage allows developers to produce "install anywhere"
packages for 3rd party Linux software. The resulting packages support both
graphical and terminal frontends, support dependency checking and
resolution, and use deep desktop integration. Additionally, tools to
enhance the packaged software such as binreloc and relaytool are provided.
By providing an autopackage, developers can ensure their users always have
an easy way of installing the latest release of their software.

Changes: Various distribution compatibility fixes were made. The manager
icon is now installed properly. The download function was updated, which
shortens wget timeouts for quicker failover to mirrors. Tcl/Tk skeletons
were added. The Debian Menu System support was improved. Execution of
paths-bash by zsh is prevented. A generated Luau XML repository file will
use skeleton Repository meta-data as base URL. Packages will install (when
changed in the configuration file) to locations such as
/Apps/$SHORTNAME/$SOFTWAREVERSION again. "require" calls in the Prepare
section of apspec files can pass arguments to their skeleton.

[028] - Nuface 1.0-rc4
  by Vincent Deffontaines (http://freshmeat.net/users/gryzor/)
  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 06:30

Security
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Nuface is a Web-based administration tool that generates Edenwall,
NuFW, or simple Netfilter firewall rules. It features a high level
abstraction on the security policy set by the administrator, and works
internally on an XML data scheme. Its philosophy is to let you agglomerate
subjects, resources, or protocols into meta-objects, and use those meta
objects to generate ACLs, which are then interpreted as netfilter rules by
Nupyf, the internal XML parser. This tool may easily be extended to support
firewall implementations other than Netfilter.

Changes: This release adds support for uploading and downloading XML rules
files through the interface, support for multiple network description
files, and generation of NFQUEUE rules (for Linux 2.6.14 and greater). It
fixes a bug in DNAT rules generation.

Software Development :: Libraries
Text Processing
Text Processing :: Indexing

About: Oleander is a word stemming library that uses Porter algorithms.
Stemming refers to stripping a word down to a simpler prefix. This is
useful for "fuzzy" word matching by finding common prefixes between
similar words.

Changes: The English, Italian, Spanish, Norwegian, and Portuguese stemmers
were updated to include the latest changes made to the Porter algorithms.
Bugs in the Portuguese stemmer were fixed. A bug in the English stemmer
was fixed. Unicode is now supported. If the symbol UNICODE is globally
defined, stemmers now work with std::wstrings; otherwise, std::strings are
expected. Template arguments for stemmers were removed. Now you can just
declare "english_stem EnglishStemmer;". The license was changed to a
BSD-style license.

compact, and it strives for easy compilation and linking to other
applications. In seeking to address several issues associated with earlier
graphics APIs, Otk explores some interesting methods, such as
window-relative layout instead of pixel-based layout.

Changes: This package of Otk test programs includes scripts to
automatically compile and invoke them sequentially. The scripts enable
quickly testing OTK_LIB functionality. The package will be handy for
continued regression testing whenever otk_lib is changed or updated. It
checks that OTK and applications compile will on various platforms, and
exercises most features to test for proper operations.

[032] - papyrus Canvas Library 0.1.9
  by Rick Vinyard (http://freshmeat.net/users/rvinyard/)
  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 00:17

Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: User Interfaces

About: papyrus is a 2D C++ scenegraph (canvas) library that utilizes the
cairo library to perform drawing operations. In this respect, it is
similar in concept to the Gnome::Canvas library.

Changes: Significant changes were made in the Drawable class with SVG
inspired ViewBoxes that support meet and slice options. Several classes
were renamed to better reflect their purpose and to try and follow the SVG
naming conventions where objects have similar purposes. Two new drawables
were added: Face and Arrow, which are to be used respectively as a 2D test
shape (similar to OpenGL's teapot) and as line arrows. Two new Gtkmm
widgets were also added: LineWidthComboBox and ArrowComboBox.

Software Development
Software Development :: Code Generators

About: Redet is a tool for developing and executing regular expressions
using any of more than 40 search programs, editors, and programming
languages, intended both for developing regular expressions for use
elsewhere and as a search tool in its own right. For each program in each
locale, a palette showing the available constructs is provided. The
properties of each program are determined by runtime tests, which
guarantees that they will be correct for the program version and locale.
Additional features include persistent history, extensive help, a variety
of character entry tools, and the ability to change locale while running.
Redet is highly configurable and fully supports Unicode.

Changes: Support for minised and supersed was added. A feature test and
palette entry were added for the Perl \C single octet construct. A bug
that made programs inappropriately fail the character range test was
fixed.

in UTF-8. There are two index levels, compression, and tools to convert
from text files to .dct and vice versa. A Perl/Tk version, libsdict, a C
library framework, and a Symbian version are available.

Changes: A lot of changes were made in ptksdict GUI. The "--geometry="
switch was added.

[045] - yruba 2.3
  by Harald Kirsch (http://freshmeat.net/users/pifpafpuf/)
  Sat, Mar 25th 2006 04:26

Software Development :: Build Tools

About: Yruba provides a rule system similar to make or ant for the shell
(bash). It provides a clear separation between a list of dependencies that
must be up-to-date before the current task can be performed, an explicit
test that checks whether the target is really out-of-date, and a command
that finally makes the target. Everything is plain bash syntax, so there
is no new command language to learn.

Changes: Previously, Yruba used local variables in some of its functions
that where not prefixed with yruba_. Because tests and commands are not
called in a subshell, they could inadvertently change such internal
variables and produce hard-to-understand errors. The prefix yruba_ has
been introduced wherever necessary. Also, the documentation has been
improved slightly.
