About
=====

opkbuild is a distribution build system -- a set of tools for building
software packages.  From source packages it builds binary packages for
use with the opkg package manager.

Currently one format of source package is supported by opkbuild:
ProteanOS Source Package Format 2.0:

    http://specs.proteanos.com/spf-2.0/

opkbuild is similar in function to the development library and utilities
of dpkg, the Debian package manager:

    https://packages.debian.org/sid/dpkg-dev
    https://packages.debian.org/sid/libdpkg-perl
    https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/

NEWS for Version 4.2.1
======================

"Now winterized to prevent freezing in December!"

Utilities:

  * ob-gencontrol now strips newlines from "Build-Depends" fields
    instead of generating invalid control files.  All spacing of
    dependency control fields is now normalized using ob_parse_dep().

libopkbuild:

  * ob_iso8601_gmtime() and ob_touch_t_gmtime() no longer trigger an
    infinite loop when passed times in December.  This time bomb
    introduced in opkbuild version 4.1.1 broke ob-buildopk one month
    every year.
