opkbuild 4.2.2 released 
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 4.2.2
======================

Utilities:

  * ob-buildopk now sets the modification time of the "control.tar.gz"
    and "data.tar.gz" files after compression rather than before,
    because BusyBox's gzip doesn't preserve modification times.
  * ob-buildenv now adds "-ffile-prefix-map" options to CFLAGS and
    CXXFLAGS.  It also now sets "TZ='UTC0'" and "LC_ALL='C'".
  * ob-gencontrol now reduces and normalizes binary package dependencies
    after substituting variables.  Otherwise, substitution variables may
    contain dependency restrictions or newline characters that are
    passed through to the binary package's control file.

libopkbuild:

  * ob_iso8601_gmtime() and ob_touch_t_gmtime() no longer trigger an
    infinite loop when passed times on January 1.  This time bomb broke
    ob-buildopk one day every year.

Locales:

  * "C" and "POSIX" locales have been added.  They are identical to the
    "en_US" locale.
