- Changes in 1.4.12-stable:
 o Try to contain degree of failure when running on a win32 version so
   heavily firewalled that we can't fake a socketpair.
 o Fix an obscure timing-dependent, allocator-dependent crash in the evdns code.
 o Use __VA_ARGS__ syntax for varargs macros in event_rpcgen when compiler
   is not GCC.
 o Activate fd events in a pseudorandom order with O(N) backends, so
   that we don't systematically favor low fds (select) or earlier-added fds
   (poll, win32).
 o Fix another pair of fencepost bugs in epoll.c.  [Patch from Adam Langley.]
 o Do not break evdns connections to nameservers when our IP changes.
 o Set truncated flag correctly in evdns server replies.
 o Disable strict aliasing with GCC: our code is not compliant with it.
 
- Changes in 1.4.11-stable:
 o Fix a bug when removing a timeout from the heap. [Patch from Marko Kreen]
 o Remove the limit on size of HTTP headers by removing static buffers.
 o Fix a nasty dangling pointer bug in epoll.c that could occur after
   epoll_recalc(). [Patch from Kevin Springborn]
 o Distribute Win32-Code/event-config.h, not ./event-config.h
 
- Changes in 1.4.10-stable:
 o clean up buffered http connection data on reset; reported by Brian O'Kelley
 o bug fix and potential race condition in signal handling; from Alexander Drozdov
 o rename the Solaris event ports backend to evport
 o support compilation on Haiku
 o fix signal processing when a signal callback delivers a signal; from Alexander Drozdov
 o const-ify some arguments to evdns functions.
 o off-by-one error in epoll_recalc; reported by Victor Goya
 o include Doxyfile in tar ball; from Jeff Garzik
 o correctly parse queries with encoded \r, \n or + characters

- updated to 1.4.9-stable:
 o event_add would not return error for some backends; from Dean McNamee
 o Clear the timer cache on entering the event loop; reported by Victor Chang
 o Only bind the socket on connect when a local address has been provided;
   reported by Alejo Sanchez
 o Allow setting of local port for evhttp connections to support millions
   of connections from a single system; from Richard J ones.
 o Clear the timer cache when leaving the event loop; reported by Robin Haberkorn
 o Fix a typo in setting the global event base; reported by lance.
 o Fix a memory leak when reading multi-line headers
 o Fix a memory leak by not running explicit close detection for server connections

- updated to 1.4.8-stable:
 o Match the query in DNS replies to the query in the request; from Vsevolod Stakhov.
 o Fix a merge problem in which name_from_addr returned pointers to the stack; found by Jiang Hong.
 o Do not remove Accept-Encoding header
        
- updated to 1.4.7-stable:
 o Fix a bug where headers arriving in multiple packets were not parsed; fix from Jiang Hong; test by me.
        
- updated to 1.4.6-stable:
 o evutil.h now includes <stdarg.h> directly
 o switch all uses of [v]snprintf over to evutil
 o Correct handling of trailing headers in chunked replies; from Scott Lamb.
 o Support multi-line HTTP headers; based on a patch from Moshe Litvin
 o Reject negative Content-Length headers; anonymous bug report
 o Detect CLOCK_MONOTONIC at runtime for evdns; anonymous bug report    
 o Fix a bug where deleting signals with the kqueue backend would cause subsequent adds to fail
 o Support multiple events listening on the same signal; make signals
   regular events that go on the same event queue; problem
   report by Alexander Drozdov.
 o Deal with evbuffer_read() returning -1 on EINTR|EAGAIN; from Adam Langley.
 o Fix a bug in which the DNS server would incorrectly set the type of a cname reply to a.
 o Fix a bug where setting the timeout on a bufferevent would take not effect if the event was already pending.
 o Fix a memory leak when using signals for some event bases; reported by Alexander Drozdov.
 o Add libevent.vcproj file to distribution to help with Windows build.
 o Fix a problem with epoll() and reinit; problem report by Alexander Drozdov.  
 o Fix off-by-one errors in devpoll; from Ian Bell
 o Make event_add not change any state if it fails; reported by Ian Bell.
 o Do not warn on accept when errno is either EAGAIN or EINTR

Tue Sep 16 17:54:14 CEST 2008 - mrueckert@suse.de

- split out devel and shared library package.
- drop static libs

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul  3 11:57:22 CEST 2008 - meissner@suse.de

- upgraded to version 1.4.5-stable:
 o Fix connection keep-alive behavior for HTTP/1.0
 o Fix use of freed memory in event_reinit; pointed out by Peter Postma
 o Constify struct timeval * where possible; pointed out by Forest
   Wilkinson
 o allow min_heap_erase to be called on removed members; from liusifan.
 o Rename INPUT and OUTPUT to EVRPC_INPUT and EVRPC_OUTPUT.  Retain
   INPUT/OUTPUT aliases on on-win32 platforms for backwards compatibility.
 o Do not use SO_REUSEADDR when connecting
 o Fix Windows build
 o Fix a bug in event_rpcgen when generated fixed-sized entries

- upgraded to version 1.4.4-stable:
 o Correct the documentation on buffer printf functions.
 o Don't warn on unimplemented epoll_create(): this isn't a problem,
   just a reason to fall back to poll or select.
 o Correctly handle timeouts larger than 35 minutes on Linux with epoll.c.
   This is probably a kernel defect, but we'll have to support old kernels
   anyway even if it gets fixed.
 o Fix a potential stack corruption bug in tagging on 64-bit CPUs.
 o expose bufferevent_setwatermark via header files and fix high watermark
   on read
 o fix a bug in bufferevent read water marks and add a test for them
 o introduce bufferevent_setcb and bufferevent_setfd to allow better
   manipulation of bufferevents
 o use libevent's internal timercmp on all platforms, to avoid bugs on
   old platforms where timercmp(a,b,<=) is buggy.
 o reduce system calls for getting current time by caching it.
 o fix evhttp_bind_socket() so that multiple sockets can be bound by
   the same http server.
 o Build test directory correctly with CPPFLAGS set.
 o Fix build under Visual C++ 2005.
 o Expose evhttp_accept_socket() API.
 o Merge windows gettimeofday() replacement into a new
   evutil_gettimeofday() function.
 o Fix autoconf script behavior on IRIX.
 o Make sure winsock2.h include always comes before windows.h include.
