  24 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    Fix pppd metric, #193574 thanks to Martin Väth.

  21 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    Use a pty for prefixed output instead of pipes for stdout/stderr. This
    is so that programs can get information about the controlling terminal.
    This change was triggered by bug #188506 where it's possible that
    stdin, stdout and stderr didn't point to a terminal but ended up on one
    via our pipes. Using a pty means that stdout and stderr always point to
    a terminal, but we lose the ability to tell them apart.
    If there is not a pty available then we use un-prefixed output as normal.
    This change has also introduced the need for a signal pipe so that
    SIGCHLD can exit the loop cleanly.

  20 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    libeinfo now works out the number of columns from stdout rather than
    stdin, #188506.

  19 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    Added the checkown applet based on the work by Renato Caldas, #192682
    checkdir ensures that the specified files (or directories) are owned
    by the current user/group or as specified on the command line. You can
    optionally check permissions too.

    Change from /lib/rcscripts to /lib/rc and adjust our files so changing
    our libdir is much easier in future. This move makes sense it's so much
    more than a holding place for our scripts now. It also has the added
    benefit of not loading the splash plugin for rc4 and lower which is
    ABI incompatible with us now.

    plugin hook function is now rc_plugin_hook instead of a name based
    on the name of the plugin.

  18 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    Only mount /sys if it's not mounted, #192436.

    API changes!

    rc_ls_dir, rc_get_config and rc_get_list no longer take a starting list
    as a first argument. Instead, use rc_strlist_join to append or prepend
    the new list to an existing list.

    rc_strlist_add and friends now take char *** instead of char ** and
    return a pointer to the item added instead of the new list head. This is
    so we can easily tell if the item was successfully added or not instead
    of iterating through the list looking for it. 
	
    list = rc_strlist_add (list, item);
    becomes
    rc_strlist_add (&list, item);

  17 Sep 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    is not specified, #191206.

  02 Sep 2007; Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>:

    in some 2.4 setups.

    "modules-update" -> "update-modules".

  05 Apr 2007; Roy Marples <uberlord@gentoo.org>:

    Rewrite the core parts in C. We now provide librc so other programs can
    query runlevels, services and state without using bash. We also provide
    libeinfo so other programs can easily use our informational functions.
    
    As such, we have dropped the requirement of using bash as the init script
    shell. We now use /bin/sh and have strived to make the scripts as portable
    as possible. Shells that work are bash and dash. busybox works provided
    you disable s-s-d. If you have WIPE_TMP set to yes in conf.d/bootmisc you
    should disable find too.
    zsh and ksh do not work at this time.

    Networking support is currently being re-vamped also as it was heavily bash
    array based. As such, a new config format is available like so
    config_eth0="1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8/16"
    or like so
    config_eth0="'1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0' '5.6.7.8 netmask 255.255.0.0'"

    We will still support the old bash array format provided that /bin/sh IS
    a link it bash.

    ChangeLog for baselayout-1 can be found in our SVN repo.
