you didn't have to add a new bug, just reopen the old one
version bumped to 1.2.1 Changes: The performance on slow computers has been greatly improved. It is now possible to connect to Web servers that are not running on the standard port 80. Two rare crash bugs have been fixed.
2003-09-12, 00:05 GMT Jere McDevitt noticed a rather stupid bug in the XML parsing code: if (feed->link != NULL); free (feed->link); Which will obviously crash of we try to free a NULL pointer. There is also a similar problem where we might strcmp() against a NULL pointer. Fortunately the impact of this problem should be rather small since only a few feeds are affected. ---- i've attached the patch and a new ebuild

Created attachment 18425 [details] snownews-1.2.2.ebuild Version 1.2.2 released 2003-09-20, 10:47 GMT Probably the most boring release ever since this only fixes the "fun with freeing NULL pointers" bugs and moves around some code to clean up things a bit. Clean up 2003-09-15, 18:25 GMT I've completely rewritten the development journal. The new location is http://home.kcore.de/~kiza/software/snownews/snowlog.rdf. Snownews will update this automatically. It's now a static page that is generated everytime I add an entry in contrast to the slow CGI before. The changelog's website has changed too, but no URL should've been broken. I've cleaned up the code a bit. Inspired by OpenBSD's porting docs it's now 100% sprintf free. ;) Every piece of doubtful C code is gone now. The remaining uses of strcat and strcpy should be fine (and in some cases difficult to replace with their "n" version). Word wrapping and other conversion code is not part of interface.c anymore. This file is getting too big anyway. Those functions have been moved to conversions.c where the charset conversion function already lived a lonely life.
Created attachment 18745 [details] snownews-1.2.3.ebuild Version 1.2.3 released 2003-10-03, 10:32 GMT Before if takes forever to get out a new version with the improved http client behaviour (see previous changelog entry) I'll just package this as 1.2.3. :)
in portage now
2003-10-15, 11:38 GMT This version contains gzip, deflate support in the http client, some minor code cleanups, zaro bugfixes over the previous version (hey, I didn't find any) and the new Type Ahead Find search function which is really cool, IMO. :) Read about it in the manpage. The Type Ahead feature was originally suggested by Kianga. So, don't forget to upgrade asap.

Created attachment 19976 [details] snownews-1.3.2.ebuild Version 1.3.2 released 2003-10-30, 12:37 GMT This release puts an end to the C preprocessor abuse in the Makefile and compiles/installs cleanly again on OS X 10.3. And since I'm running that on my iBook the change is significant enough to warrant a new version. ;)
1.3.4 in portage now
