Announcements and tidying up will follow eventually. There's no particular hurry, since it's best if it propagates to mirrors before all and sundry try to retrieve it. I get a clean compilation and corect tests on Linux and Solaris with this. If anyone happens to know how to release a module on sourceforge, the files zsh-3.1.7.tar.gz zsh-3.1.7-doc.tar.gz are in /home/groups/zsh. Otherwise I'll look at it sometime. Now it's out, anything held over from checking in might as well go in --- even if something turns up and we need to produce a revision soon, it might as well have the latest stuff in it. I don't envisage having to branch the archive at this point (but I would say that). I have spent ridiculous amounts of time fighting with trivial problems including but not limited to: - modlist.yo wasn't built properly here. Probably another feature of Solaris sed which needs working round. (Not yet done.) - modlist.yo wasn't in .distfiles, so the compiling machine always thought it had to remake it. This was bad news if you didn't have yodl. (Fixed.) - making the doc distribution doesn't work on sourceforge because tex etc. aren't there, unless anyone knows better. Argh. I've just made it here. I think as long as the YODL files are up-to-date before making that should be OK. - The link from sourceforge to zsh.org was bad, presumably temporary. - The autoconf versions there and here differ in producing tests for awk versions, one giving `mawk gawk', the other `gawk mawk'. It's not important, but I suppose it's a good idea to try to synchronise autoconf versions as much as possible. - I'm also unhappy about the way autoconf puts in the cygwin test --- it seems to run into the mingw32 test incorrectly (line 1558). I don't know if an upgrade might help that. I haven't dared change it by hand. -- Peter Stephenson Cambridge Silicon Radio, Unit 300, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0XL, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 392070
