Changes from previous version of pkgconf
========================================

Changes from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1:
----------------------------

* Bug fixes:
  - pkg: properly separate static and virtual packages so they are not inappropriately
    optimized out of the dependency graph (#108)

* Enhancements:
  - many code fixes spotted by coverity

Changes from 1.1.0 to 1.2.0:
----------------------------

* Features:
  - new --path option lists the .pc files which provided the requested dependencies
  - new path relocation API: pkgconf_path_relocate(), which wraps functions such as
    realpath() and cygwin_conv_path().
  - new --with-path option adds a path to the search list
  - new --define-prefix and --dont-define-prefix features enable automatic prefix
    detection for relocatable SDKs.  this is mostly useful on windows.

* Bug fixes:
  - fragments: fix even more edge cases involving token concatenation
  - path lists: don't attempt to collect path inodes if the filter is disabled
  - path lists: explicitly avoid uninitialised data for the path inode cache
  - client: properly handle --keep-system-cflags and --keep-system-libs

* Enhancements:
  - windows: build libpkgconf as a DLL
  - fragments: only munge fragments if sysroot_dir is actually set
  - overall API: resolver flags have been moved to being a client-object setting
    instead of used for every function invocation

Changes from 1.0.1 to 1.1.0:
----------------------------

* Features:
  - new Provides system allows alternate .pc files to provide a dependency
  - stable library API (with documentation): http://pkgconf.readthedocs.io/

* Enhancements:
  - make it possible to programmatically declare dependencies instead of just using the parser
  - testsuite migrated to run under kyua
  - provide a libpkgconf.pc file for consumers to use
  - pkgconf client: new --pure flag to enable dependency graph optimization in --static mode
  - significant .pc parser speedups using bsearch(3).
  - handle -idirafter in the same way as -isystem CFLAGS
  - learn toolchain "system" paths from GCC environment variables, if present
  - filter duplicate PKG_CONFIG_PATH (and other) entries by inode

* Bug fixes:
  - fragments: fix another edge case involving empty tokens being concatenated onto previous tokens (#99)
  - libpkgconf: remove dependencies on config.h in public headers

Changes from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1:
