Slackware 13.0slackware-13.0

Wed Aug 26 10:00:38 CDT 2009
Slackware 13.0 x86_64 is released as stable!  Thanks to everyone who
helped make this release possible -- see the RELEASE_NOTES for the
credits.  The ISOs are off to the replicator.  This time it will be a
6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.
We're taking pre-orders now at store.slackware.com.  Please consider
picking up a copy to help support the project.  Once again, thanks to
the entire Slackware community for all the help testing and fixing
things and offering suggestions during this development cycle.
As always, have fun and enjoy!  -P.

+Bug-Description:
+
+In some cases, code that is intended to be used in the presence of multibyte
+characters is called when no such characters are present, leading to incorrect
+display position calculations and incorrect redisplay.

+Readline neglects to reallocate the array it uses to keep track of wrapped
+screen lines when increasing its size.  This will eventually result in
+segmentation faults when given sufficiently long input.

+Bug-Description:
+
+When moving the cursor, bash sometimes misplaces the cursor when the prompt
+contains two or more multibyte characters.  The particular circumstance that
+uncovered the problem was having the (multibyte) current directory name in

+When rl_read_key returns -1, indicating that readline's controlling terminal
+has been invalidated for some reason (e.g., receiving a SIGHUP), the error

+The readline display code miscalculated the screen position when performing
+a redisplay in which the new text occupies more screen space that the old,

+containing multibyte characters with a longer one containing only ASCII).

+			   READLINE PATCH REPORT
+			   =====================
+
+Readline-Release: 5.2
+Patch-ID: readline52-013
+
+Bug-Reported-by:	slinkp <stuff@slinkp.com>
+Bug-Reference-ID:	<da52a26a-9f38-4861-a918-14d3482b539d@c65g2000hsa.googlegroups.com>
+Bug-Reference-URL:	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2008-05/msg00085.html
+
+Bug-Description:
+
+The presence of invisible characters in a prompt longer than the screenwidth
+with invisible characters on the first and last prompt lines caused readline
+to place the cursor in the wrong physical location.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+readline: readline (line input library with editing features)
+readline:
+readline: The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
+readline: applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed
+readline: in.  Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available.  The Readline
+readline: library includes additional functions to maintain a list of previously
+readline: entered command lines, to recall and perhaps edit those lines, and
+readline: perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands.
