Fedora Project

  • Updated gtkwave to 3.3.28 in Rawhide:

    • Use larger, more readable Apple fonts for Quartz
    • Added support for colourful traces using the /Edit/Color Format/... menu options

    • Fixed rendertimes bug where times did not always display when grid is turned off
    • Added keep_xz_colors gtkwaverc variable

  • I dropped the upstreamed patch for glib2 header file inclusion and added another patch to fix an array size that was declared too small in globals.h, resulting in a compiler warning about array access beyond the end of the array in renderopt.c:

Local Packages

  • Updated gtkwave to 3.3.28 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated getmail to 4.22.2:

    • Fix an error when logging a bad response to an IMAP SELECT command, introduced in 4.21.0

Builder Update

  • Replaced the i7 cooler on my build machine again after the current cooler started running at half speed and being unable to keep the CPU sufficiently cool under load (the CPU-guzzling behaviour of gvfs-gdu-volume as described in Bug #600592 doesn't help either); the original cooler had failed in exactly the same way and the replacement lasted about 15 months.
