Fedora Project

  • Updated gtkwave to 3.3.51 in F-20 and Rawhide:

    • Add gedit to the list of dependencies for gtkwave in order to enable new function that Icarus Verilog dumps into FST files

    • Fix "/File/Grab To File" on OSX with an OSX patch as the _gdk_quartz_image_copy_to_image() function in the GTK toolkit for Quartz is broken

    • Updated examples/gtkwaverc accel options to reflect the current state of the gtkwave main window main menu

    • Added "Open Source Definition" and "Open Source Instantiation" options that invoke .gtkwaverc variable "editor" (or $GTKWAVE_EDITOR or gedit or open -t [OSX]) on sourcecode when source stems are present in the dumpfile (currently FST only)

    • Fixed timezero in vcd2fst as it was only parsing unsigned numbers

    • Fixed Open Hierarchy crash on blank signals

    • Moved repository to GitHub

    • Added bug reporting and repository metadata

    • Added Text::WordDiff::HTMLTwoLines
