We apologize for the calc v2.14.0.12 source tarball that was missing
critical files. While the executable was well tested, our release
process was deficient.
We are improved our release process and added tests during the release
procedure to help verify that we are not regressing in to the "v2.14.0.12
source tarball" issue, among other things.
Depending on how things do, you might is several releases come out over
a short period of time. The core of calc isn't changing, so the calc
executable will be the same as we focus on the Makefiles, our release
procedure, and related documentation / help files.
We made several changes to the Makefiles. We also added a new
README.RELEASE document (see "help release") that is a work in
progress. Along the way we discovered a few things that needed to be
updated in documentation.
See the CHANGES file for details.
Added Makefile.local, a file with a single comment. The main
Makefile includes Makefile.local just before the first all rule.
One may overtide any Makefile setting by modifying Makefile.local.
For example, Makefile.local could force BLD_TYPE:
HAVE_STRING_H:= YES
HAVE_TIMES_H:= YES
SED:= /usr/local/bin/nsed
Added ${LOC_MKF} to specify the make of the file that is
included just before the all file. So one could place
the above override lines into a different file and call
make changing the ${LOC_MKF} value. For example:
make LOC_MKF=Makefile.private clobber all chk
