where shared libraries are in /lib and almost everything is linked
shared. First, they removed the old shared library before installing
the new one. Second, they attemped a cross-device link from /lib
to /usr/lib/compat.
to the same version numbers as 2.2.x.
The problem with the way things were was:
- if you took a 2.2.x binary, it either wouldn't run on -current or
if you had the old -current version of libtermcap.so.2.1 then it could
potentially be a security problem.
- the alternative is to start a compat22 tree dist for -current with a
uuencoded binary. This makefile hack is less cost.
libtermcap.so.3.0 is provided via /usr/lib/compat to avoid transition
problems.
specified in the top level Makefiles.
Previously I missed dozens of Makefiles that skip the install after
using `cmp -s' to decide that the install isn't necessary.
variable directly in tgetent by stderr or stdout output speed.
It helps hide in non-standard __set_ospeed function and remove it
from other sources (coming soon).
Do prototype cleanup too.
Basically all termios+termcap pgms needs it.
It set ospeed variable using nearest-matched stty speeds,
which helps termcap pgms works with non-fixed termios speeds
and not duplicate ospeed switch into every pgm.
Also it isn't standard function, its source code is too big to include it
in whole to every termcap+termios pgm.
Change the reference for the libtermcap libtermlib link from SHLIBDIR
to LIBDIR. SHLIBDIR is undefined in the standard case.
termcap.c:
Initialize a local variable to zero. Otherwise an erroneous free call
can happen and clobber the calling program.
Seen with vi and gdb. If you have TERMCAP set with a terminal entry and
set TERM with something like huhu, vi and gdb core dumps.
