> Overview of Changes in GAIL 1.4.1
> =================================
> * Set role for accessible object for GtkMessageDialog to
ATK_ROLE_ALERT
> (bug #122551)
>
* Apply build fixes for Darwin (bug #1243343) [Jerry Talkington]
>
* Correct text length reported in text-changed signals emitted when
> label changes (bug #123696)
>
* Avoid emitting focus notification for out-of-process GtkSocket (bug
#120991)
>
* Fix documentation build (bug #123876) [Malcolm Tredennick]
>
* Report children of menu item correctly when menu item has a submenu
> whose menu items are created only when menu is shown (bug #120303)
>
* Report label change only if toplevel window is showing. (bug #123470)
>
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> gcalctool (4.3.3 -> 4.3.16)
>
> * Fixed bug 124377. Fixed rounding errors when the radix character for
a
> locale isn't ".".
> * Online help updated for various recent (small) changes.
>
> * Fixed bug 124172. The "+" character on a German keyboard is on the
> lower level of a key (i.e. the Shift key doesn't need to be down).
Added
> another mask/keysym pair to the "+" entry to handle this.
>
> * Fixed bug 120737. Changed the accessible text for the OR button from
> "Logical OR" to "logical OR" so that it's not changed by FreeTTS's
>
> * Fixed bug #123948. Removed the GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED flag from
> .../gcalctool/gcalctool/Makefile.am, to allow the depreciated
> GtkItemFactory, to successfully build.
>
> * Fixed bug 123724. Hitting Esc now does the same as hitting
> Control-Backspace; i.e. the CE (clear entry) functionality.
> * Updated the gcalctool man pages to reflect this change, and the
> changes for bug #118826.
>
> * Refixed bug 122373. gcalctool now uses nl_langinfo() to get the
> numeric point for the users locale, rather than via a localised
string.
>
> * Fixed enhancement #65806. Changed that label for e^x (e superscript
x)
> to use an italised "e".
>
> * Fixed bug 118826. The keyboard shortcuts for the six hex. digits are
> now "A" to "F". The functions that previously used those letters
have
> been reassigned to their lowercase equivalents.
>
> * Fixed bug 122408. The tooltips for the numeric buttons (0-9) have
been
> removed as they are redundant.
>
> * Fixed bug 120749. When gcalctool is displaying a menu, typing
Alt+Tab
> can no longer switch windows.
>
> * Fixed bug 120745 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120745)
> Accessible names have now been added to each of the widgets in the
> mode panel when in Scientific mode.
>
> * Fixed bug 122373. The decimal separator is now a translatable string
> so that other locales that don't use a period can adjust accordingly.
>
> * Fixed bug 120605. Gcalctool debug messages are no longer
translatable
> strings.

> 2.4.4.5 stuff:
>
> - Brown paper security bag: ~/.Xauthority could be left readable
> after logout
>
> - gecos info (face browser user name) didn't get through if non-utf8
> (Frederic Crozat) (fixes mandrake #5309)

> Ales Nyakhaychyk, Asmund Skjaeveland, Gustavo Maciel Dias Vieira,
> Augusta Marques da Silva, Richard Allen)
>
> 2.4.4.4 stuff:
>
> - SECURITY: Fixed CAN-2003-0793, a local DoS, the socket connection
> is now non-blocking and limitted to the number of commands
>
> - SECURITY: Fixed CAN-2003-0794, a local DoS, the line length is
limited
> to 4096 bytes (note, this was not a buffer overrun).
>
> (Thanks to Jarno Gassenbauer for pointing out the above two
problems)
>
> - Avoid possible DoS by using "-audit 0" for the X server command line
>
- When cookies are in the fallback dir touch them every
> 12 hours to avoid tmpwatch from removing them
>
- Add config key NeverPlaceCookiesOnNFS to allow
> cookie files on NFS or similar filesystems
>
- Graphical greeter now graphically complains if it can't
> load a theme rather then plainly failing.
>
- Go shell quoting crazy (fixes among others rh #105858,
> but none of the issues were actually security problems,
> "annoying" on really weird configs at most)
>
- Some more anality with touching user owned files
>
- Fixed the graphical greeter line breaking to not upset
> pango and generally work with marked up strings
>
- Fix an underlining bug in the graphical greeter when the
underlined letter is the last letter. (discussed in rh #106189)
>
- Minor other fixes (among others #123958, #124680)
>
2.4.4.3 stuff:
>
- The graphical greeter now wraps text correctly (and
> all text). Plus you can insert \n in the welcome text
> now too (it worked for gdmlogin before) Fixes #123017
>
- The entry type in the graphical greeter listens to
> font and color from the normal state (it only has
> the normal state) (Anton Altaparmakov, me)
>
- Tweak fontsizes in the default themes to be smaller. For
> some reason they very suddenly very huge.
>
- Further memory savings in the graphical greeter (though
> it may be offset by the new wrapping code which is quite
> large :)
>
- Another security audit, but no new security holes found,
> on the other hand lots of code changed to being
> super-anal (which is never bad in something running as
> root)
>
- Lots of random fixes again
>
2.4.4.2 stuff:
>
- Fix the session setup to be both back-compatible and
> fully KDM (kde 3.2) compatible, among others:
> - SessionDesktopDir is now a path
> - Change 'Default' to 'default'
> - Honour TryExec correctly
> - Other then 'default', the gnome and CDE sessions are
> now installed in /usr/share/xsessions (if prefix==/usr)
>
- Support SELinux
>
- Fix the 'switchdesk' mode and mention 'switchdesk'
> only if it's actually installed (rh #104287)
>
- Use the a11y modules for the chooser as well as the
> error dialogs
>
- Lots of dwellmouselistener and keymouselistener a11y
> modules fixing, as in they actually work now,
> among other fixes are #122944, #122658, #122616
>
- Default gestures for gok (David Bolter, me)
>
- Lots of small fixes
>
- Error dialogs are now crashing theme/module tolerant
>
- Load ~/.face.icon for kde 3.2 interoperability
>
- Clean up the random stuff again a bit (we get more entropy
> for less work, yay!)
>
- Documentation updates
>
- Translation updates (Alessio Frusciante, Francesco Marletta,
> Changwoo Ryu)
>
2.4.4.1 stuff:
>
- Update the manual a bit
>
> - Some internal cleanup
>
- Be ultra anal with creating the user protocol socket
>
- Don't fall back to 'nobody' if the gdm user is not found
> (that is a horrible behaviour)
>
- Support and write KDM style .dmrc (KDM will use this in
> the next version). Still KDM will use /etc/X11/sessions,
> and we're using /etc/X11/dm/Sessions, oh well, life can't
> be perfect, next time ...
