distcc 2.8 is out. Thankyou to the many people who sent suggestions,
patches, success or problem reports.
distcc-2.8 "Play in the traffic" 2003-07-09
FEATURES:
* Small enhancements to GNOME monitor appearance.
BUG FIXES:
* Fix problem with nonblocking IO for SSH connections that causes
a busy spin. SSH connections are now far more efficient.
Reported by Marcelo Matus.
* distccmon-text flushes output after each line, even if stdout is
not a terminal. This allows it to more easily be run in polling
mode under another program. Suggestion from Hamish Rodda.
* distccd now works properly with SSH servers that use pipes
rather than socketpairs to run the daemon. Previously it would
fail with an error when trying to write to stdin. Suggestion
from Felix Lee.
* Correctly handle invocations like "gcc -ofoo.o -c foo.c", where
the output filename is run on to the -o option. Based on a
patch from Tsutomu Yasuda.
INTERNAL:
* mon.h is now safe for inclusion in C++ programs, and protected
against multiple inclusion. Suggestion from Frédérick Forjan.
* Increased timeout for nonblocking network IO apart from
connections to 5 minutes.
PORTABILITY:
* Detect and avoid Apple gcc cpp-precomp brokenness. Patch from
Matt Watson.
* Better handling of builds on machines which do not have the
linuxdoc-sgml toolchain. Suggestion from Frerich Raabe.
DOCUMENTATION:
* Include an example xinetd configuration file from Andrew Morton.
