libs with PSPICE syntax, old apps like ngnutmeg are made only
upon user reqest, new commands 'mc_source' and 'alterparam',
instance parameters may be added to the .model line, new
variable 'sim_status', ngspice shared library supports XSPICE
digital event data over its interface, pkg-config added .

* Sun May 06 2018 stefan.bruens@rwth-aachen.de
- Removed shared library header from non-shared devel package
* Tue Dec 05 2017 eich@suse.com
- Build shared library version of ngspice using the multibuild
feature.
Building the shared library version of ngspice requires a separate
build which doesn't build the binaries and doesn't allow to build
with the X Window System UI.
Also it requires the package to be split in several sub-packages:
* a package containing most of the ngspice binaries.
* a package containing the shared library and a development
package for applications using the ngspice API.
* a code model package for Xspice and a development package
for code models.
* a scripts package
- Added -fpie and -pie to CFLAGS to ensure position independent
executables.
