Change Logs

* Fri Jun 06 2025 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 10.2.0:
  * Improvements and fixes:
  - tensorprod: Fix error for certain tensor/vector combinations
    (bug #66950).
  - mkoctfile: Skip compiling object file with soversion for
  - -mex -c -o (bug #66972).
  - Fix segmentation fault in octave-svgconvert when called with
    no inputs.
  - mkoctfile: Remove temporary C source files after
    compilation.
  - unicode2native: Fix conversion of short strings to UTF-16 or
    UTF-32.
  - Detect leading and trailing comments for all parse tree
    elements (bug #67004).
  - bar: Avoid listener error when replacing an existing bar
    plot (bug #67006).
  - Fix sparse matrix assignment with reverse range indexing
    (bug #66516).
  - ezplot: Enable polar and 2-D plots of constant functions
    (bug #66563).
  - Check for any kind of file not just regular files (bug
    [#67018]).
  - var/std: Issue an error for non-floating point inputs.
    Previous versions accepted integer type inputs but could
    produce erroneous outputs due to integer arithmetic and
    under/overflow errors (bug #67016).
  - annotation: Change "verticalalignment" default value (bug
    [#67033]).
  - Previously, symbols that are not actually callable by a user
    might have been added to the list of callable functions when
    loading .mex files. Remove these symbols from that list.
    This fixes unloading .mex files with clear.
  - Remove break points only from user functions (defined in .m
    file). This fixes an infinite recursion issue when
    re-loading updated .oct or .mex files.
  - For improved Matlab compatibility the strncmp and strncmpi
    functions now return true if the number of characters
    specified by N is equal to 0 (bug #57879).
  - Fix nargout in multi-output indexing expressions beginning
    with function call (bug #67096).
  - findobj: Do not match empty tags with [] (bug #67048).
  - Check for undefined output when indexing function output
    (bug #67111).
  - perms: Fix buffer overflow and crash; minor code cleanup
    (bug #67115).
  - mkoctfile: Support spaces in output path of linker step.
  - mkoctfile: Support spaces in path to binary when stripping
    debug info.
  - octave-svgconvert: Speed up printing to PDF (bug #66959).
  - error: Fix segmentation fault on missing fields in err.stack
    structure (bug #67143).
  - Avoid parse error for empty lines in debug mode (bug
    [#67108]).
  - Check if effective SOVERSION is exported from .mex file
    libraries (bug #67163).
  * GUI:
  - Fix build error without QScintilla installed (bug #66962).
  - Avoid potential integer overflow on Windows.
  - Make dialogs shown by inputdlg, listdlg, questdlg, uigetdir,
    or uigetfile modal.
  * Build system / Tests:
  - Add visibility attributes for the octave::base_fcn_handle
    class.
  - Add visibility attributes to parse tree symbols (bug
    [#67056]).
  - Add visibility attributes to Array<T> template class member
    functions.
  - Use correct preprocessor macro when instantiating MArray
    template class.
  - Disable visibility flags by default.
  - Support passing additional flags when linking octave*
    executables.
  - Single-quote path that might contain unescaped backslashes
    in the generation of the doc cache.
  - Ignore deprecation warning for std::wbuffer_convert in
    header.
  - error: Add more built-in self-tests.
- Re-base octave_tools_pie.patch for update.
* Tue May 20 2025 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Add octave-reproducible-jar.patch: Set jar date to source
  modification date-time for reproducible builds (bug #67140).
- Build with GCC 8 for Leap <= 15.6 for c++17 <filesystem>
  support; this fixes build failures on 15.6 and older Leap.
- tests: Set Xvfb screen colour depth to 16, which seems the
  minimum required for `image/getframe.m` test to not segfault
  (bug #65866).
- Call ldconfig_scriptlets on cli package instead of main package.
- Drop use of deprecated install_info post(un) scriptlets.
* Mon May 12 2025 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 10.1.0:
  * Too many changes to list, see
    <https://octave.org/NEWS-10.html>.
- Re-base octave_tools_pie.patch for update.
- Bump apiver to 60 in keeping with upstream.
* Wed Mar 19 2025 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>

- Update to version 9.2.0:
  * Improvements and fixes:
  - hist.m: Add input validation for Y restricting it to 2-D
    array (bug #65478). Avoid error when Y value range is very
    small (bug #65714).
  - cross.m: Add input validation for dim restricting it to a
    numeric integer valued scalar (bug #65544, bug #65527).
  - getframe.m: Respect pixel ratio (high DPI) of screen with
    figure (bug #65540).
  - legend.m: Fix error if root property "showhiddenhandles" is
    "on" (bug #65442)
  - savepath.m: Correctly handle packages without binaries (bug
    [#65559]).
  - Correctly scale figure position on screen with DPI scaling
    (high DPI).
  - profile ('on') now clears any existing profile data as the
    documentation states (bug #65595).
  - Fix segmentation fault when trying to set breakpoint in
    non-existent method of classdef class (bug #65610).
  - Improve default display of classdef properties (bug #62432).
  - Avoid crash with Qt6 6.7.0 (bug #65605).
  - bar.m: Catch input number validation error.

    equals Inf (bug #65712).
  - legend.m: Avoid setting more colors than coordinates for
    patch objects (bug #65632).
  - inputParser.m: Allow default classdef objects which overload
    struct (bug #65667).
  - Preserve "position" property of figure when object is
    reset() (bug #65750).

    [#65714]).

  * GUI:
  - Use first word for options in right-click menu of command
    window widget (bug #65518).
  - Set DontUseNativeDialog flag as first property in
    QFileDialog.
  - Explicitly raise non-modal message boxes ensuring
    visibility.
  - Save and restore splitter state of documentation widget.

    (bug #65030).
  - File dialogs of the built-in editor are now modal.
  - Fix dragging editor from main window into floating state
    (bug #65725).
  * Build system / Tests:
  - Avoid overriding save_* variables from outer scope (bug
    [#65476]). This fixes an error that might have lead to
    overlinking of shared libraries (e.g., .oct files). Consider
    rebuilding shared libraries that have been built with Octave
    9.1.0.
  - Add BIST for is_valid_file_id.m (bug #65543).
  - Update metainfo.xml with new fields for AppStream 1.0 (bug
    [#65355]).
  - Show result of check for std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator in
    configure summary.
  - Run test program for polymorphic allocators if possible
    instead of a simple build check.
  - Speed up BIST for the central part of convn with 'full'
    shape.
  - Require Qt Widgets module when building the GUI (bug
    [#65625]).
  - bug-53027.tst: Delete temporary file after test is done (bug
    [#53027]).
  - Avoid build error with GCC 14 when targeting Windows.
  - Try to clean up after BIST also in case test failed (bug
    [#53027]).
  - bar.m, barh.m: Add plotting BISTs (bug #65671).
  - Check if C and Fortran compilers accept -fexceptions flag
    (bug #65767). This affects building Octave itself from
    sources and also how .mex or .oct files are built by mex and
    mkoctfile.
  * Documentation updates.
- Changes from version 9.1.0:
  * Long list, see <https://octave.org/NEWS-9.html>
- Switch to Qt6 library for GUI.
- Tests: Need to pass `RUN_OCTAVE_OPTIONS="--no-gui-libs"` as a
  temporary work around to
  <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?65866>

  `native_graphics`; it is needed for tests.

  * Ensure that new test for saving sparse matrices writes a text
    file.
  * Search for tests in and install octave-value template sources
    (bug #64696).
