+
+ Disable globbing of command line arguments.

+ failure, rather than only the path relative to $APPROOT.
+
+2012-02-20 Keith Marshall <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Propagate sysroot path settings to scripts via the environment.
+
+ * src/pkgbase.h (PKG_PUTENV_FLAGS_MASK): New constant; it maps...
+ (PKG_PUTENV_DIRSEP_MSW, PKG_PUTENV_DIRSEP_POSIX): ...these flags...

+ on completion, or when not required due to pre-existing local copy.
+
+ * src/climain.cpp (pkgActionItem::GetSourceArchive): Must always be
+ prepared to download the associated archive; enable ACTION_DOWNLOAD.
+
+ * src/pkgexec.cpp (pkgActionItem::Schedule) [OPTION_REINSTALL]:
+ May need to download the archive, even when the requested package was
+ previously installed; schedule ACTION_DOWNLOAD to enable this.
+
+ * src/pkgdeps.cpp (promote): Macro redefined in terms of...
+ (with_flags, with_download): ...these new macros; implement and...
+ (pkgXmlDocument::ResolveDependencies): ...use them to enable/schedule
+ ACTION_DOWNLOAD only when expected that it may be necessary.
+
+2011-11-06 Keith Marshall <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Fix packaging anomalies for source and licence distributions.
+
+ * Makefile.in (licdist): Link README from ${CURDIR}, not from '..'.

+2011-11-06 Keith Marshall <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Bump version number for subsequent CVS snapshots.
+

+
+2011-10-11 Keith Marshall <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Fix --download-only vs. --reinstall conflict.
+
+ * src/pkgexec.cpp (pkgActionItem::Execute) [OPTION_DOWNLOAD_ONLY]:
+ Test for explicit inequality, rather than equality to zero; since the

+ add category selector argument to support source/licence choice.
+
+2011-10-02 Keith Marshall <keithmarshall@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Facilitate downloads using diverse cache directories.

+ method; declare it; it handles the download for a single named archive
+ file, and stores it in a specifed cache directory.
+
+ * src/pkginet.cpp (pkgActionItem::DownloadSingleArchive): Implement

+ specified packages, as listed on the command line, to primary status.
+ (pkgActionItem::Execute): Repeatedly invoke...
+ (pkgActionItem::SetAuthorities): ...this; incorporate call of...

+ (clean): ...for removal by this.
+
+ * src/clistub.c (Copyright): Add new year.
+ (main): Amend error message, if gui$EXEEXT doesn't start; make it
+ more intelligible to normal users.
