2014-04-28 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* We now run against, and require, guile-2.0.
2012-02-04 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* main.scm: added search for initial files in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/cron directory, defaulting to ~/.config/cron if
the environment variable is not set) as well as in ~/.cron
directory (this is in line with the current FreeDesktop.org
standards).
2010-06-13 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* configure.ac: added --enable-no-vixie-clobber argument to
configure so that the root user can avoid overwriting a legacy
cron installation.
* mcron.1: added simple, minimal man page using help2man (the
texinfo file is still the primary documentation source).
* makefile.am: replaced use of mkinstalldirs with install; the
former is not supplied with the latest automake (1.11).
2008-02-21 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* ALL FILES: Replaced version 2 GPL notices with version 3 ones.
* makefile.am: Do not remove COPYING file with make
maintainer-clean; if you do it will eventually get replaced with
the old version 2 GPL by a subsequent automake.
* configure.ac: Bumped version to 1.0.4.
2008-01-25 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* main.scm (command-type): Files which are listed on the command
line are assumed to be guile configurations if they do not end in
.guile or .vixie (previously they were silently ignored).
* main.scm: Argument to --schedule is no longer optional (the
options system goes really screwy with optional values, usually
pulling the first non-option argument as a value if one was not
intended!)
* makefile.am: Moved target-specific CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to global
AM_* variables, to remove problem with automake requiring
AM_PROGS_CC_C_O in configure.ac (!)
* Version is currently at 1.0.3.
2005-09-02 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* makefile.am, mcron.c.template (main): Modified install-exec-hook
so that a proper installation of a Vixie-compatible cron only
takes place if we are root - otherwise only mcron is installed as
a user-owned program. The guile modules are now installed under
mcron's shared data directory, not guile's global directories.
* mcron-core.scm: Removed job:advance-time, put the code inline
where it was called, and changed the instance in the main loop to
compute the new time based on the current-time, rather than the
previous job time (this makes things behave more reasonably when a
laptop awakes from suspend mode).
* Bumped version to 1.0.2.
2004-05-15 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* Modified all auxiliary files to reflect that the package is now
properly homed at www.gnu.org.
* Bumped version to 1.0.1.
2003-12-11 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* Modified all auxiliary files to reflect that we are now a GNU
package.
* Bumped version to 1.0.0.
2003-12-07 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* configure.ac: Added switches for files and directories used by
mcron: --spool-dir, --socket-file, --allow-file, --deny-file,
--pid-file and --tmp-dir. All the code has been modified to use
these configure options (including the source for the texinfo
manual).
2003-12-05 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* configure.ac: Added test for guile version >= 1.6.4.
* bumped version to 0.99.4.
2003-08-03 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* Third cut, fully functional, modular, production quality, still
needs testing...
* Pulled all functionality into modules, so it can be incorporated
into other programs.
* Bumped version to 0.99.3.
2003-07-20 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* Second cut, now _really_ fully functional (100% Vixie
compatible), production quality code, still needs lots of testing
doing...
* Converted from SIGUP-/var/cron/update to select-/var/cron/socket
method of communication between crontab and cron.
* Added implicit job which checks every minute for updates to
/etc/crontab.
* Removed --enable-vixie configuration option - the Vixie programs
are built and installed by default now.
* Bumped version to 0.99.2.
2003-06-28 Dale Mellor <dale_mellor@users.sourceforge.net>
* First cut, fully functional, production quality code, just needs
testing...
* Broken/incomplete Guile prevents vixie compatibility from
working - this has been disabled by default in the configuration.
* Version set at 0.99.1
