- Update to version 3.3.0:
+ New features
- A new tool ~lou_maketable~ enables the creation of tables
based on a corpus of known good Braille translations. This
has huge potential to simplify table maintenance for tables
that have so far been dominated by large exception lists.
- A new API and a corresponding command line tool to query
table meta data
+ UEB Grade 2:
- Fix back-translation of whole word contractions followed
by other contractions
+ Fix back-translation for contractions followed by
punctuation
+ Security
- Fix a number of CVEs (illegal address access, buffer
overflow and use-after-free: boo#1056105 (CVE-2017-13738),
boo#1056101 (CVE-2017-13739), boo#1056097 (CVE-2017-13740),

boo#1056090 (CVE-2017-13743), and boo#1056088
(CVE-2017-13744)
+ Braille table improvements
- Changes from version 3.2.0:
+ Bug fixes
- Fix capsnocont opcode. Also mark capital letters with
capsletter symbol when capsnocont is defined but no
begcapsword indicator is defined.
- Fix the syllable opcode. It had been broken under some
circumstances since 3.0.
+ Other changes
+ Fix building of Python bindings when cross-compiling.
- lou_checkyaml is now only installed if libyaml is available.
- Enhance documentation on usage of display tables in
particular
in conjunction with Unicode dot patterns.
+ Braille table improvements
- Changes from version 3.1.0:
+ New features:
- Most of the translation tables now contain meta data. This
makes them discoverable. Programs can use the lou_findTable
function to find a table based on a query.
- Add a noUndefinedDots mode to disable the output of dot
numbers when back-translating undefined patterns.
- When back translating input from a braille keyboard cell by
cell, it is desirable to output characters as soon as they
are produced. Similarly, when back translating contracted
braille, it is desirable to provide a "guess" to the user of
the characters they typed. To achieve this, liblouis needs to
have the ability to produce no text when indicators (which
don't produce a character by themselves) are not followed by
another cell. This works already for indicators liblouis
knows about such as capital sign, number sign, etc., but it
does not work for indicators which are not (and cannot be)
specifically defined as indicators. For example, in UEB, dots
4 5 6 alone produces the text "\456/". Setting the
noUndefinedDots mode suppresses this dot number output.
- Add a partialTrans mode to specify that back-translation
input should be treated as an incomplete word. If this mode
is set, rules that apply only for complete words or at the
end of a word will not take effect. This is intended to be
used when translating input typed on a braille keyboard to
provide a rough idea to the user of the characters they are
typing before the word is complete.
+ Bug fixes
- - Fixes implicit declaration of 'pattern_check'
- Fix a stackoverflow crash on applications with smaller stack
size.
- Fix the \v escape sequence.
- The Python bindings now give a helpful error if liblouis has
been compiled with a different character size than Python.
- Massive bug fixes in multipass rules. Dave Mielke has done a
tremendous job improving the multipass machinery also in the
context of back-translation. Where needed nofor/noback has
been added to the multipass rules.
+ Other changes
- Improvements to the Emacs mode for editing liblouis tables
- Documenting lou_charSize
+ Braille table improvements
+ License changes
- DocArch has agreed to re-license their tables, so we have 8
more tables under the LGPLv2.1+.
- Changes from version 3.0.0:
+ New features
- Numerous features to support UEB properly.
- support the many emphasis classes needed for UEB.
- support translation of numbers according to the rules of UEB.
- Capitalization is now handled just like emphasis.
- support for numeric mode
- UTF-8 support for all tools
- Add ~lou_checkTable~ and ~lou_getTypeformForEmphClass~ to
the C API and to the Python bindings
+ Bug fixes
- Stop buffer overrun in ~lou_getProgramPath~, and also free
memory after usage.
+ Other changes
- The license of the library and most of the tables has been
changed to LGPLv2.1+.
+ Braille table improvements
* Changes from version 2.6.5:
+ New features
- lou_trace supports backtranslation now.
+ Bug fixes
- Fix a bug in the findtable code.
- Fixes to the logging code
+ Other changes
- Clean up dead code i.e. remove support for (undocumented)
nobreak opcode.
+ Braille table improvements
- Use %{version} in Source
- Pass --enable-ucs4 to configure, for compatibility with python
- Build with make -j1; otherwise make is unable to resolve some
dependencies.
* Fri Feb 10 2017 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Define python_sitelib: newer versions of python-rpm-macros
overwrite it to be python2 specific (python3 macros is called
python3_sitelib).
- To be on the safe side, define __python to python2 when not
building for python3.
* Mon Jun 06 2016 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Move %install_info_delete from postun to preun.
- Drop makeinfo BuildRequires: it's quite a big dependency and
the .info file is present in the tarball.
- Install doc directly (make_install -C doc).
* Thu Apr 14 2016 mgorse@suse.com
- Update to GNOME 3.20 Fate#318572
* Tue Jan 19 2016 jengelh@inai.de
- Use %{?_smp_mflags} for parallel build, newer %make_install
for installation, and remove redundant %clean section.
* Mon Jan 11 2016 fcrozat@suse.com
- Move data from library package to separate subpackage, to ensure
library package can be safely upgraded.
* Wed Oct 21 2015 zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 2.6.4:
+ New features: YAML based harness tests. Harness tests can now
be written in simple YAML notation and they are integrated with
the normal `make check' command. They can be used for both ucs2
and ucs4 and no Python is required.
+ Bug fixes:
- Use a separate gnulib instance for the library and the tools.
Use the strndup module to avoid build problems on windows.
- Fix a problem with the nocross opcode when used in
combination with the opcodes nocont and compbrl.
- Fix a problem with the decoding of the harness test files.
- Fix numerous problems in the way braille indicators are
handled. There is now a safe version of the checkAttr
function which makes sure that no attributes are checked
beyond the boundaries of the currentInput. This fixes the
random behavior with tests where the emphasis extends to the
end of the input string.
+ Other changes:
- If found use texi2any to build the documentation.
- Fix permissions of Korean tables.
- Update the windows build instructions.
+ Braille table improvements:
- Changes from version 2.6.3:
+ New features:
- [beta] The new function lou_findTable can be used for table
discovery based on meta data in table headers.
- The Python API now has a new function to check tables aptly
named ~checkTable~.
+ Bug fixes: Fixed a problem in resolveTable when using a Java
resolver.
+ Other changes: The build dependency on makeinfo is now
optional. If it is not installed we simply do not build the
documentation.
+ Braille table improvements.
+ Corrections and improvements made to UEB tables.
- Changes from version 2.6.2:
+ New features: Harness tests now can test for typeform
differences.
+ Bug fixes: Fix for emphasis bug.
+ Braille table improvements.
- Changes from version 2.6.1:
+ New features: New Braille tables.
+ Braille table improvements.
+ Bug fixes: Fix a compiler warning in the logging code.
+ Documentation updates: The documentation has been restructured
to be more beginner friendly and a short introduction to
translation table writing has been added.
+ Other changes:
- When compiling with mingw or cygwin resulting dll is
liblouis.dll.
- runHarness.py: add new output format, compact output mode
suitable for grepping.
+ Backwards incompatible changes:
- Deleted ga.ctb now superseded by ga-g1.utb and ga.g2.ctb.
- Nl-Nl-g1.utb has been removed. It is superseded by
nl-NL-g1.ctb.
- nl-be-g1.utb has been removed. It is superseded by
nl-BE-g1.ctb.
- Changes from version 2.6.0:
+ New features:
- New Braille tables.
- Logging callback. There is now a callback system in place to
get error messages and warnings.
+ Bug fixes:
- Fix back translation problems when word gets split in unusual
places causing back translation of whole words.
- Fixed bug to prevent removal of \xffff between largesign
rules.
- Fixed a bug in back translation, when a letsign was
encountered, the letsign was being applied beyond the element
it applied to.
- Fix memory leaks in the default table resolver introduced in
the previous release.
- Fixes to the build system.
+ Braille table improvements.
- Bump soname following upstream changes, leading to rename of
package liblouis2 to liblouis9.
