Hi

Tim Reed:  Thanks for your patch for the warning.

Kumar Padiyath:  I am not sure why it thinks you have a C++ compiler.
  You should be able to turn it off from editing config.h after you do a
  configure to "#undef HAVE_CXX"
  I added a osf check for afs in configure.  I assume Tru64 is osf?
  It will try to put stuff in order.  I did not follow what you gave
  exactly... you may have to move around -lm and some others...
  trying to do it the easiest way first.
  If you can recheck that would be helpful.  It is not clear to me... is
  it working when you get a successful compile?
 
xlockmore-5.07ALPHA14 as of 5 March 2003, the maintained version of xlock

5.07ALPHA14
* AFS fix for Tru64 thanks to <Kumar.Padiyath@psi.ch>.
+ Ability for xlock converse with PAM added by Tim Reed <treed1@twcny.rr.com>.
  Fix for random.c when BLANK_ONLY is used.
  Restart life when static or blank.  Added Thompson's Day and Night and
    Bell's High Life.  These are alternate life rules.  Day and Night
    butterfly added as a glider shooter.
    Fixed Andreen's hex life can come up in addition to Callahan's.
    Added many life forms from Life Lexicon.
    Trilife added (also randomly rotated and shooters added).
  Better fix for -rule3d and -v from Emmanuel Jeandel
    <ejeandel@ens-lyon.fr>.  I guess I went a little crazy with security
    and made it strncmp instead of strcmp.
  xlockgroup patch for allowing all in the xlock group to unlock.
    Thanks to Rich Anderson <RANDERSON@northropgrumman.com>.
  Syslog fix when gid not in /etc/group.
  life3d double buffering (also made wireframe come up a little less often)
    dead (blank) or static (period 1) life forms last just 8 generations
    Added gliders from http://www.cse.sc.edu/~bays/d4d4d4 3D applet.
  I copied a encrypted password to /etc/passwd and it worked fine without
    USE_XLOCKRC.  Put a warning in configure if /etc/passwd not set up and
    and not using USE_XLOCKRC and cygwin.
  Clean up of some text errors with BUTTON_LOGOUT and failure count.
  Added a Caps Lock check.  Don't you hate it when certain software says
    "Make sure that the Caps Lock is not accidently on." and the Caps Lock
    is not on... I thought computers can know their own state.
    added ", Caps Lock on" to invalid string.... needs French/Japanese
    translations (also needs German translation but others parts need that
    as well.
  cleaned up some various variable shadowing in modes.
  check_gl_error protection (previously it would error out... not good
    for a locker).  This could be a major security problem but I can not
    reproduce this on my Linux machine.  Someone was able to get a "texture"
    error by repeatingly pressing the middle button with glplanet up.
  text3d acts more like blank if it does not get a TTF file (blanks out
    password screen).  Fixed configure of DEF_TTFONT if prefix not set.
  Andreas Voegele <voegelas@gmx.net> pointed out -nice option was ignored...
    hopefully fixed now.  Check now for HAVE_SETPRIORITY.
  uninistall and clean on Cygwin should now work
  More Kerberos support thanks to Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>.
    support for the new krb5-config script to determine the correct
      options used to compile Kerberos
    - If you're using Kerberos, it prints your Kerberos principal in the
      username field.
    - It uses a callback function in case the library needs to prompt the
      user for any additional information (in case your password expires,
      for example).
    - It makes the writing out of credentials a configure option.
  -logoutButton minutes now in man pages.
  "configure --with-opengl --without-xpm" should now work for atlantis,
     atunnels, fire, and sballs.

 + updated since last release
