138 extension, other tools are also introduced to work with gotd, and they are:
144 For more information about gotd, see gotd(8), as well as the above command man
145 pages where necessary. Note that gotd's portable implementation uses chroot()
146 to ensure some separation; this still requires the main gotd binary to run as
149 To enable gotd and the corresponding other tools which work with it, you must
150 pass the '--enable-gotd' ./configure flag.
152 Further installation instructions can be found in the README.portable file in

192 * Changes from got-0.85.
194 There's been a tonne of -portable-specific changes in this release which aim
195 to make portability easier across the supported systems. In particular,
196 there's been a lot of header cleanups, and now that -portable is using
197 config.h, this has allowed dependencies to be split out, so that ncurses is
198 only linked where required (tog). This should allow for multipacking where
201 There have also been some great improvements to regress (which is the test
202 suite) to remove GNU-specific wrappers for date(1), sed(1), ln(1).
204 There's too many commits to list here, but for the specifics, see the
205 differences between '0.84.1..0.85'.
207 Thanks in particular to Christian "naddy" Weisgerber for his help with this
208 work, and this -portable release.

258 This is a bug-fix -portable release to address the following:
260 * portable: macos: look for GNU Bison in more places, based on whether brew or
261 MacPorts is in use, and failing to find Bison that way, look in a few
262 hard-coded but likely locations.
