[ANNOUNCEMENT] [1.7] Updated: {libiconv/libiconv2/libcharset1}-0.12-10

- Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] [1.7] Updated: {libiconv/libiconv2/libcharset1}-0.12-10
- Reply-to: cygwin at cygwin dot com
The GNU libiconv package provides an iconv() implementation, for use on
systems which don't have one, or whose implementation cannot convert
from/to Unicode.
This is the first release specific for cygwin-1.7. The only differences
between this package and the earlier libiconv-0.12-1 (released for both
cygwin-1.5 and cygwin-1.7) are (1) compiled against the cygwin-1.7 DLL
and its import library, and (2) documentation changes. There is no
corresponding "simultaneously released" version of libiconv solely for
cygwin-1.5; libiconv-0.12-1 will most likely be the final libiconv
update for the cygwin-1.5 distribution, and future libiconv development
will continue with this libiconv-0.12-10 package for cygwin-1.7 only.
COMPILER USED: gcc-3.4.4-3 and g++-3.4.4-3
Later updates MAY use gcc-4.3, but will be accompanied by DLL version
number bumps for all C dlls.
Changes (libiconv-0.12-1 ---> libiconv-0.12-10)
* Fork from cygwin-1.5 package development stream
* Updated packaging to use (cygwin-1.7-specific) cygport 0.9.2
rather than legacy cygport 0.4.x.
TESTSUITE RESULTS:
All tests pass.
