2026-06-20: graphicsmagick-1.3.47-1 (Swiss army knife of image processing)GraphicsMagick is the swiss army knife of image processing. Comprised of 337K lines of C and C++ code, it provides a robust and efficient collection of tools and libraries which support reading, writing, and manipulating an image in over 88 major formats including important formats like DPX, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PNG, PDF, PNM, and TIFF. GraphicsMagick supports huge images on systems that support large files, and has been tested with gigapixel-size images. GraphicsMagick can create new images on the fly, making it suitable for building dynamic Web applications. GraphicsMagick may be used to resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image and save the result in the same or differing image format. Image processing operations are available from the command line, as well as through C, C++, Perl, Tcl, Ruby, or Windows COM programming interfaces. With some modification, language extensions for ImageMagick may be used. GraphicsMagick is originally derived from ImageMagick 5.5.2 but has been completely independent of the ImageMagick project since then. Since the fork from ImageMagick in 2002, many improvements have been made (see news) by many authors using an open development model but without breaking the API or utilities operation. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): graphicsmagick: new version2026-06-20: graphicsmagick-q32-1.3.47-1 (Swiss army knife of image processing)

This package is built --with-quantum-depth=32. It will be slower and use twice as much memory as "graphicsmagick" which is built --with-quantum-depth=16. The higher bit-depth should only be needed for scientific applications needing the highest accuracy. Quantum 16 is fine for most uses and is the most optimized. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): graphicsmagick: new version2026-06-19: mysql-unified-5.0.96-7 (Open Source SQL database)
Open Source SQL database commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): mysql: fix some errors in newer compilers and CPUs (note, still FTBFS on arm/tahoe)2026-06-19: libmaxminddb-1.13.3-1 (C library for the MaxMind DB file format)
The libmaxminddb library provides a C library for reading MaxMind DB files, including the GeoIP2 databases from MaxMind. This is a custom binary format designed to facilitate fast lookups of IP addresses while allowing for great flexibility in the type of data associated with an address. The MaxMind DB format is an open format. The spec is available at http://maxmind.github.io/MaxMind-DB/. This spec is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. See http://dev.maxmind.com/ for more details about MaxMind's GeoIP2 products. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): libmaxminddb: new version2026-06-19: lcms2-2.19-1 (Free color management engine in 100K)
Little cms intends to be a small-footprint, speed optimized color management engine in open source form. Since the initial release, back in 1998, lcms has been continuously evolving, mostly thanks to contributions done by skilled programmers, who generously donated their valuable time to review the engine and the documentation. For now, little cms has been ported to a big number of platforms and is currently used in many open source and commercial products, as well as being distributed in major linux enviroments. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): lcms2: new version2026-06-18: bwidget-1.10.1-2 (High-level widget set for Tcl/Tk)
The BWidget Toolkit is a high-level Widget Set for Tcl/Tk built using native Tcl/Tk 8.x namespaces. The BWidgets have a professional look&feel as in other well known Toolkits (Tix or Incr Widgets), but the concept is radically different because everything is pure Tcl/Tk. No platform dependencies, and no compiling required. The code is 100% Pure Tcl/Tk. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): bwidget: fix file permissions2026-06-17: vim-nox-9.2.670-1 (Improved version of the editor "vi")
VIM adds many of the features that you would expect in an editor: Unlimited undo, syntax coloring, split windows, visual selection, graphical user interface (read: menus, mouse control, scrollbars, text selection), and much much more. commit log from Hisashi T Fujinaka ([email protected]): Vim: Welcome to Vim-9.2.670.2026-06-17: vim-9.2.670-1 (Improved version of the editor "vi")
