2026-08-21: libaprutil.0-postgresql-1.6.5-1 (APRUTIL postgresql backend)
The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project is to create and
maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and consistent
interface to underlying platform-specific implementations. The primary goal
is to provide an API to which software developers may code and be assured
of predictable if not identical behaviour regardless of the platform on
which their software is built, relieving them of the need to code
special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of
platform-specific deficiencies or features.

libaprutil: v1.6.52026-08-21: svn19-1.14.5-1 (Subversion - svnserve, tools)
The goal of the Subversion project is to build a version control system that is
a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community.
Subversion's Features:
- Most current CVS features
- Directories, renames, and file meta-data are versioned
- Commits are truly atomic
- Branching and tagging are cheap (constant time) operations
- Client/server protocol sends diffs in both directions
- Time costs are proportional to change size, not data size
- Efficient handling of binary files - it uses a binary diffing algorithm to
transmit and store successive revisions
- Versioning of symbolic links
- Choice of database or plain-file repository implementations
- Apache network server option, with WebDAV/DeltaV protocol
- Standalone server option
Subversion is broken into these packages in fink:
- The "%N" package installs a stand-alone server 'svnserve19'.
Install this package if you want to maintain a stand-alone server.
It also contains the 'svn19' client and related files.
Type 'fink describe %N' to get usage help.
- The "%N-doc" package installs html documentation, and notes from the
developers of svn.
- The "libapache2-mod-svn" package contains an apache2 module to enable
serving a repository via web-dav. Type 'fink describe libapache2-mod-svn'
to get usage help.
- The "%N19-shlibs" package contains the shared libraries for the other
packages. It is installed automatically by fink when needed.
- The "%N19-dev" package contains the development headers and libraries.
It is installed automatically by fink when needed.
- The "%N-swig-pm58x" packages contains the swig perl bindings to call
svn from perl. Type 'fink describe %N-swig-pm588' to get usage help.
- The "%N-swig-py2x" packages contains the swig python bindings to call
svn from python. Type 'fink describe %N-swig-py25' to get usage help.
- The "%N-swig-rb18" package contains the swig ruby bindings to call
svn from ruby. Type 'fink describe %N-swig-rb18' to get usage help.
- The "%N-javahl" package contains the java bindings to call
svn from java. Type 'fink describe %N-javahl' to get usage help.
For More Information, check the main Subversion website below and read the book
at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/. Also check out the documentation in
%p/share/doc/%N. These files are in the "%N-doc" package.

libaprutil: v1.6.52026-08-20: swig4-4.5.0-1 (Tool that connects C, C++ programs with HLL)
SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in C,
C++, and Objective-C with a variety of high-level programming languages.
SWIG is primarily used with common scripting languages such as Perl,
Python, Tcl/Tk, Ruby, and Guile but has also been extended to include
languages such as Java and Eiffel. SWIG is most commonly used to create
high-level interpreted programming environments and as a tool
for building user interfaces.

Added types-cachetools-py to the distribution2026-08-17: postfix-mysql-2.11.0-2 (Mail transfer agent that's fast and secure)
Postfix is Wietse Venema's mailer that started life as an alternative to
the widely-used Sendmail program. Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to
administer, and secure, while at the same time being sendmail compatible
enough to not upset existing users. Thus, the outside has a sendmail-ish
flavor, but the inside is completely different.
This package provides TLS encryption and SASL authentication.
