This keeps apps which need only + remote unwinding cleaner, since they logically have no dependency + on libunwind.a. +** Dont link against libatomic_ops for now. Due to a packaging bug on + Debian, linking against this library causes libunwind.so to get + a dependency on libatomic_ops.so, which is not at all what we want. + Fortunately, we don't have to link against that library on x86 or + ia64 since the library is strictly needed only for platforms with + poor atomic operation support. Once the libatomic_ops package is fixed, + we can re-enable linking against libatomic_ops. + +* News for v0.98.2: + +** Fixed bug which caused _UPT_get_dyn_info_list_addr() to sometimes fail + needlessly. Found by Todd L. Miller. + +** When using GCC to build libunwind on ia64, libunwind.so had an + unresolved reference to __divdi3. This is undesirable since it + creates an implicit dependency on libgcc. This problem has been + fixed in the 0.98.2 release by explicitly linking against libgcc.a + when building libunwind. + * News for v0.98.1: ** Fixed a bug which caused "make install" to install libunwind-common.h.in |
