as pixel formats that have with different bitdepths and other data
representations, color models and component permutations.
The BibTeX reference tool. BibTex is reference
management software for formatting lists of references. The BibTeX
tool is typically used together with the LaTeX document preparation
system.
The c-ares asynchronous DNS resolver library. ARES
(Asynchronous Resolver) is a C library that performs DNS requests and

and enhanced version of the original ARES library.
The codeblocks IDE. Code::Blocks is a free C++ IDE
built to meet the most demanding needs of its users. It is designed to
be very extensible and fully configurable.
The confuse configuration file parser. libConfuse
is a configuration file parser library written in C. It's goal is to
be easy to use and quick to integrate into existing code. It supports
sections and (lists of) values (strings, integers, floats, booleans,
or other sections), as well as some other features (such as
single/double-quoted strings, environment variable expansion,
functions, and nested include statements). It makes it very easy to
add configuration file capability to a program using a simple API.
cython, a language for writing Python extension
modules. Cython is a language that makes writing C extensions for the
Python language as easy as Python itself. Cython is based on the
well-known Pyrex, but supports more cutting edge functionality and
optimizations.
esvn, a Qt-based subversion frontend.
The fcron daemon to execute scheduled tasks. Fcron
is a periodical command scheduler which aims at replacing vixie cron,
so it implements most of its functionality. It does not assume that
your system is running either all the time or regularly: you can, for
instance, tell fcron to execute tasks every x hours y minutes of
system uptime or to do a job only once in a specified interval of
time. You can also set a nice value to a job, run it depending on the
system load average, and much more.
The fsvs backup/archival tool. fsvs is a
backup/archival-tool, which uses subversion backends for storage. This
means that previous versions of all files are available in case of
hardware problems, data loss, virus infections, user problems etc.
The GEGL Pixel Transform Library. GEGL provides
infrastructure to do demand based cached non destructive image editing
on larger than RAM buffers. Through babl it provides support for a
wide range of color models and pixel storage formats for input and
output.
The genshi HTML template system. Genshi is a Python
library that provides an integrated set of components for parsing,
generating, and processing HTML, XML or other textual content for
output generation on the web.
The GGobi visualization program. GGobi is an open
source visualization program for exploring high-dimensional data. It
provides highly dynamic and interactive graphics such as tours, as
well as familiar graphics such as the scatterplot, barchart and
parallel coordinates plots. Plots are interactive and linked with
brushing and identification.
git, the distributed version control system. Git is
a popular version control system designed to handle very large
projects with speed and efficiency; it is used mainly for various open
source projects, most notably the Linux kernel.
GLPK, the GNU Linear Programming Kit. The GLPK
package is a set of routines written in ANSI C and organized in the
form of a callable library. This package is intended for solving
large-scale linear programming (LP), mixed integer linear programming
(MIP), and other related problems.
The gtkmathview GTK Widget to render MathML
Documents. GtkMathView is a C++ rendering engine for MathML documents.
It provides an interactive view that can be used for browsing and
editing MathML markup.
The libmcrypt crypto library. MCrypt is a
replacement for the old crypt() package and crypt(1)
command, with extensions. It allows developers to use a wide range of
encryption functions, without making drastic changes to their code. It
allows users to encrypt files or data streams without having to be
cryptographers.
The libnotify notification library. A library that
sends desktop notifications to a notification daemon, as defined in
the Desktop Notifications spec. These notifications can be used to
inform the user about an event or display some form of information
without getting in the user's way.
The libsexy funky fresh graphical widgets for GTK+
v2. libsexy is a collection of GTK+ widgets that extend the
functionality of such standard widgets as GtkEntry and GtkLabel by
subclassing them and working around the limitations of the widgets.
The log4cxx runtime logging framework. Log4cxx is
C++ port of Log4j (enables logging at runtime without modifying the
application binary). Log4cxx attempts to mimic log4j usage as much as
the language will allow and to be compatible with log4j configuration
and output formats.

The Lua interpreter. Lua is a programming language
originally designed for extending applications, but also frequently
used as a general-purpose, stand-alone language. It combines simple
procedural syntax (similar to Pascal) with powerful data description
constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. It is
dynamically typed, interpreted from bytecodes, and has automatic
memory management, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and
rapid prototyping.
The mhash thread-safe hash algorithms library.
Mhash is a free library which provides a uniform interface to a large
number of hash algorithms. These algorithms can be used to compute
checksums, message digests, and other signatures.
The library supports the algorithms: SHA1, SHA160, SHA192, SHA224,
SHA384, SHA512, HAVAL128, HAVAL160, HAVAL192, HAVAL224, HAVAL256,

ALDER32, CRC32, CRC32b, WHIRLPOOL, GOST, SNEFRU128, SNEFRU256.
The nagios client and server network monitoring
program. Nagios is a host and service monitor designed to inform you
of network problems before your clients, end-users or managers do. It
has been designed to run under the Linux operating system, but works
fine under most *NIX variants as well. The monitoring daemon runs
intermittent checks on hosts and services you specify using external
"plugins" which return status information to Nagios. When problems are
encountered, the daemon can send notifications out to administrative
contacts in a variety of different ways (email, instant message, SMS,
etc.). Current status information, historical logs, and reports can
all be accessed via a web browser.
notification-daemon, the server implementation of
the freedesktop.org desktop notification specification. The Desktop
Notifications framework provides a standard way of doing passive
pop-up notifications on the Linux desktop. These are designed to
notify the user of something without interrupting their work with a
dialog box that they must close. Passive popups can automatically
disappear after a short period of time. as per the Desktop

The ortacl Tcl extension providing an Oracle Call
Interface layer to Tcl. The Oratcl package is a dynamic extension of
the Tcl language that integrates Oracle OCI calls into a set of Tcl
commands that allow Oracle access via Tcl.
The pgadmin3 PostgreSQL administration GUI. pgAdmin
III is a comprehensive database design and management graphical user
interface for the PostgreSQL RDBMS.
The pgtop performance monitor for PostgreSQL. Ptop
is top clone for PostgreSQL. Similar to top, ptop allows you to
monitor PostgreSQL processes. It also allows you to: \begin{bullets}
View currently running SQL statement of a process.
View query plan of a currently running SELECT
statement.
View locks held by a process.
View user table statistics.
View user index statistics.
The phpPgAdmin PostgreSQL web administration tool.
The pychecker Python source checker.
The pylint Python source code analyzer. Pylint is a
lint-like tool for Python code. It performs almost all the
verifications that pychecker does, and additionally can perform some
stylistic verification and coding standard enforcements. The checked
code is assigned a mark based on the number and the severity of the
encountered problems. The previous mark of a given piece of code is
cached so that you can see if the code quality has improved since the
last check.
The qgit Qt-based git repository GUI. With qgit you
will be able to browse revisions history, view patch content and
changed files, graphically following different development branches of
git repositories.
The Qwt Technical Application Widgets. The Qwt
library contains GUI Components and utility classes which are
primarily useful for programs with a technical background. Beside a 2D
plot widget it provides scales, sliders, dials, compasses,
thermometers, wheels and knobs to control or display values, arrays,
or ranges of type double.
The rlwrap GNU readline wrapper. rlwrap is a
readline wrapper, a small utility that uses the GNU readline library
to allow the editing of keyboard input for any other command. It
maintains a separate input history for each command, and can
TAB-expand words using all previously seen words and/or a
user-specified file.
The rt web and email-based bug tracking and trouble
ticketing system. RT is an industrial-grade trouble ticketing system.
It lets a group of people intelligently and efficiently manage
requests submitted by a community of users. RT is used by systems
administrators, customer support staffs, NOCs, developers, and even
marketing departments to track issues, outages, bugs, requests, and
all kinds of other things at thousands of sites around the world.
SciTE SCIntilla-based Text Editor. SciTE is a
GUI-based single-document editor which uses the Scintilla editor
component. It rapidly styles most common programming languages with
good control over how syntactic elements are displayed, and features
folding for C++, C, Java, JavaScript, and Python. Styling of HTML also
styles embedded scripts written in VBScript, Javascript, or Python.
The socat bidirectional data transfer relay tool.
Socat is a relay for bidirectional data transfer between two
independent data channels. Each of these data channels may be a file,
pipe, device (terminal or modem, etc.), socket (Unix, IP4, IP6 - raw,
UDP, TCP), SSL, a client for SOCKS4, or proxy CONNECT. It supports
broadcasts and multicasts, abstract Unix sockets, Linux tun/tap, GNU
readline, and PTYs. It provides forking, logging, and dumping and
different modes for interprocess communication. Many options are
available for tuning socat and its channels. Socat can be used, for
example, as a TCP relay (one-shot or daemon), as a daemon-based
socksifier, as a shell interface to Unix sockets, as an IP6 relay, or
for redirecting TCP-oriented programs to a serial line.
The stunnel SSL/TLS tunneling tool. The stunnel
program is designed to work as SSL encryption wrapper between remote
client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. The concept is
that having non-SSL aware daemons running on your system you can
easily setup them to communicate with clients over secure SSL channel.
The sudosh2 logging shell. sudosh(1) is a
filter and can be used as a login shell. sudosh(1) takes
advantage of PTY devices in order to sit between the user's keyboard
and a program, in this case a shell. sudosh(1) was designed
specifically to be used in conjunction with sudo(1) or by
itself as a login shell. sudosh(1) allows the execution of a root
shell with logging. Every command the user types within the root shell
is logged as well as the output. The sessions later can be replayed
for reviewing purposes.
The suitesparse collection of sparse matrix
libraries.
The tre regexp matching library. Tre is an attempt
to create a lightweight, robust, and efficient fully POSIX compliant
regexp matching library. There is still some work left, but the
results so far are promising.
The xmlto front-end to an XSL toolchain. It chooses
an appropriate stylesheet for the conversion you want and applies it
using an external XSL-T processor. It also performs any necessary
post-processing.
TWW Firefox has been upgraded from the 2.0.x release
to the latest 3.0.x release. Firefox 3 is based on the Gecko 1.9 Web
rendering platform. This new platform includes more than 15,000
changes to improve performance, stability, rendering correctness, and
code simplification and sustainability. Firefox 3 is built on top of
this new platform resulting in a more secure, easier to use, more
personal product with a lot more under the hood to offer website and
Firefox add-on developers. TWW Firefox 3.0 has the following new
features:
More Secure:
One-click site info: Click the site favicon in
the location bar to see who owns the site and to check if your
connection is protected from eavesdropping. Identity verification is
prominently displayed and easier to understand. When a site uses
Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates, the site favicon button
will turn green and show the name of the company you're connected to.
Malware Protection: malware protection warns
users when they arrive at sites which are known to install viruses,
spyware, trojans or other malware.
New Web Forgery Protection page: the content of
pages suspected as web forgeries is no longer shown.
New SSL error pages: clearer and stricter error
pages are used when Firefox encounters an invalid SSL certificate.
Add-ons and Plugin version check: Firefox now
automatically checks add-on and plugin versions and will disable
older, insecure versions.
Secure add-on updates: to improve add-on update
security, add-ons that provide updates in an insecure manner will be
disabled.
Anti-virus integration: Firefox will inform
anti-virus software when downloading executables.
Vista Parental Controls: Firefox now respects the
Vista system-wide parental control setting for disabling file
downloads.
Effective top-level domain (eTLD) service better
restricts cookies and other restricted content to a single domain.
Better protection against cross-site JSON data
leaks.
Easier to Use:
Easier password management: an information bar
replaces the old password dialog so you can now save passwords after a
successful login.
Simplified add-on installation: the add-ons
whitelist has been removed making it possible to install extensions
from third-party sites in fewer clicks.
New Download Manager: the revised download
manager makes it much easier to locate downloaded files, and you can
see and search on the name of the website where a file came from. Your
active downloads and time remaining are always shown in the status bar
as your files download.
Resumable downloading: users can now resume
downloads after restarting the browser or resetting your network
connection.
Full page zoom: from the View menu and via
keyboard shortcuts, the new zooming feature lets you zoom in and out
of entire pages, scaling the layout, text and images, or optionally
only the text size. Your settings will be remembered whenever you
return to the site.
Podcasts and Videocasts can be associated with
your media playback tools.
Tab scrolling and quickmenu: tabs are easier to
locate with the new tab scrolling and tab quickmenu.
Save what you were doing: Firefox will prompt
users to save tabs on exit.
Optimized Open in Tabs behavior: opening a folder
of bookmarks in tabs now appends the new tabs rather than overwriting.
Location and Search bar size can now be
customized with a simple resizer item.
Text selection improvements: multiple text
selections can be made with Ctrl/Cmd; double-click drag selects in
"word-by-word" mode; triple-clicking selects a paragraph.
Find toolbar: the Find toolbar now opens with the
current selection.
Plugin management: users can disable individual
plugins in the Add-on Manager.
Integration with Windows: Firefox now has
improved Windows icons, and uses native user interface widgets in the
browser and in web forms.
Integration with the Mac: the new Firefox theme
makes toolbars, icons, and other user interface elements look like a
native OS X application. Firefox also uses OS X widgets and supports
Growl for notifications of completed downloads and available updates.
A combined back and forward control make it even easier to move
between web pages.
Integration with Linux: Firefox's default icons,
buttons, and menu styles now use the native GTK theme.
More Personal:
Star button: quickly add bookmarks from the
location bar with a single click; a second click lets you file and tag
them.
Tags: associate keywords with your bookmarks to
sort them by topic.
Smart Location Bar: type in all or part of the
title, tag or address of a page to see a list of matches from your
history and bookmarks; a new display makes it easier to scan through
the matching results and find that page you're looking for. Results
are returned according to their a combination of frequency, and
recency of visits to that page, ensuring that you're seeing the most
relevant matches. An adaptive learning algorithm further tunes the
results to your patterns!
Library: view, organize and search through your
bookmarks, tags and browsing history using the new Library window.
Create or restore full backups of this data whenever with a few
clicks.
Smart Bookmark Folders: quickly access your most
visited bookmarks from the toolbar, or recently bookmarked and tagged
pages from the bookmark menu. Create your own Smart Bookmark Folders
by saving a search query in the Library.
Web-based protocol handlers: web applications,
such as your favorite webmail provider, can now be used instead of
desktop applications for handling mailto: links from other sites.
Similar support is available for other protocols (Web applications
will have to first enable this by registering as handlers with
Firefox).
Download & Install Add-ons: the Add-ons Manager
(Tools > Add-ons) can now be used to download and install a Firefox
customization from the thousands of Add-ons available from our
community add-ons website. When you first open the Add-ons Manager, a
list of recommended Add-ons is shown.
Easy to use Download Actions: a new Applications
preferences pane provides a better UI for configuring handlers for
various file types and protocol schemes.
Improved Performance:
Speed: improvements to our JavaScript engine as
well as profile guided optimizations have resulted in continued
improvements in performance. Compared to Firefox 2, web applications
like Google Mail and Zoho Office run twice as fast in Firefox 3, and
the popular SunSpider test from Apple shows improvements over previous
releases.
Memory usage: Several new technologies work
together to reduce the amount of memory used by Firefox 3 over a web
browsing session. Memory cycles are broken and collected by an
automated cycle collector, a new memory allocator reduces
fragmentation, hundreds of leaks have been fixed, and caching
strategies have been tuned.
Reliability: A user's bookmarks, history,
cookies, and preferences are now stored in a transactionally secure
database format which will prevent data loss even if their system
crashes.
In previous releases, all program licenses were under
the license subdirectory of the program installation
prefix. A new element has been introduced to
the pkg-db.xml format used by pkgutils which embeds the
license text in the pkgutils XML database. The "licenses "
option is now available to the "--print " command for
pkg-info to display the license:
% pkg-info --print=licenses subversion
