| Version: 2.21 | Vendor: openSUSE |
| Release: bp154.2.26 | Build date: Mon May 9 11:08:03 2022 |
| Group: Productivity/Scientific/Physics | Build host: sheep87 |
| Size: 662828 | Source RPM: units-2.21-bp154.2.26.src.rpm |
| Packager: https://bugs.opensuse.org | |
| Url: https://www.gnu.org/software/units/ | |
| Summary: Conversion Utility | |
The 'units' program converts quantities expressed in various scales to their equivalents in other scales. Units can also convert temperature values (Fahrenheit to Celsius, for example) but this needs a slightly different input syntax. See the man page for details.

* Mon Nov 16 2020 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.21:
* Fix bug arising when some environment variables are undefined
* Improve error reporting when input files are missing or invalid
- remove obsolete texinfo macros on Factory
- make the executable position independent
* Thu Oct 01 2020 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>

* Add abs(), ceil(), round(), floor(), Gamma(), lnGamma(),
factorial(), erf() and erfc() functions.
* Add densities of all of the elements
* Add several new unit systems
* Add --conformable option which noninteractively prints a list
of all units conformable with a specified a specified unit
* Invoke the pager more intelligently depending on the size of the
screen
* Fix bug where unit lists conversions displayed excess precision
(e.g. non-integer output for integer input)
* Display precision warning when conversion to unit lists uses
all of the available precision
* Wed Jul 31 2019 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.19:
* Unit definitions updated to reflect new 2019 revisions to SI
and the 2018 NIST CODATA.
* Added definitions of country and USA state areas, and physical
properties of selected woods.
* Changes only to definitions.units in this release.
* Thu Oct 25 2018 astieger@suse.com
- units 2.18:
* The units_cur script now supports multiple currency sources
* Add hyperbolic functions: sinh, cosh, tanh, asinh, acosh, atanh
* Add log to arbitrary integer bases: log3, log4, log72, etc.
* Units can be redefined without a warning by adding '+' before
the unit name in definitions.units.
* Add 'quit' and 'exit' commands.
* Add support for CGS electromagnetic units (activated using the
- u option or the UNITS_SYSTEM environment variable)
* Add !prompt command to add a prefix to the "You have:" prompt

- units 2.17:
* Updates to units database
* Update units_cur to handle bad records returned by yahoo server

definitions.units only).
- includes changes from 2.15:
* The old timegenie service has vanished. A new units_cur script

or Python 3 and no longer depends on unidecode.
* Some currency definitions (e.g. currencies pegged to the euro)
have moved out of definitions.units into currency.units.
* Added bitcoin to currency.units
* Fixed a memory leak bug for invalid exponent operations
* Mon Apr 03 2017 astieger@suse.com
- units 2.14:
* Eliminated parser memory management limitation affecting long
input expressions (e.g. a sum of more than 100 units)
* Control characters are treated as white space rather than
producing an error about invalid UTF-8.
* Thu Jun 23 2016 astieger@suse.com
- units 2.13:
* Corrected error in heat of vaporization of water
* Fixed bug where single character unicode prefixes couldn't
combined with the second "s", so microsecond couldn't be
abbreviated.
* Fixed bug where -H '' option would write history to ~/.history.
* Added -fpic compile option so that it is possible to compile to
a library
* Thu Oct 15 2015 mpluskal@suse.com
- Update to 2.12
* Updated and revised units database, with constants now based
on 2014 CODATA.
* Readline history is persistent and is saved to
~/.units_history, or to the file specified with --history (-H)
option.
* Fixed bug where '_' didn't give last result after conversion
to function.
* Fixed sporadic segmentation fault with --log.
* Comments allowed on interactive input with '#', most useful
with logging.
* Added configure test for rl_completion_suppress_append, which
helps compilation under MacOS.
* Comment processing happens before checking UTF-8
validity---comments are allowed to contain bogus UTF-8.
* Changed units_cur to skip bogus precious metals data from
timegenie and to skip currencies with no rate.
- Cleanups spec file with spec-cleaner
- Update usage of gpg signature
