The MetaPost team is happy to announce a new release of MetaPost:
---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPost 1.004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
The sources and a win32 package can be downloaded immediately from
http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/metapost/
This release will also be available from CTAN soon, and it will be included in the next TeXLive. The source package should compile normally on all systems that are capable of compiling a modern web2c-based TeX distribution.
Hi Taco, I have two questions/problems with the new release: 1. for my linux box, I just grabbed the linux tarball, but the binaries in there still declare they're version 1.003. Is that an oversight, or are those indeed old binaries (and you forgot to pack the new ones? :-) 2. On OS X 10.5 (intel), compilation aborts with this message: creating Makefile creating doc/Makefile creating lib/Makefile creating man/Makefile creating mpware/Makefile creating mpdir/Makefile creating web2c/Makefile creating window/Makefile cat: ../../../src/texk/web2c/window/Makefile.in: No such file or directory creating fmtutil.cnf creating c-auto.h gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c -I../.. - I../../../../src/texk/web2c/.. -I.. -I../../../../src/texk/web2c/ web2c/.. -g -O2 -c ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/kps.c In file included from ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/config.h: 78, from ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/../config.h:44, from ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/web2c.h:3, from ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/kps.c:26: ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/c-std.h:57: error: syntax error before '*' token ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/c-std.h:57: error: conflicting types for 'calloc' ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/c-std.h:57: error: conflicting types for 'malloc' ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/c-std.h:57: error: conflicting types for 'realloc' /usr/include/stdlib.h:176: error: previous declaration of 'realloc' was here ../../../../src/texk/web2c/../kpathsea/c-std.h:57: warning: data definition has no type or storage class ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/kps.c: In function 'uppercasify': ../../../../src/texk/web2c/web2c/kps.c:36: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type make: *** [kps.o] Error 1 Any pointers?
