the BZZ decoder algorithm in C

serially instead of replacing the last message

on the users computer to alter the download file between signature
verification and calling tar to extract the files.

installation directory. If you wish to change that, you need to
specify it in the installation command itself. Also the installer is
now downloaded securely via HTTPS from github and verifies the
signature of the installed files. Finally, it can be used to create an
isolated install, that only makes changes to files in the installation
directory and does not require root privileges.

in the main window
* Edit book: Fix editor not marking the book as modified when doing a
Replace All that does not affect any currently open files.

launching a new, short-lived worker process for every delete.

moved to recycle bin, before quitting

double backslash.

columns to change in some timezones when using the edit metadata
dialog to make unrelated changes.
o When replacing formats in a book with a very long title+authors on

field.

search bar, as we now have a separate search highlights toggle

o SONY driver: Search for books on the device in all directories not
just database/media/books. This can be turned off by customizing the

Fri Jan 14 22:15:01 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org
- reformatted complete calibre.changes file:
openSUSE:Factory requires a linewidth < 70
(refer to the dashed lines for linewidth)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 13 09:35:04 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org
- removed Require: python-django-tagging since it is no longer
needed (searched the calibre sources for "tagging" and "django")
- added packages that are only required, to BuildRequires, too,
because
Requires should always be a subset of BuildRequires. If there
are packages that are only Required
* there is no way to check whether these packages are available
in the given repositories unless you install the package (the
build environment only contains packages from the given
repositories and the project
* the project's repository might become inconsistent, because
Required packages do not block a build. So a package might get
published, although a Required package does not build
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 12 16:01:20 UTC 2011 - fsundermeyer@opensuse.org

decoding fails try to detect character encoding using
chardet. This is because most ZIP/EPUB files calibre comes
across seem to be utf-8 encoded.
