Summary: bc-6.2.5bc-6.2.6

Now version 6.2.6.

comment:2 by Xi Ruoyao, 21 months ago

6.2.6:

This is a production release that fixes an install bug that affected locale installation of all locales when using mksh. Users do *NOT* need to upgrade if they don't use mksh and/or don't need to install all locales.

6.2.5:

This is a production release that fixes a test bug that affected Android and mksh. Users do *NOT* need to upgrade unless they use mksh or another affected shell and need to run the test suite.

Frankly I have no idea what a mksh is.

Summary: bc-6.3.1bc-6.4.0

Now version 6.4.0.

## 6.4.0

This is a production release that fixes a read()/? bug and adds features to bcl.

The bug was that multiple read calls could repeat old data.

The new features in bcl are functions to preserve BclNumber arguments and not free them.

*WARNING for bcl Users*: The bcl_rand_seedWithNum() function used to not consume its arguments. Now it does. This change could have made this version 7.0.0, but I'm 99.9% confident that there are no bcl users, or if there are, they probably don't use the PRNG. So I took a risk and didn't update the major version.

bcl now includes more capacity to check for invalid numbers when built to run under Valgrind.
