New release:

* scratchbox-devkit-doctools 1.0.8

Highlights:

* Debian packages contain an actual changelog based on
   the version control history
* Catalogs are now copied to (and accessed from) the target
* Removed *-config binaries from host side
* Fixed a number of smaller issues with several tools

Software changes:

* New
   * graphviz
   * libfreetype
   * libjpeg
* Upgraded
   * libpng
   * texinfo
   * texmf
   * tetex
   * jadetex
* Removed
   * gtk-doc

Notes:

* The gtk-doc was removed for several reasons, rationale was that
   they are mostly scripts which would have had to be modified
   somewhat extensively for supporting the host/target logic inside
   scratchbox, or copied as-is to the target. If you really need this,
   it's much easier just to build the software for your target.

* When the documentation generation is of no interest, circumventing
   build issues with autotools/gtk-doc, it's recommended to redirect
   gtk-doc scripts to /scratchbox/tools/bin/true or create a dummy
   scripts (or symlinks) for them in /host_usr/bin inside scratchbox.

* As usual, the Apophis R4 wiki page [1] contains the information
   on known issues etc.

Report bugs to scratchbox.org bugzilla.

Happy hacking,
