+Version 0.15.0
+
+ * New dependency declaration features:
+
+ - Dependency groups, for example:
+
+ depends: { libboost-any libboost-log libboost-uuid } ~1.77.0
+
+
+ - Conditional dependencies, for example:
+
+ depends: libposix-getopt ^1.0.0 ? ($cxx.target.class == 'windows')
+
+
+ - Dependency alternatives, for example:
+
+ depends: libmysqlclient >= 5.0.3 | libmariadb ^10.2.2
+
+
+ - Reflected configuration variables, for example:
+
+ depends: libposix-getopt ^1.0.0 \
+ ? ($cxx.target.class == 'windows') \
+ config.hello.external_regex=true
+
+ Or:
+
+ depends: libmysqlclient >= 5.0.3 config.hello.db='mysql' | \
+ libmariadb ^10.2.2 ? config.hello.db='mariadb'
+
+
+ - Dependency configuration, for example:
+
+ depends:
+ \
+ libmariadb ^10.2.2
+ {
+ require
+ {
+ config.libmariadb.cache = true
+
+ if ($cxx.target.class != 'windows')
+ config.libmariadb.tls = true
+ }
+ }
+ \
+
+ Or:
+
+ depends:
+ \
+ libmariadb ^10.2.2
+ {
+ prefer
+ {
+ config.libmariadb.cache = true
+
+ config.libmariadb.buffer = ($config.libmariadb.buffer < 4096 \
+ ? 4096 \
+ : $config.libmariadb.buffer)
+ }
+
+ accept ($config.libmariadb.buffer >= 4096)
+ }
+ \
+
+ See the `depends` package manifest value in the manual for details.
+
+ The implementation of these features led to bpkg becoming a special build
+ system driver with repository metadata now containing the minimal subset
+ of build system files for each package (called the package build system
+ skeleton). See "Package Build System Skeleton" in the manual for details.
+
+ * Support for JSON output in the bpkg-pkg-status command.
+
+ See the --stdout-format option in bpkg-pkg-status(1) for details.
+
+ * New --all, --all-pattern bpkg-pkg-drop options.
+
+ These options can be used to drop all the held packages (in case of
+ --all-pattern, limited to those that match a wildcard pattern).
+
+ * New --keep-tmp common option.
+
+ This option instructs bpkg not to remove its temporary directory at the
+ end of the command execution and print its path if the verbosity level is
+ 2 or higher. This option is primarily useful for troubleshooting.
+
Version 0.14.0
* Support for configuration types, configuration linking, and build-time
