| Version: 2.23 | Vendor: openSUSE |
| Release: 2.1 | Build date: Tue Feb 27 22:54:08 2024 |
| Group: Productivity/Scientific/Physics | Build host: obs-power9-11 |
| Size: 977763 | Source RPM: units-2.23-2.1.src.rpm |
| Packager: http://bugs.opensuse.org | |

| Summary: Conversion Utility | |
The 'units' program converts quantities expressed in various scales to their equivalents in other scales. Units can also convert temperature values (Fahrenheit to Celsius, for example) but this needs a slightly different input syntax. See the man page for details.

* Mon Feb 26 2024 pgajdos@suse.com
- remove dependency on /usr/bin/python3 using
%python3_fix_shebang macro, [bsc#1212476]
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.23:
* molarvolume changed to have dimensions of m^3/mol for
consistency with NIST
* Corrected erroneous definitions of moondist_min and
moondist_max
* Added atomic masses for all isotopes of all elements in
elements.units
* Added US Consumer Price index in cpi.units, which is updated
monthly by units_cur. Inflation calculations are possible with
dollars_in() or inflation_since() and other related nonlinear
units
* Made exchangerate-api the default currency server
* Adjusted US survey units to use the international foot by
default due to deprecation of the US survey foot
* abs() function works on units with dimensions, like -27 degrees.
* Support unicode operators for division and multiplication
* Ignore QUIT signal, which is sent by Ctrl-Backslash and Ctrl-4.
* Suppress repeated unit values in display of unit definitions
* Unit reductions that take more than 1000 steps now give a
"circular reference" error.
* More detailed reporting from the --check (-c) option.
* Fixed bug in positioning pointer to errors in input when the
input has leading spaces.
* Fixed parser memory leak with numbers too large or small for
type double.
* Allow multiple divisions in expressions that start with "/",
e.g. "/m/s"
* Sun Dec 25 2022 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.22:
* Fixed bug: segfault on inverse conversions of tables in verbose
mode
* Added support for ExchangeRate-API in units_cur
* Minor unit definition fixes and updates, including updates to
planetary data and a change in Rinfinity and hartree to
increase accuracy.
* Do not update currency.units at build
* Tue Jun 08 2021 pgajdos@suse.com
- require python3-requests [bsc#1186820]
* Thu Mar 11 2021 pgajdos@suse.com
- use python3 by home:lorenz
* Mon Nov 16 2020 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.21:
* Fix bug arising when some environment variables are undefined
* Improve error reporting when input files are missing or invalid
- remove obsolete texinfo macros on Factory
- make the executable position independent
* Thu Oct 01 2020 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.20:
* Add abs(), ceil(), round(), floor(), Gamma(), lnGamma(),
factorial(), erf() and erfc() functions.
* Add densities of all of the elements
* Add several new unit systems
* Add --conformable option which noninteractively prints a list
of all units conformable with a specified a specified unit
* Invoke the pager more intelligently depending on the size of the
screen
* Fix bug where unit lists conversions displayed excess precision
(e.g. non-integer output for integer input)
* Display precision warning when conversion to unit lists uses
all of the available precision
* Wed Jul 31 2019 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- units 2.19:
* Unit definitions updated to reflect new 2019 revisions to SI
and the 2018 NIST CODATA.
* Added definitions of country and USA state areas, and physical
properties of selected woods.
* Changes only to definitions.units in this release.
* Thu Oct 25 2018 astieger@suse.com
- units 2.18:
* The units_cur script now supports multiple currency sources
* Add hyperbolic functions: sinh, cosh, tanh, asinh, acosh, atanh
* Add log to arbitrary integer bases: log3, log4, log72, etc.
* Units can be redefined without a warning by adding '+' before
the unit name in definitions.units.
* Add 'quit' and 'exit' commands.
* Add support for CGS electromagnetic units (activated using the
- u option or the UNITS_SYSTEM environment variable)
* Add !prompt command to add a prefix to the "You have:" prompt
* Texts specified with !message appear in the log file
* Wed Jun 27 2018 astieger@suse.com
- units 2.17:
* Updates to units database
* Update units_cur to handle bad records returned by yahoo server
* Move currency.units out of /usr/share because the file is not
static and /usr/share is supposed to house static files.
The new location is $sharedstatedir which may be /var/lib
/usr/bin/units /usr/bin/units_cur /usr/share/doc/packages/units /usr/share/doc/packages/units/NEWS /usr/share/doc/packages/units/README /usr/share/info/units.info.gz /usr/share/licenses/units /usr/share/licenses/units/COPYING /usr/share/man/man1/units.1.gz /usr/share/units /usr/share/units/cpi.units /usr/share/units/currency.units /usr/share/units/definitions.units /usr/share/units/elements.units /usr/share/units/locale_map.txt /var/lib/units /var/lib/units/cpi.units /var/lib/units/currency.units
