Hi,
GNU gcal is a program for calculating and printing calendars.
I would like to thank Giuseppe Scrivano for maintaining GNU gcal up to
now and I am pleased to take the wheel now.
So I am happy to also announce the release of version 4.2.0 of gcal.
Besides making GNU gcal compilable with gcc15, this release is basically
a bug fix release. It contains fixes for bugs reported on the bug-gcal
mailing list and filed in the Debian BTS (Bug Tracking Sytem).
While becoming the GNU gcal maintainer on savannah went very well, it
was not possible to give me upload rights for GNU ftp server. As I am
not confident that I get access to the server in the near future, I am
publishing the new version at:
https://www.alteholz.dev/gnu/gcal-4.2.0.tar.gz
https://www.alteholz.dev/gnu/gcal-4.2.0.tar.xz
and the GPG detached signatures using the key
79DED521FD7B916F726130A6250D40F0A6A2C5C8:

Major changes in release 4.2
* New entry added for Good Friday as Czech holiday.
* New entry added for Good Friday as Hungarian holiday.
* New entry added for Three Kings Day in Poland since 2011.
* Print note in case of starting-day different from monday and
--iso-week-number is set to yes.
* No longer report Christmas day as the 26th in Idaho.
* No longer report Christmas day as the 26th in Ohio.
