+ <p>The package development team has released <tt>pkg(8)</tt> 1.4.
+ This release fixes lots of bugs and adds some new features:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Stricter checking of the path passed via the plist</li>
+ <li>Change in the ABI to be closer to MACHINE_ARCH</li>
+ <li>Add three-way merge functionnality</li>
+ <li>Add conservative upgrade support for multi repository configurations</li>
+ <li>Multirepository priority</li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>An important part of the development direction for the 1.4
+ release has been done on stabilizing the existing features, and
+ improving the <tt>pkg(8)</tt> experience on small/embedded
+ machines (reduce memory usage, speed up operations).</p>
+
+ <p><tt>pkg(8)</tt> is not only the &os; Package Manager, but the
+ Package Manager for DragonflyBSD. Additionally support has been
+ added to build <tt>pkg(8)</tt> on OS X and Linux. This work
+ will allow other Operating Systems the option of adopting
+ <tt>pkg(8)</tt> to manage their packages and bring new
+ developers into the project.</p>
