<p>This document describes the changes made to the software between the
<em>previous</em> and <em>current</em> versions (see above).  If you don’t
find something listed here, then it was not done in this timeframe, or
it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.  The following
information is located here:</p>
<section id="major-changes">
<h2>Major changes<a class="headerlink" href="#major-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>All of the major changes since 3.8.0 were incorporated in
the v3.9.0beta release.  This is a stable release from a
stable maintenance branch which incorporates many bug and
security fixes needed by existing users of 3.X.X series
libraries.  Any future major changes will be in the 4.0.X
series of releases.</p></li>
</ul>
</section>
<section id="software-configuration-changes">
<h2>Software configuration changes<a class="headerlink" href="#software-configuration-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Updated autotools: Autoconf 2.64, Automake 1.11, libtool
2.2.6.</p></li>
<li><p>Enabled support for Automake silent build rules
(<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--enable-silent-rules</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">V=0</span></code>)</p></li>
<li><p>Enabled support for Automake colorized tests.</p></li>
<li><p>Added detection of a 64-bit integer type so that bundled
utilities (like <strong class="program">tiffcrop</strong>) can use it when necessary.  Note
that this version of libtiff does not require a 64-bit integer
type but libtiff 4.0 does.</p></li>

<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libtiff/Makefile.am</span></code>, <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libtiff/Makefile.v</span></code>: Do not distribute
<code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tiffconf.h</span></code>, remove <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tif_config.h</span></code>/<code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tiffconf.h</span></code> during cleaning. As
per bug <a class="reference external" href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1573">Remote Sensing bugzilla #1573 [no longer available]</a></p></li>
<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tif_dirinfo.c</span></code>: <code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">_TIFFMergeFields()</span></code> now only merges in
field definitions that are missing.  Existing definitions are
silently ignored.  (<a class="reference external" href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1585">Remote Sensing bugzilla #1585 [no longer available]</a>)</p></li>
<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tif_write.c</span></code>: Rip out the fancy logic in
<code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFAppendToStrip()</span></code> for establishing if an existing tile can
be rewritten to the same location by comparing the current
size to all the other blocks in the same directory.  This is
dangerous in many situations and can easily corrupt a file.
(observed in esoteric GDAL situation that’s hard to document).
This change involves leaving the <span class="c-expr sig sig-inline c"><span class="n">stripbytecount</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="p">]</span></span> values
unaltered till <code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFAppendToStrip()</span></code>.  Now we only write a block
back to the same location it used to be at if the new data is
the same size or smaller - otherwise we move it to the end of
file.</p></li>
<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tif_dirwrite.c</span></code>: Try to avoid writing out a full
readbuffer of tile data when writing the directory just
because we have <code class="xref c c-macro docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFF_BEENWRITING</span></code> at some point in the past.  This
was causing odd junk to be written out in a tile of data when
a single tile had an interleaving of reading and writing with
reading last.  (highlighted by gdal
<code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">autotest/gcore/tif_write.py</span></code> test 7.)</p></li>
<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tif_predict.c</span></code>: use working buffer in <code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PredictorEncodeTile()</span></code>
