Notes for update 1 of the 5th ACK distribution:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a complete distribution, but does not deserve a new version number,
|
|
|
|
|
as the only addition is the support for Solaris 2 on SPARCs. It also contains
|
|
|
|
|
many bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
We refer to this version as 5.1.
