I am pleased to announce the release of qi 2.12.

Qi is a simple but well-integrated package manager.  It can create,
install, remove, and upgrade software packages.  Qi produces binary
packages using recipes, which are files containing specific instructions
to build each package from source.  Qi can manage multiple packages
under a single directory hierarchy.  This method allows to maintain a
set of packages and multiple versions of them.  This means that Qi could
be used as the main package manager or complement the existing one.

   Qi offers a friendly command line interface, a global configuration
file, a simple recipe layout to deploy software packages; also works
with binary packages in parallel, speeding up installations and packages
in production.  The format used for packages is a simplified and safer
variant of POSIX pax archive compressed in lzip format.

   Qi is a modern (POSIX-compliant) shell script released under the
terms of the GNU General Public License.  There are only two major
dependencies for the magic: graft(1) and tarlz(1), the rest is expected
to be found in any Unix-like system.

Changes in this version:

    * Version 2.12 released.

    * The option (-N/--no-rc) to override reading the configuration
      file has been fixed, previously it did not work.

    * This release introduces the ability to set the default Qi flags that
      can be passed to the compiler using --qi-cflags, --qi-cxxflags,
      --qi-ldflags, and --qi-cppflags via ./configure.

    * Manual encoding is now UTF-8.  This is for consistency with
      the new Dragora website.

    * Minor changes.

    Sources can be downloaded (via RSYNC) to your working directory by typing:
$ rsync rsync://rsync.dragora.org/dragora/current/sources/qi-2.12.tar.lz .
$ rsync rsync://rsync.dragora.org/dragora/current/sources/qi-2.12.tar.lz.sha256 
.

or fetch it from an available (HTTP) mirror
https://dragora.mirror.garr.it/current/sources/qi-2.12.tar.lz
https://dragora.mirror.garr.it/current/sources/qi-2.12.tar.lz.sha256

The sha256sum(1) user command can be used to verify the sum:
$ sha256sum -c qi-2.12.tar.lz.sha256

The SHA256 sum is:

131e3cb61ac5d4bbb41c010e7510bc36e8993db624e907ee75604c759fa9cfe6  qi-2.12.tar.lz
