+This is the latest version of the XV jumbo patches I originally created in
+February 2000 (but never distributed) and eventually updated and released in
+May 2004, prompted by a discussion on LWN (http://lwn.net/Articles/76391/).
+Information about the patches, updates to the patches, and the patches
+themselves can all be found here:
+
+ http://pobox.com/~newt/greg_xv.html
+ http://freshmeat.net/projects/xvjumbopatches/
+
+(Use the "Subscribe to new releases" link on the latter page if you want to
+be notified of new versions automatically; trivial registration required.)
+
+These patches incorporate all of the fix- and enhancement-patches available
+from John's XV site (http://www.trilon.com/xv/downloads.html and
+ftp://ftp.trilon.com/pub/xv/patches/), plus a number of my own fixes and
+additions (security-related and otherwise), plus quite a few from other
+people. They're still not fully complete, and it's probable they never
+will be, but I do plan to continue tinkering with them whenever the mood
+strikes--and I may even release them publicly on rare occasions. (At the
+current rate, once every few years may be the best we can hope for....)
+
+Also be aware that several other people have had the same idea over the
+years. Ones I've found, more or less by accident, include:
+
+ - Landon Curt "chongo" Noll (http://www.isthe.com/chongo/)

+ - Mark Ashley <mark ibiblio.org>
+ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/packages/solaris/sparc/html/xv.3.10a.p19.html

+ - Kyoichiro Suda <sudakyo fat.coara.or.jp>
+ http://www.coara.or.jp/~sudakyo/XV_jp.html
+
+This is not an exhaustive list (e.g., Jörgen Grahn also had one). So far,
+most of the other patch-sets appear not to be as extensive or as up-to-date
+as my own, particularly now that the (very large) "Japanese extension" patches
+are incorporated--big thanks to Werner Fink of SuSE for that!
+
+Below I summarize the component patches that are encompassed by my jumbo
+bugfixes and jumbo enhancements patches, circa 2005. (As of 2007, they're
+distributed as a single monster-patch, and the "component patches" are now
+listed in the changelog section at the bottom of this file.) Unfortunately,
+some of my own additions never saw the light of day as standalone patches,
+but considering the number of overlaps (collisions) already implicit in the
+list, that would have been difficult to accomplish even if I'd had the time.
+
+Here's a quick guide to the "third-party" credits in the lists and changelog

+
+Finally, please note that these patches have not been blessed by John Bradley
+in any way (although I copied him on the May 2004 announcement and wrote to
+him again in May 2005), unless you count Debian's redistribution permission
+(Daniel Kirchheimer, 5 Dec 2005). Nor have I personally tested every change
+and feature! (See the BIG SCARY WARNING below for further caveats.) In other
+words, they're both completely unofficial and completely unguaranteed. But
+they seem to work for me. (And when they don't, I try to fix 'em--eventually,
+anyway... ;-) )

+How to build
+------------
+
+The following assumes you, the user, already have the libtiff,[1] libjpeg,[2]
+libpng,[3] zlib,[4] and JasPer[5] libraries downloaded, patched (if necessary),
+compiled, and installed, not to mention a C compiler and the bzip2,[6] tar,[7]
+patch,[8] and make[9] utilities. You should also have downloaded the original
+XV 3.10a source distribution from the XV Downloads page[10] and be able to edit
+its Makefile and config.h files as indicated in the INSTALL file. (Editing
+the Makefile will also allow you to disable some of the third-party libraries
+if you wish.) Finally, you should know what a Unix(-style) command line is,
+where to find one, and how to wield it with abandon (or at least with adult
+supervision)--and preferably not as the root user until the "make install"
+step. (A filesystem is a terrible thing to waste.)

+| |
+| BIG SCARY WARNING |
+| |
+| These patches work for Greg (and parts of them reportedly work for |
+| various other people), and so far Greg's CPU still computes and his |
+| hard disks haven't been wiped. But there's no guarantee that this |
+| will be the case for you! In particular, not every incorporated patch |
+| has been explicitly tested, nor has every possible subcase of the |
+| explicitly tested subset. (Read that again; it's grammatical.) Nor |
+| are these patches officially blessed by John Bradley in any way. In |
+| other words, if you use these patches, you do so at your own risk. |
+| (Greg doesn't believe there are any serious problems remaining, but |
+| then, what programmer ever does? Bugs happen.) |
+| |
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Assuming you have the prerequisites out of the way and aren't scared
+off by the Big Scary Warning, here's the build procedure:
+
+ tar xvzf xv-3.10a-jumbo-patches-20070520.tar.gz
+ (or: gzip -dc xv-3.10a-jumbo-patches-20070520.tar.gz | tar xvf - )
+
+ tar xvzf xv-3.10a.tar.gz
+
+ cd xv-3.10a
+
+ patch -p1 < ../xv-3.10a-jumbo-fix-enh-patch-20070520.txt
+
+ edit Makefile and config.h as directed in INSTALL file (in particular,
+ ensure paths to external libraries and header files are correct)
+
+ make
+
+ ./xv your_favorite_image your_other_favorite_image etc.
+
+If everything seems to be working to your satisfaction, go ahead and install:
+
+ make -n install (and double-check that things will be installed
+ where you want them to be)
+
+ become root if necessary (e.g., type su)
+
+ make install
+ (or: sudo make install)
+
+That wasn't so hard, was it?

+ xvpic2.c, and xvhips.c, but keep in mind that these may not be exhaustive.)
