[upstream changes]
Release 2.3.1:
By John A. Magliacane <kd2bd@amsat.org> (05-Aug-2023):
* Fixed a bug that caused the "Upcoming Passes" list in Multi-Satellite
tracking mode to occasionally produce erroneous results if one or
more satellites in the database had decayed from orbit.
* The Vocalizer feature was modified to prevent it from being executed
by a user keyboard command until after the current speech announcement
has terminated.
* The earthtrack compilation script was modified to prevent the
"undefined reference" errors some users experienced during the
linking phase of the compilation process.
* All references to www.celestrak.com in the "kepupdate" script have
been changed to celestrak.org due to the site's name change.
* Several other small coding changes were made.

[db changes]
- Upstream does not come with a proper build infrastructure hence
build is done in our port Makefile now instead of copied Makefile.
- portlint and portfmt ran clearly as did poudriere.
- Added earthtrack, kepupdate and moontracker binaries
but did not add gsat which should be a separate port IMO

Release 2.2.7:
By John A. Magliacane <kd2bd@amsat.org> (12-Oct-2020):
* Fixed the vocalizer build script to use bash rather than
the default system shell (which could be something else entirely).
* Vocalizer now uses improved (faster and royality-free) speech
samples generated through https://ttsmp3.com/
* Improved the keyboard handling to permit cursor and function
keys to be depressed without causing undesired program behavior.
* Modified the degree symbol displayed after the Eclipse Depth angle
in Single Tracking Mode for better consistancy across a wider range
of terminals.
* Since ISS visibility doesn't require a very dark sky, the sun angle
visibility threshold for the ISS was lowered from -12.0 degrees
(Nautical Twilight) to -8.0 degrees (between Nautical and Civil
Twilight).
* Several additional display changes were made for improved operation
under Android platforms.
* The kepupdate script is now installed by default.

Release 2.2.6:
By John A. Magliacane <kd2bd@amsat.org> (20-May-2020):
* The installer program has been replaced by a bash script that
configures, compiles, and installs PREDICT and several companion
client utility applications.
* The SingleTrack and MultiTrack displays have been modified for
more consistent performance across a wider range of terminals.
* PREDICT's "vocalizer" now employs the Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture (ALSA) environment instead of OSS in response
to recent changes in v5.6 and later Linux kernels.
* The handling of geosynchronous and geostationary satellites
has been improved, but still needs to be used with caution.
* 100 MHz normalized downlink Doppler shift information has been
added to all -p and -f command-line outputs.
* The documentation and the transponder database file have been
updated, and the format of the man page has been corrected.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 2.2.5:
By John A. Magliacane <kd2bd@amsat.org> (05-May-2018):
* Fixed coding bugs identified by GCC v8.1.0.
* Re-arranged GCC arguments in installer.c for better
compatibility with more recent versions of GCC.
* Added a -dp command-line option to PREDICT to
provide quick Doppler shift estimates in CSV format.
(Thanks Joeal Subash)
* Updated the documentation to reflect the changes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 2.2.4:
By John A. Magliacane <kd2bd@amsat.org> (12-Mar-2018):
* Fixed a bug affecting the -f switch that sometimes caused
a failure to return proper output. (Tnx: Andrej Lajovic)
* Fixed a bug in installer.c that sometimes caused a failure
to properly install PREDICT's executable into /usr/local/bin
by default.
* Added <errno.h> header to gsat-1.1.0/src/callbacks.c
