New in 0.0.7
* March 29, 2000
* Added support for RedHat package building contributed by Habibie
<habibie@MailandNews.com>
* Added gdbm to SimGear. Many systems will already have gdbm installed so
it is only built if it doesn't already exist on the user's platform.
gdbm is a set of database routines that use extendible hashing and works
similar to the standard UNIX dbm routines. This guarantees the availability
of gdbm to any application that uses SimGear.
