[ANNOUNCEMENT] New: proj-4.4.8-1 libproj-devel-4.4.8-1 libproj0-4.4.8-1

[Charles Wilson <cygwin at cwilson dot fastmail dot fm>]

The PROJ Cartographic Projections library (and utilities) originally 
written by Gerald Evenden then of the USGS.  It is used by libgeotiff, 
among other things, for manipulating map and coordinate system data.

Note that in order to link against this library, you will need to use
    -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc
(and -lproj of course).

The main package includes the following utility executables

   proj.exe
   invproj.exe
	forware and inverse cartographic projection
   geod.exe
   invgeod.exe
	direct and inverse geodesic computations
   cs2cs.exe
	cartographic coordinate system conversions
   nad2bin.exe
   nad2nad.exe
	for converting data between North American Datum 1927 and 1983
	and for creating binary (as opposed to plaintext) databases

High resolution US and Canadian datum shift grids are included in 
/usr/share/proj/
