gnutrition @ Savannah: GNUtrition 0.33.0rc2 Now Available

13 Maggio 2026 ore 23:40

A test release of GNUtrition, 0.33.0rc2, is now available.

GNUtrition is free nutrition analysis software written for the GNU operating system. The USDA Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies (FNDDS) is used as the source of food nutrient information.

This release makes some fixes to the gender option.  It also applies a fix to ./version.sh that affected builds from CVS checkouts, which was not an issue with the tarball, due to the tarballs including the version in a .ver file.

More information about GNUtrition may be found on its home page at http://www.gnu.or ... tware/gnutrition/.  This test release can be obtained from the alpha.gnu.org server at one of the following:


Please report any problems you experience to the GNUtrition bug reports mailing list: <bug-gnutrition@gnu.org> (https://lists.gnu ... fo/bug-gnutrition).
