Gerbv release 2.3.0 introduces mostly major bug fixes:
* Fixed a minor arc rendering bug in fast mode.
* Make the svg/pdf/ps export use a 1:1 scale instead of scaling to fit
the page.
* Always require cairo now since we make use of some of the transformation
functions even when using gdk rendering.
* Fix a bug in the vertical scrollbar calculations.
* Fix a bug where apertures < 10 were potentially ignored in
some drill files.
* Fix clipping bug when viewing files with image offsets.
* Fix a bug where clicking on the message tab caused the keyboard
accelerators stop working.
* Improve the macro parser.
* Allow 0 degree rotation
* Fix some drill parser bugs element.
* Fix some additional Excellon export bugs.
* Fix the pkgconfig file to include some needed dependencies.
* Includes a "layer transformation" dialog window and functionality.
Right clicking on a layer in the sidebar and selecting the "modify
layer orientation" menu item brings up a dialog box which allows the
user to translate/scale/rotate/mirror the layer. When re-saving the
layer, all user transformations are saved with the RS-274X file.
