gdbm-1.18 released [stable]

Show all headers | View raw

Hello,

Please be informed that the version 1.18 of GNU DBM is available for
download. This is a bug-fixing release. See the end of this message for
a detailed list of changes.

Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.18.tar.gz/gdbm-1.18.tar.gz
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.18.tar.gz/gdbm-1.18.tar.gz.sig

Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
  https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

Here are the MD5 and SHA1 checksums:

e316f8e4a3e7e4f23955be65d54fec48  gdbm-1.18.tar.gz
0f1056ab3beb1bf09dad06f8083f2c79716a5b1b  gdbm-1.18.tar.gz

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify gdbm-1.18.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 3602B07F55D0C732

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
  Autoconf 2.69
  Automake 1.15
  Bison 2.7
  Flex 2.5.37
  Makeinfo 5.9.93

Noteworthy changes:

* Fix directory entry validation

This fixes https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/bugs/?402

* Fix improper use of GDBM_DEBUG macro

This fixes https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/bugs/?401

* Fix spurious error from gdbm_dump and gdbm_export

These functions incorrectly reported as error the GDBM_ITEM_NOT_FOUND
status, which is returned upon normal termination of iteration over the
database keys.

* Make sure gdbm_sync always returns a meaningful value

This fixes https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/bugs/?400

Best regards,
Sergey
