There have been many changes since the previous official release, 1.4.3, which
was published 7 years ago, so we'll only mention a few of them:
- This Loudmouth release is compatible with current Glib/GTK libraries
- The internal asyncns copy has been removed
- The security has been improved in several ways:
- Certificates: added checking of SAN(s) when CN does not match and fixed CN
wildcard handling
- SSL 2 and 3 have been deactivated; TLS 1.1 and 1.2 have been activated
- Use the default cipher suite of GnuTLS
- New API: Implementation of lm_ssl_set_ca and lm_ssl_set_cipher_list
This enables the application to choose additional CA certificates to trust
as well as the cipher suites which are used by OpenSSL or GnuTLS
- Many resolver and parser issues have been fixed
I can't find a subsequent changelog for 1.5.1 to 1.5.3 but assume "bugs fixed".
* This is the same as 1.1.5 but marked as stable and released as 1.2.0.
* For a complete list of changes since 1.0.5 look at the changes in 1.1.1-1.1.5
Changes 1.1.5:
* Fixed leak when closing a connection, LM-59
* Escape the resource string (fixes problems with iChat contacts), LM-48
* Stale incoming source destroyed/unreffed, LM-60
* Fixed a leak in the synchronous layer, LM-66
* Fixed a couple of warning when building on 64 bit alpha, LM-41.
Changes 1.1.4:
* Generate better message IDs, LM-56
* Fixed a leaking proxy object, LM-51
* Fixed random bugs on connection errors, LM-58
* Removed a warning when using proxy, LM-50.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".
