The binaries are released once a version is estimated stable enough last time the version was 14.2.2 This is what you've got publicly available on download.bareos.org Afterward, if a very blocking bug is found, (was the case in 12x series if my memory is right) another build may be published. It's up to you, if you need last binaries to a) pick the source and build from there b) Buy a subscription, download.bareos.com has always the last new version build and available here. c) May be there a third way, if you can monitor, and help on the build process. (no warranty) Why such a way may you ask? Building and maintaining an open source project, need $$$ to pay bills. The price of the subscription is very low honestly. I hope this help you to better know how it works. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
