Hi everybody, I've packed and published new versions of the 4.7 and 4.8 versions of collectd, the system statistics collection daemon. The most sever fix from my point of view is a memory leak in the implementation of the LISTVAL command.
This will be the last release of the 4.7 line of versions because version 4.9 will be released on Monday. This means that from this point on no more bugfixes will be applied to the 4.7 branch. Download -------- Source tarballs are available from collectd's homepage. The direct download links are: Version 4.8.2: * http://collectd.org/files/collectd-4.8.2.tar.bz2 * http://collectd.org/files/collectd-4.8.2.tar.gz Version 4.7.5: * http://collectd.org/files/collectd-4.7.5.tar.bz2 * http://collectd.org/files/collectd-4.7.5.tar.gz Thanks ------ Thanks to everybody who helped with these releases.
