Hi all,
It's been a long time without a 1.4-stable release, and we fixed
a number of issues in mainline since last release. So here comes
1.4.25, which is up to date with master as of today.
Two major bugs were fixed :
- BUG/MAJOR: http: don't emit the send-name-header when no server is available
=> this one would cause a crash if no server was available
- BUG/MAJOR: server: weight calculation fails for map-based algorithms
=> crashes could happen if changing weights on the CLI with map-based algos
Other issues are less important but still worth fixing for people running on
1.4.24 or older. For packages maintainers, I'd suggest to at least take all
the MAJOR and MEDIUM fixes, as well as the chunk size upgrade which avoids
some rare issues for large chunks and represents zero risk.
