net-snmp-5.8.1.pre2 released

[Wes Hardaker via Net-snmp-coders]

After far far too long of a delay, I've just pushed net-snmp-5.8.1.pre2
to the download site:

https://www.net-snmp.org/download.html

Please give it a whirl, and report issues and fixes to our github site
at:

https://github.com/net-snmp/net-snmp

Current changes to 5.8.1.pre2 total:

*5.8.1*
snmplib:
  - Add IPv6 support to DTLSUDP transport
  - use new netsnmp_sockaddr_storage in netsnmp_addr_pair
  - add base_transport ptr for tunneled transports
  - Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.1
  - Dtls: overhaul of debug
  - Remove inline versions of container funcs

snmpd:
  - Use ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS when available Newer Linux kernels
support ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS. Use it when available instead of the
older and deprecated ETHTOOL_GSET. This patch avoids that the Linux
kernel reports the following kernel warning: warning: 'snmpd' uses
legacy ethtool link settings API, link modes are only partially
reported See also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/patches/1387/.
[bvanassche: reworked this patch significantly]

snmptrap:
  - BUG: 2899: Patch from Drew Roedersheimer to set library
engineboots/time values before sending

snmptrapd:
  - Add support for the latest libmysqlclient version

libsnmp:
  - Scan MIB directories in alphabetical order This guarantees that
e.g. mibs/RFC1213-MIB.txt is read before mibs/SNMPv2-MIB.txt. The
order in which these MIBs is read matters because both define
sysLocation but with different attributes.

unspecified:
  - [BUG 2930]: Fix a Solaris hrSWInst crash Avoid that snmpd crashes
on Solaris when querying software packages with an empty CATEGORY
field. See also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/bugs/2930/. See
also https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/patches/1390/.

Win32:
  - BUG: 2779541 Fixed handle leak in pass_persist.

Hmmm...  credit somewhere might be hard.  To make it easier on you, why
don't you send it to pay...@capturedonearth.com and I'll take care of
finding a place to get stickers created and will send out an
announcement form with 5.8.1, which should be ready in a few months.
Then I can take care of getting stickers and shipping them.
