I.1. Changes from 2.8.5 to 2.8.6
-
PLANNED: Keep track of any further API clean-up?
-
Potentially a breaking change for C++ clients that rushed to use the new
SSL support options in
libnutclient: for Mozilla NSS setup, the way to
provide an expected CERTHOST address was missing. Now the API is fixed
in this regard, at the cost of adding arguments to methods introduced in
the previous release. [issue #3331, PR #3408]
-
Potentially a breaking change for existing deployments with a (large)
MAXCONN setting in upsd.conf: now this value is checked against the
getrlimit() (e.g. ulimit -n) setting of the operating system for this
daemon, where available, and the upsd data server would refuse to start
if the requested value is larger than what is allowed (minus some reserve
for configuration files and other use-cases). [issue #3365]
