[Dnsmasq-discuss] Announce: dnsmasq-2.64rc1

[Simon Kelley]

I'm starting the release process for dnsmasq 2.64 by making a first
release candidate, please check that it works for you: finding problems
now is much better than finding them later.

Changelog below.


Cheers,

Simon.

version 2.64
            Handle DHCP FQDN options with all flag bits zero and
            --dhcp-client-update set. Thanks to Bernd Krumbroeck for
            spotting the problem.

            Finesse the check for /etc/hosts names which conflict with
            DHCP names. Previously a name/address pair in /etc/hosts
            which didn't match the name/address of a DHCP lease would
            generate a warning. Now that only happesn if there is not
            also a match. This allows multiple addresses for a name in
            /etc/hosts with one of them assigned via DHCP.

            Fix broken vendor-option processing for BOOTP. Thanks to
            Hans-Joachim Baader for the bug report.

            Don't report spurious netlink errors, regression in
            2.63. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.

            Flag DHCP or DHCPv6 in starup logging. Thanks to
            Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.

            Add SetServersEX method in DBus interface. Thanks to Dan
            Williams for the patch.

            Fix build with later Lua libraries. Thansk to Cristian
            Rodriguez for the patch.

            Add --max-cache-ttl option. Thanks to Dennis Kaarsemaker
            for the patch.

            Fix breakage of --host-record parsing, resulting in
            infinte loop at startup. Regression in 2.63. Thanks to
            Haim Gelfenbeyn for spotting this.

            Set SO_REUSEADDRESS and SO_V6ONLY options on the DHCPv6
            socket, this allows multiple instances of dnsmasq on a
            single machine, in the same way as for DHCPv4. Thanks to
            Gene Czarcinski and Vladislav Grishenko for work on this.

            Fix DHCPv6 to do access control correctly when it's
            configured with --listen-address. Thanks to
            Gene Czarcinski for sorting this out.

            Add a "wildcard" dhcp-range which works for any IPv6
            subnet, --dhcp-range=::,static Useful for Stateless
            DHCPv6. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.

            Don't include lease-time in DHCPACK replies to DHCPINFORM
            queries, since RFC-2131 says we shouldn't. Thanks to
            Wouter Ibens for pointing this out.

            Makefile tweak to do dependency checking on header files.
            Thanks to Johan Peeters for the patch.
