If you want to see more detailed descriptions of the changes in each development snapshot, see the ChangeLog file. +Changes in version 0.4.6.9 - 2021-12-15 + This version fixes several bugs from earlier versions of Tor. One important + piece is the removal of DNS timeout metric from the overload general signal. + See below for more details. + + o Major bugfixes (relay, overload): + - Don't make Tor DNS timeout trigger an overload general state. + These timeouts are different from DNS server timeout. They have to + be seen as timeout related to UX and not because of a network + problem. Fixes bug 40527; bugfix on 0.4.6.1-alpha. + + o Minor feature (reproducible build): + - The repository can now build reproducible tarballs which adds the + build command "make dist-reprod" for that purpose. Closes + ticket 26299. + + o Minor features (compilation): + - Give an error message if trying to build with a version of + LibreSSL known not to work with Tor. (There's an incompatibility + with LibreSSL versions 3.2.1 through 3.4.0 inclusive because of + their incompatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1's TLSv1.3 APIs.) Closes + ticket 40511. + + o Minor features (fallbackdir): + - Regenerate fallback directories generated on December 15, 2021. + + o Minor features (geoip data): + - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as + retrieved on 2021/12/15. + + o Minor bugfixes (compilation): + - Fix our configuration logic to detect whether we had OpenSSL 3: + previously, our logic was reversed. This has no other effect than + to change whether we suppress deprecated API warnings. Fixes bug + 40429; bugfix on 0.3.5.13. + + o Minor bugfixes (relay): + - Reject IPv6-only DirPorts. Our reachability self-test forces + DirPorts to be IPv4, but our configuration parser allowed them to + be IPv6-only, which led to an assertion failure. Fixes bug 40494; + bugfix on 0.4.5.1-alpha. + + o Documentation (man, relay): + - Missing "OverloadStatistics" in tor.1 manpage. Fixes bug 40504; + bugfix on 0.4.6.1-alpha. + + Changes in version 0.4.6.8 - 2021-10-26 This version fixes several bugs from earlier versions of Tor. One highlight is a fix on how we track DNS timeouts to report general |
