Changes Since 2.5.11

Release changes

We’re trialing using the Github Releases feature. If you have trouble downloading this release, please report this to the mailing lists. Thanks!

Dependency changes

ClamAV now configures and builds correctly, using pkg-config for detection. You can use the --without-clamav option to configure if you have ClamAV installed but do not want to build Cyrus with support for it. The old --with-clamav=DIR variant no longer works (but it also didn’t work before!)

Cyrus should now build cleanly with LibreSSL 2.7 (thanks Bernard Spil).

Other changes

  • Cyrus release version is now preserved across autoreconf runs. This means it is now safe to run autoreconf on a release tarball source tree.
