There has been a tonne of work done on tinyproxy since the beginning
|
|
|
|
|
of last week. I have been releasing minor-minor-minor point releases,
|
|
|
|
|
but the changes in this release constitute a minor-minor point
|
|
|
|
|
release. Please see the ChangeLog for detail descriptions of all the
|
|
|
|
|
changes, but here is a brief list.

The most serious fix is to the DNS caching system. There was a memory
|
|
|
|
|
leak in the system whenever a domain was already in the database, but
|
|
|
|
|
had expired. The new domain information was placed in the database,
|
|
|
|
|
but the old information wasn't freed.

The second change is in regard to the regular expression library. For
|
|
|
|
|
a while now tinyproxy has included it's own library (the GNU version)
|
|
|
|
|
in case the system did not have a working copy. Due to a bug in the
|
|
|
|
|
configure.in script the included REGEX library was being used even if
|
|
|
|
|
a working copy was detected. This was making tinyproxy larger than it
|
|
|
|
|
needed.

I would suggest that everyone upgrade to this version; especially
|
|
|
|
|
anyone who is still running 1.4.0 or below.
