We are pleased to announce the GNU Shepherd version 0.4.0, a release containing new features and bug fixes.
• About The GNU Daemon Shepherd or GNU Shepherd is a service manager written in Guile that looks after the herd of system services. It provides a replacement for the service-managing capabilities of SysV-init (or any other init) with a dependency-based system with a convenient interface. The GNU Shepherd may also be used by unprivileged users to manage per-user daemons (e.g., tor, privoxy, mcron, etc.) It is written in Guile Scheme, and is configured and extended using Guile. The GNU Shepherd is developed jointly with the GNU Guix project; it is used as the init system of GuixSD, GNU’s advanced GNU/Linux distribution. https://www.gnu.org/software/shepherd/ • Download Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/shepherd/shepherd-0.4.0.tar.gz https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/shepherd/shepherd-0.4.0.tar.gz.sig Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 hashes: 35bfe5a8355e7a44c28b96010c45f1aef36fb189 shepherd-0.4.0.tar.gz 16f1da9305dad0abeb66d1707a2f12c196432b13b7cddfb56a1d4564fbd2f5d1 shepherd-0.4.0.tar.gz [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact.
