Hello, This is to announce the version 1.17 of GNU dbm. This is a maintenance release; see the end of this message for the list of noteworthy changes.
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.17.tar.gz/gdbm-1.17.tar.gz ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/gdbm-1.17.tar.gz/gdbm-1.17.tar.gz.sig Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html Here are the MD5 and SHA1 checksums: f20ce117abc6f302ecf62c34d41c1ecf gdbm-1.17.tar.gz 7037e32c7bdfd897a24190bf3c03f122e3370e9d gdbm-1.17.tar.gz [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this: gpg --verify gdbm-1.17.tar.gz.sig If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, then run this command to import it: gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 3602B07F55D0C732 and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command. This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.69 Automake 1.15 Bison 2.7 Flex 2.5.37 Makeinfo 5.9.93 Changes in this release: * int gdbm_close and gdbm_sync Both functions now return 0 on success. On error, they return -1 and set gdbm_errno and errno to the appropriate error codes. This fixes Puszcza bug 399 (https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/bugs/?399). Regards, Sergey -- If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html.
