openss7 1.1.7 2013-11-23 Released

Description: OpenSS7 What's New.

Approved for Immediate Release

Nov 23, 2013
OpenSS7 today announced Release 1.1.7.20131123 of the openss7 package.

(Edmonton, Alberta -- Nov 23, 2013)   OpenSS7 today announced Release 1.1.7.20131123 of the openss7 package.

This is the OpenSS7 package. It contains all of the OpenSS7 release code and documentation. This is the only package currently released by OpenSS7. This package contains all of the former sub-packages of the OpenSS7 Master Package.

This distribution is applicable to Linux 2.4, 2.6 and 3.x kernels and was targeted at ix86, x86_64, ppc and ppc64 architectures, but should build and install for other architectures as well.

This is the fifth release of the OpenSS7 package. This is a production grade release. All existing validation test suites run clean on supported distributions, production kernels and architectures.

Major features since the last release are as follows:

  • Correction to ca-cert handling in RHEL 6 install scriptlet.
  • RHEL 6 build changes.
  • Set permissions correctly when applying kernel module patch.
  • Do not duplicate certs when including ca-cert.
  • Avoid conflicting shelll variable in RPM install scriplet.
  • Remove /proc/1/comm checks for systemd in module loader

This is a public stable production grade release of the package: it deprecates previous releases. Please upgrade to the current release before reporting bugs.

As with other OpenSS7 releases, this release configures, compiles, installs and builds RPMs and DEBs for a wide range of Linux 2.4, 2.6 and 3.x rpm(8) and dpkg(1) based distributions, and can be used on production kernels without patching or recompiling the kernel.

This package is publicly released strictly under the GNU Aferro General Public License Version 3; however, commercial licensing is available. The release is available as an autoconf(1) tarball, SRPM, DSC, and a set of binary RPMs and DEBs for popular distributions. See the package page (http://www.openss7.org/openss7_pkg.html) or the repository page (http://www.openss7.org/repos.html) for information concerning network installation and update sources.

See the ChangeLog and NEWS files in the release for more information. Also, see the openss7.pdf manual in the release (also in html (http://www.openss7.org/openss7_manual.html)).
