[Opendnssec-announce] RE: OpenDNSSEC 1.4.0a3

[Sara Dickinson]

All,

Version 1.4.0a3 of OpenDNSSEC has now been released. This version is recommended 
for testing only, not for use in production environments.

Updates:

* OPENDNSSEC-258: Optionally include cka_id in output to DelegationSignerSubmitCommand.
 
Bugfixes:
 
* SUPPORT-27: ods-ksmutil: simplify zone delete so that it only marks keys
 as dead (rather than actually removing them). Leave the key removal to purge
 jobs.
* SUPPORT-29: Signer Engine: Fix ods-signer clear <zone> command exits
 prematurely [OPENDNSSEC-289].
* SUPPORT-30: Signer Engine: RRSIGs are left in the signed zone when
 authoritative RRsets become glue [OPENDNSSEC-282].
* OPENDNSSEC-278: ods-ksmutil processes waiting forever to get DB lock
* OPENDNSSEC-290: Signer Engine: Fix false conflict when changing CNAME into
 other RRtype.
* OPENDNSSEC-298: Enforcer: Only unlink existing pidfile on exit if we wrote it.
* OPENDNSSEC-304: Signer Engine: Check pidfile on startup, if pidfile exists
 and corresponding process is running, then complain and exit.
* OPENDNSSEC-306: Can't delete zone until Enforcer made signconf.
* Fix assertion error when printing signed zone with empty non-terminals and NSEC.
* Make setting QUERY ID in XFR requests more random.
