Other user-visible changes include minor +additions to the "ls" and "select" server commands. The release also +includes a fair number of cleanups for the crypto code and the file +descriptor utilities, both without visible effects. Old ssh keys +and outdated openssl library versions are now deprecated and cause +warnings. + +- Old style PEM keys are now deprecated. They still work but their + use results in a run-time warning. The removal of PEM key support is + scheduled for paraslash-0.8.0. +- Version 1.0 of the openssl library has been deprecated. A warning + is printed at compile-time on systems which have this outdated version + because it will no longer be supported once paraslash-0.8.0 comes out. +- A spring cleanup for the senescent code in fd.c. +- The --admissible option of the ls command now takes an optional + argument. When invoked like --admissible=m/foo, only files which are + admissible with respect to mood foo are listed. +- The select server command is now quiet by default, The new --verbose + option can be used to show information about the newly loaded mood + or playlist. +- The ls server command gained the --limit option to force a limit + on the number of files listed. +- Cleanup of the openssl-specific code. +Downloads: +[tarball](./releases/paraslash-0.7.3.tar.xz), +[signature](./releases/paraslash-0.7.3.tar.xz.asc) + +------------------------------------- +0.7.2 (2023-03-08) "optical friction" +------------------------------------- + +The improved error reporting of afs commands and the two new options +for the sleep subcommand of para_mixer are the most prominent features +of this minor release. The bulk of the changes are cleanups of the +afs and net subsystems, which should both have no user-visible impact. + +- A major cleanup of the audio file selector. +- The client no longer prints error messages from afs commands to + stdout but to stderr. - The sleep subcommand of para_mixer gained two options to control the startup mood and the time period before fade-out starts. A bunch of further improvements for this subcommand went in as well. - Minor cleanup of the net subsystem. +- The openssl specific code now employs the EVP API to compute hashes. + It should compile without warnings against openssl-3. +- The deprecated syntax for specifying negative offsets in the argument + to the "ff" server command has been removed.
