Changes in version 0.2.8.10 - 2016-12-0?
Tor 0.2.8.10 backports a fix for a bug that would sometimes make clients
unusable after they left stanbdy mode. It also backports fixes for
a few portability issues and a small but problematic memory leak.
o Major bugfixes (client performance, backport from 0.2.9.5-alpha):
- Clients now respond to new application stream requests immediately
when they arrive, rather than waiting up to one second before
starting to handle them. Fixes part of bug 19969; bugfix
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (client reliability, backport from 0.2.9.5-alpha):
- When Tor leaves standby because of a new application request, open
circuits as needed to serve that request. Previously, we would
potentially wait a very long time. Fixes part of bug 19969; bugfix
on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (portability, backport from 0.2.9.6-rc):
- Work around a bug in the OSX 10.12 SDK that would prevent us from
successfully targeting earlier versions of OSX. Resolves
ticket 20235.
o Minor bugfixes (portability, backport from 0.2.9.5-alpha):
- Fix implicit conversion warnings under OpenSSL 1.1. Fixes bug
20551; bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (relay, backport from 0.2.9.5-alpha):
- Work around a memory leak in OpenSSL 1.1 when encoding public
keys. Fixes bug 20553; bugfix on 0.0.2pre8.
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the November 3 2016 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database.
Changes in version 0.2.8.9 - 2016-10-17
