Dear all,

It has come to my attention that the ldns 1.6.15 emergency release was
not available from the referred to location. Now it is.

link: http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/ldns/ldns-1.6.15.tar.gz
sha1: a47cb11fa5c601410e2e8feda36ab343162fe92b

The previous announcement is repeated verbatim below:

WARNING: Binary Incompatibility in ldns 1.6.14
==============================================

There is a binary incompatibility in ldns 1.6.14 which is fixed with an
emergency release of ldns 1.6.15. It is available here:

link: http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/ldns/ldns-1.6.15.tar.gz
sha1: a47cb11fa5c601410e2e8feda36ab343162fe92b

Only ldns 1.6.14, and no other version, breaks binary compatibility with
earlier versions. Part of the return status codes have different values
in ldns 1.6.14. This has unpredictable effects on software using ldns
such as Unbound and OpenDNSSEC when the library is upgraded.

ldns 1.6.15 is binary compatible with ldns 1.6.13 and earlier again.
We strongly recommend to package that version and skip packaging ldns
1.6.14 if possible.

Warning!
If you have compiled ldns using software with ldns-1.6.14, then this new
version will be binary incompatible with your installed version. You
will have to recompile the software together with ldns-1.6.15.

Was the software compiled with ldns-1.6.13 or earlier, then you will not
have this problem and can safely install ldns-1.6.15.

Best regards,

Willem

Changelog:
==========
* Remove LDNS_STATUS_EXISTS_ERR from ldns/error.h to make ldns
  binary compatible with earlier releases again.
