  aria::KeyVals is a vector of pair of std strings, therefore the type

  std::string>, however in the docs, the type of the said object is
  KeyVals. If one follows the docs, their code will fail to compile.

  Patch from geetam

• Unbreak build OSX build

• Update macOS versions

  Don't save control file if --auto-save-interval is 0.

  GH-917

• Fix infinite loop bug when file is not found

  Some links used in Dockerfile.raspberrypi are not accessible
  anymore, because they were pointing to old versions of some source
  packages and new versions were released. This commit fixes this by
  changing the links to point to the newest versions.

  Patch from Michał Leśniewski

  GH-860

• Propagate disk full error on pre-allocation to last error code

  GH-856

Release Note

This release fixes assertion error in
SimpleRandomizer::getRandomBytes. It adds new option
content-disposition-default-utf8.

Changes

• Better error message when local file status cannot be retrieved

  GH-836

• Fix assertion failure in SimpleRandomizer::getRandomBytes

  errno might not be initialized to 0, and we may get both rv == -1
  and errno != ENOSYS. This leads to assertion failure. Since
  getrandom_linux always returns -1 on failure, checking errno is
  useless in this function.

  GH-823

• Add option content-disposition-default-utf8

  Patch from JimmyZ

  GH-813

Release Note

This release fixes several bugs. See Changes below for detailed bug
fixes. This release adds an ability to expand ${HOME} to user's
home directory in several options. It would be useful when used in
configuration file. -S option against torrent file now prints out DHT
nodes.

Changes

• mingw: Use sqlite 3.15.2

• Fix bug that --disable-websocket causes build error

• Fix bug that lower bound of optimize-concurrent-downloads becomes 1

  GH-798

• Print DHT nodes with -S option

  GH-795

• Take into account address family when resolving DHT node address

  GH-794

• Allow block device file to -i option

  GH-785

• Expand ${HOME} to user's home directory in several options

  The following options implement this substitution:

  • --ca-certificate
  • --certificate
  • --dht-file-path
  • --dht-file-path6
  • --dir
  • --input-file
  • --load-cookies
  • --log
  • --metalink-file
  • --netrc-path
  • --on-bt-download-complete
  • --on-download-complete
  • --on-download-error
  • --on-download-start
  • --on-download-stop
  • --on-download_pause
  • --out
  • --private-key
  • --rpc-certificate
  • --rpc-private-key
  • --save-cookies
  • --save-session
  • --server-stat-if
  • --server-stat-of
  • --torrent-file

  GH-780

• Document that libaria2 is not thread safe

  GH-775

• configure: Use pkg-config to find libs whenever possible

  Use pkg-config to find cppunit, libxml2 and expat. All those
  libraries provide pkg-config files, and in all of those cases the
  pkg-config macro is superior to the custom macros used currently.

  The advantages of pkg-config files include:

  • Explicit static linking support via --static. Currently, e.g.
    'xml2-config --libs' prints all libraries needed for static
    linking when doing dynamic linking unnecessary, resulting in
    unnecessary direct deps.
  • Better cross-build support. You don't have to build the additional
    *-config tools for target.
  • Better multilib support. Per-ABI pkgconfig directories are
    commonly supported while packages usually fail to look for
    per-CHOST *-config variants.
  • Better override support. The current macros allow little to no
    result overrides, the pkg-config macros let you pass FOO_CFLAGS
    and FOO_LIBS manually.
  • Cleaner version checks. The code used in libxml.m4 is really
    creepy.

  Patch from Michał Górny

  GH-773

• WinTLS: Rewrite writeData

  We re-wrote WinTLSSession::writeData. The major points are:

  • Buffer is now preallocated once handshake is finished.
    Previously, they are allocated each time when we send one TLS
    record.
  • Schannel uses header, body and trailer for each secBuffer. Now we
    send them off at once using WSASend which is windows counterpart
    of sendv. Previously, we do memmove if some of them are
    truncated.
  • We don't try to send application data in
    WinTLSSession::closeConnection, since semantically we need same
    application data used to create TLS record before. Using 0 length
    data to finish sending buffered data looks like a hack.

  GH-772

Release Note

This release fixes several bugs. See Changes below for detailed bug
fixes. This release adds 1xx non-final response support. Wslay
library is updated to the latest revision.

Changes

• WinTLS: Fix busy loop on write error

  GH-767

• Support 1xx non-final response

  GH-763

• Update wslay

  GH-764

• Don't download piece which is filtered out (e.g., --select-file)

  This commit fixes the bug that piece which is not requested by
  --select-file is downloaded in multi-file Web-Seeding.
