This is a minor release. The primary reason for it is the amount of interest in
|
|
the Python interface to libmosquitto. This release tidies up the Python
|
|
interface considerably (it is now more "Pythonic" and easier to use), and
|
|
significantly, brings the promised packages.
|
|
|
|
This release also provides a few fixes, including to the packaging and
|
|
installation scripts. Unfortunately, it does also include a known bug that was
|
|
fixed prior to release, but accidentally left unmerged. This affects
|
|
mosquitto_pub client when using the -l option (publish line by line input from
|
|
stdin), causing it to exhibit high cpu load. I'll make a new bug fix release in
|
|
a few days with this and any other fixes that come up.
|
|
|
|
This release also provides improved packaging options. All of the available
|
|
options are now packaged for Ubuntu, including the libmosquitto0-python
|
|
package. Because there are now multiple packages, it is possible to provide
|
|
some mosquitto functionality on distributions where the version of sqlite3 is
|
|
too old. The packages available on these systems are listed as "clients only":
|
|
|
|
* Fedora 12, 13 (full support)
|
|
* openSUSE 11.3 (full support)
|
|
* openSUSE 11.1, 11.2 (clients only)
|
|
* Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 (clients only)
|
|
* CentOS 5 (clients only)
|
|
|
|
Details are available on the [download page]. Please note that some
|
|
distributions have different naming schemes, so the Python module can be called
|
|
both python-mosquitto and libmosquitto0-mosquitto for example.
