D-Bus 1.1.4 (1.2.0RC2) – “Opps, I did it again” released
Posted by J5 under D-Bus , Freedesktop , Standards[5] Comments
Well folks, D-Bus 1.1.3 has a little bug introduced via the inotify patch which would consume 100% of your memory, go into the OOM killer and subsequently consume 100% of your CPU. This is exactly why we have the Release Candidate series, to root out any last minute issues. Thanks to all who tested and sacrificed their productivity to get us to this next release. D-Bus 1.1.4 (1.2.0RC2) is now available for your perusal.

Oh, good. I had this problem today when I compiled and reinstalled cups, and I was going to report the bug in my distro’s bugzilla. Nice to know that it’s already been fixed.

Hi! Any more problems or what’s keeping 1.2.0 back now?

Re-licensing to the MIT/X11 license is up in the air. I should be doing a 1.1.20 this week or next which will be the 1.2.0 release without the relicensing.
