I am pleased to announce the release of Augeas 0.7.4.
This is mostly a bugfixing release, and fixes a number of very serious
bugs that can lead to segfaults and other unpleasantries.
There are also a few lens changes that are not backwards compatible; see
the list below.
In detail:
- augtool: new clearm command to parallel setm
- augtool: add --file option
- Fix SEGV under gcc 4.5, caused by difficulties of the gcc optimizer
handling bitfields (bug #149; rhbz #651992)
- Preserve parse errors under /augeas//error: commit 5ee81630, released
in 0.7.3, introduced a regression that would cause the loss of parse
errors; bug #138
- Avoid losing already parsed nodes under certain circumstances; bug #144
- Properly record the new mtime of a saved file; previously the mtime in
the tree was reset to 0 when a file was saved, causing unnecessary file
reloads
- fix a SEGV when using L_MAYBE in recursive lens; bug #136

Unfortunately, I won't be able to build Fedora/EPEL RPM's for at least a
week - would be great if somebody wants to beat me to it.
