[Pdns-announce] PowerDNS Authoritative Server 5.1.1

[Miod Vallat]

Despite our best efforts, a severe bug escaped our testing while
working on the 5.1.0 release. Users of the LMDB backend, when not using
the new ``lmdb-split-domain-table’’, would fail to update their last
notification timestamp, and cause secondary servers to keep trying to
synchronize with their primary servers, and primary servers to keep
asking their secondaries to do so.

We apologize for this, and are releasing PowerDNS Authoritative Server
version 5.1.1 today to fix this problem.

If you are not using the LMDB backend, you do not need to upgrade to
5.1.1 and can stick to the 5.1.0 release.

Regardless of your use case, please make sure to read the [1]Upgrade
Notes before upgrading.

The [2]tarball and its [3]signature are available at
[4]downloads.powerdns.com. Packages for various distributions are
available from [5]repo.powerdns.com.

Please send us all feedback and issues you might have via the
[6]mailing list, or in case of a bug, via [7]GitHub.
