   Today we have released PowerDNS Recursor 5.3.14 and 5.4.9.

   These are maintenance releases that fix a single bug:

     * Do not depend on specific order of thread local object destruction.
       When rec_control quit-nicely is called, all threads and objects
       associated with threads are torn down. On some runtime
       environments, we would access already deallocated objects during
       the tear-down, resulting in a segmentation fault.

   Please refer to the changelogs  ([1]5.3.14, [2]5.4.9) for additional
   details.

   Please send us all feedback and issues you might have via
   the [3]mailing list, or in case of a bug, via [4]GitHub.

   The tarballs ([5]5.3.14, [6]5.4.9) (with signature files [7]5.3.14,
   [8]5.4.9) are available from our download [9]server and packages for
   several distributions are available from our [10]repository.

   We made changes to our Open Source End of Life policy. Older release
   trains are now supported for one year after the following major
   release. Consult the EOL [11]policy for more details.

   We are grateful to the PowerDNS community for the reporting of bugs,
   issues, feature requests, and especially to the submitters of fixes and
   implementations of features.
