Changes in Galera 4.14 (2023-03-08) Codership is pleased to announce the release of Galera Replication library 4.14, implementing wsrep API version 26. The library is available as targeted packages and package repositories for a number of Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS and RHEL. Obtaining packages using a package repository removes the need to download individual files and facilitates the deployment and upgrade of Galera nodes. This and future releases will be available from https://www.galeracluster.com. The latest version of Galera for FreeBSD will be available in the FreeBSD Ports Collection. Notable changes and fixes in Galera since latest release 4.13: - memory leak in the gcs gcomm backend fixed (tp_ object deleted in GCommConn destructor) - protonet.backend option deprecated since it only supports one option, asio, and the option will be removed in future release. Related, protonet.version is also deprecated - deprecation message for socket.ssl_compression as SSL compression cannot be enabled and the option will be removed in future releases - library could parse incorrect parameters as long as it had a "good" prefix, i.e. evs.*, so fix prevents setting of invalid option values - parsing of ISO8601 durations previously accepted invalid values, now fixed - in addition to ISO8601 format, parsing durations now supports real number representation Known Issues: - In order to install Galera package on RHEL 8, MySQL and MariaDB modules need to be disabled first with `dnf -y module disable mysql mariadb`.
