Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce a release candidate for Mosh 1.3.1. This is a minor, bug-fix release, addressing platform/portability issues and a couple of terminal emulation issues. Most users will not need to upgrade to this release, but if you use the JuiceSSH Android client or tmux 2.4 on your server, there are fixes here for you.
The Changelog for this release:
* Platform support:
* Restore perl 5.8.8 support for RHEL5. (Alexander Chernyakhovsky)
* Make tests detect UTF-8 locale with a helper executable. (John Hood)
* Don't print /etc/motd on IllumOS. (John Hood)
* Print {,/var}/run/motd.dynamic on Ubuntu. (John Hood)
* Fix build on Haiku. (Adrien Destugues)
* Disable unicode-later-combining.test for tmux 2.4.
This fixes build failures. (John Hood)
* Bug fixes:
* Work around JuiceSSH rendering bug. (John Hood)
* Do not move cursor for SCROLL UP and SCROLL DOWN--
fixes an issue with tmux 2.4. (John Hood)
Source code is available in an unofficial distribution tarball at
<https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/releases/download/mosh-1.3.1-rc2/mosh-1.3.1-rc2.tar.gz>
(SHA256 sum
182410c7c063347c04610ee1c83f394534ac41680b5a0352fa3e4d8eab49179a).
Please note that the official signed distribution tarball will probably
be hosted at <https://mosh.org>; do not use GitHub releases as the
canonical source for Mosh.
There is also an unofficial OS X package build at
<https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/releases/download/mosh-1.3.1-rc2/mosh-1.3.1-rc2.pkg>
(SHA256 sum
ead87f7ce6477361a99593a1cc5400acf3456826aad9bf6fcb517b72964b07ce) and
accompanying build report at
<https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh/releases/download/mosh-1.3.1-rc2/mosh-1.3.1-rc2-osx-build-report.tbz>.
Also see the Travis build logs at
<https://travis-ci.org/mobile-shell/mosh/builds/234652666>. The package
supports OS X 10.10 or later.
(If you are using a package system such as MacPorts or Homebrew, I
recommend using that, though.)
As always, Ubuntu PPA builds of the latest source are available at
ppa:keithw/mosh.
Notes to packagers:
* Previous versions of Mosh have difficulty running tests with tmux 2.4. These issues should be worked-around for 2.4, and resolved with a fix in later versions of tmux.
Areas we'd like to see testing ('make distcheck', mostly) in before we
do a final release:
* RHEL 5 and 6
* OpenBSD
* Haiku
* Solaris
* Use with the JuiceSSH Android client
* Any system with tmux 2.4 or later version installed
Your testing is very unlikely to prove Mosh to be free of bugs, but your
testing will help us make 1.3.1 a better release. Please report any
issues you find on Github; we can be found on IRC at
<irc://irc.freenode.net/mosh>.
I hope to make the next Mosh release more feature oriented, bringing
significant new functionality. SSH agent forwarding is still high on
the list.
The Mosh team thanks you for your help.
