Title: 1.8.6 due...
Post by: Charles Kingsley on March 13, 2011, 07:18:14 AM
Well it's been 6 months since we released 1.8.5 and with a few fixes we're due a 1.8.6.

Before we do this though it needs to be tested thoroughly by networks running 1.8 already and until we have a sufficient number of happy folks it won't be released.

So please take an interest, download it from git (or if you wish for Windows I will build a copy) and give it a run through on your network and let us know how it goes.

git is not a person but a method of how to retrieve the latest version of anope.

Will it automatically get 1.8.6, or do i have to change it to that version?

I just entered the command that's on that news post and /version on my ircd is saying I have 1.8.5

After you 'git' the directory you have to run ./Config, make and make install all over again, then restart services.

The version should look something like:

katsklaw@laptop:~/services$ ./anoperc version
Anope-1.8.5-git (3065)  M -- build #1, compiled Mar 16 2011 21:06:12

I'll take a Windows build if you don't mind. I am sure you'll need someone to test it...
