[lttng-dev] [RELEASE] Babeltrace 1.5.11

[Jérémie Galarneau]

Hi,

Today we are releasing the eleventh bug-fix release of Babeltrace 1.5. While
this release series has reached EOL, this update was deemed necessary as the
latest release of popt (v1.19) introduced a breaking change (changing the
ownership of left-over command line arguments) that breaks prior babeltrace
v1.5.x releases.

Note that memory leak checking tools will report a leak when using popt < 1.19
when running this release. This leak is benign as it is limited to the command
line arguments and doesn't grow over time.

For more information, see:

Note that the latest announced release of this branch was v1.5.8. The following
change log includes the changes from all three follow-up releases.
