Subject: rsync 3.4.4 released, regression fixes

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

I've released rsync 3.4.4 which has regression fixes for the rsync 3.4.3
security release. The release is available from https://rsync.samba.org/ -
it is not embargoed as it contains no new security issues, just fixes for
the regressions that 3.4.3 introduced.
As part of the release I have created 3.2.7 and 3.4.1 backport patch sets
to aid distros with LTS releases that use those versions. The backport
patch sets and their signatures are on https://rsync.samba.org/. For each
backport I have created two sets of patches:
 - one against the original release (so v3.2.7 and v3.4.1)
 - and another one against the last security update for easy addition to
existing security releases

I would also note that there will be a 3.5.0 rsync release soon with a lot
more security updates.

As part of the 3.5.0 release update I have created a
rsync-security@...ts.samba.org mailing list for anyone who is willing to do
testing of the 3.5.0 release. The idea is to try to reduce the chance of
more regressions by expanding the set of testers of this release. I have
seeded it with people who were involved in past rsync security issues. If
you want to join this list then the easiest way would be for you to be
vouched for by someone on the distros@...openwall.org list or someone else
I already trust.

My apologies for the regressions in the 3.4.3 release and I hope future
security updates for rsync will have less issues. The greatly expanded test
suite in rsync 3.5 combined with the rsync-security mailing list should
help.
