[LogReport Announcement] Lire 2.1 is released

[Joost van Baal]

Hi,

Lire 2.1 is available for download from http://download.logreport.org/pub/.
Major changes since 2.0.3 (the previous stable release):

- Lire now requires DBD::SQLite, which uses SQLite 3.0.  (SQLite 2 has
  become obsolete and is no longer supported).  This means that the
  Lire database format has changed. If you have one or more old lire
  stores, you will need to convert each of them from SQLite2 format to
  SQLite3 format, like this:
        sqlite oldstore.db .dump | sqlite3 newstore.db
  This assumes that you have both sqlite2 and sqlite3 installed on your
  system, and that the names of the command line interface for the old
  and new version are sqlite and sqlite3 respectively (this is at least
  correct for Fedora).  After completion of the conversion(s), and
  after upgrading to Lire 2.1, SQLite 2 can be removed from your
  system, unless it is used by other applications than Lire of course.
- Improvement in exim2dlf, thanks to a patch contributed by Adrian Phillips.
  Version 4.67 of exim introduced pid to log_selector, exim2dlf now supports
  such log files too.  See also
  http://lists.logreport.org/pipermail/development/2008/000934.html.  Note
  that compatibility with pre-4.67 exim logfiles is preserved by this patch.
- Added the merge2combined and dlf2combined www scripts for merging web
  server logs of different types into one log file in combined format.

Next to these changes, various bugfixes and documentation improvements have
been made.  See NEWS (at http://download.logreport.org/pub/current/NEWS) (or
see http://download.logreport.org/pub/current/ChangeLog) for the details.

Binary packages for the Debian, Ubuntu as well as for the Fedora distribution
will likely get shipped soon.  Debian and Ubuntu users should watch their
official archives.  We'll announce availability for Fedora RPMs using this
list.

Lire is in the FreeBSD ports collection (thanks to Edwin Groothuis), as well as
in the pkgsrc-wip repository, for NetBSD and other platforms (thanks to Peter
Bex).  BSD users should watch these ports for updates.

Thanks, Bye,

Joost
