|
|
I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of RT 2.0.9. This
release hast lots and lots of new goodies and bug fixes:
Installation:
* RT now depends on DBIx::SearchBuilder 0.47
* tools/insertdata: Fixed templates to include the ticket subject if
it was otherwise blank
* tools/cpan2rpm: Added cpan2rpm to the tools directory, for
autogenerating rpms of CPAN modules
* Makefile, rt.spec: Added support for autobuilding an rpm with
"make rpm"
* Fixes to initacls.Pg to allow installation with Unix Domain sockets
* tools/initdb: initdb won't whine if you don't set a host
* Refactored images path to have a configurable URL, so it will work
with fastcgi ;)
* Lengthened queue name and email addresses in the default DB schema
* etc/: config.pm, schema.Pg, schema.mysql, schema.pm: Added some new
indices, based on recommendations from Nobel Tse at Outblaze
Core:

displaying ticket columns.

connections-over-ssl

modify the set of statuses available. Though that's 100% unsupported.

"resolved" date set right.

password to the user.

that a requestor is always a user, rather than an email address.

templates.

open to open" bug, thanks to raphael at linkvest.
