Version 1.11.6 is an update that fixes a few minor bugs.

At the same time, it is the last planned leafnode-1.X release, there is
no more stuff on the 1.X TODO list, so future efforts should go into
leafnode-2, other projects permitting.

A binary RPM for Linux with glibc 2.2 and i486 or compatible processors
is provided. It also requires packages providing libpcre.so.0 and xinetd.
For easier debugging (and only if backtraces are needed, such as when
leafnode/fetchnews stall or crash), there is now a -debuginfo RPM, too.

This version is or will become available in .tar.bz2 format from these sites:

o SourceForge -- Source .tar.bz2 and i486 Linux RPM
   http://sourceforge.net/projects/leafnode/
   http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=57767&release_id=494356
   rsync://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/l/le/leafnode/

o Mirror -- Source .tar.bz2, .tar.gz, upgrade patch, i486 Linux RPM
   http://home.pages.de/~mandree/leafnode/

o IBiblio/MetaLab (will take some days to pick up) -- has FTP sites
   http://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/MIRRORS.html
   Check the system/news/transport directory

Not all sites carry all file types (.tar.bz2, .tar.gz, .rpm).

Below are file checksums and the NEWS file excerpt, with changes since
the previous release.  The full ChangeLog ships with the tarballs and
can also be viewed at http://home.pages.de/~mandree/leafnode/ChangeLog.txt

Have fun,
Matthias Andree, Leafnode maintainer
