I'm pleased to announce the next bugfix release in the emc 2.3 series,
emc 2.3.5. A number of problems in earlier releases have been fixed.
The new packages are now available for Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" in the
package repositories. Packages for Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake" should
follow within the next few days. If you have already installed an
earlier 2.3.x version of emc, this will be offered as an update.
If you still have 2.2.8 or earlier installed, 2.3.5 will not
be available as an automatic upgrade. For more information and
installation/upgrade instructions, please see
the wiki
git users can get this release by checking out the v2.3.5 tag (or follow
bugfixes on v2_3_branch). Source tarballs are available from the
package repository:

Many thanks to the people who have contributed bugfixes for this
release.
