This is a bugfix release.

upgrade from ipsec-tools-cvs

Previous release could cause loss of packages during upgrade if there was a package that was removed, for example ipsec-tools-cvs. This was fixed in this release.

apk-tools fixes

  • fix apk_glob where db was uncompressed
  • fix apk_add to not try install 2 versions of same package when installing package by path.

ipp2p rollback

the xtables-addons was reported to not work at all with bittorent atleast. This alpine release have the old ipp2p and old iptables.

ACF fixes

  • new version of plot.
  • the realtime network graph fixes for firefox.
  • log tail fixes for firefox.

quagga fix

Quagga 0.99.11 is broken. Someone reported checksum algorithm was broken and bgp routes got mysteriously lost. A patch from quagga git that reverted the checksum algorithm which seems to correct the problem was applied.
