The first maintenance release of the 5.10 series of NAV is now out!
The source code is available for download at GitHub [1].
New packages for Debian 10 (Buster) and 11 (Bullseye) are available in our APT repository [2] as usual. We haven't started building packages for Debian 12 (Bookworm) yet, as NAV does not yet support running under Python 3.11.
Do note that 5.10 is the **last series we will package for Debian 10** (not 11, as previous announcements read), as NAV 5.11 will drop support for Python versions older than 3.9.
Please be extra aware of config file changes. Look out for `*.dpkg-dist` files in `/etc/nav` and make sure to update your running config.
Fixed =====
- Fix Machine Tracker DNS search crashing from exhausting all available file descriptors (#2669) - ARP records of unreachable devices are now closed by navclean cron job at configurable expiry intervals, rather than immediately as a response to a short ICMP packet loss (#2913) - Palo Alto API XML responses are now parsed based on keys instead of indexes (#2924)
Release notes =============
We always advise you to have a look at NAV's accompanying release notes [3] before upgrading.
Happy NAVing everyone!
