Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] bash: Version bump. 5.2.37 -> 5.3
Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2025 18:27:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250707162759.4163708-1-christian.melki@t2data.com> (raw)
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2025-07/msg00005.html
* Rearrange options, set a few options to their default to close
down configure diff. Also pin down a couple of configure aliases that
look like they were different options, but aren't.
* Introduce new security option to scramble mem at free.
* License diff, year update.
