Release notes
Big changes in this release add support for the following new platforms:
- Debian buster
- Fedora 30
- RHEL 8
- (Much awaited!) Centos 8
@jubois has completed the first round of pcre2 rule updates. This is a very exciting change to the overall IDS engine in OSSEC and opens the platform up to much more complex (and faster!) search functionality.
Snapcraft.io universal linux packaging support (aka Snaps) allow for a universal OSSEC package across multiple linux distributions.
Last but not least, @ddpbsd has a long awaited fix for agentd/maild when ipv6 is disabled and/or hostnames are used instead of IPs in PR#1698. Thanks again to all our community contributors, and dedicated team members for their work on this release!
