Summary
AI summaryRemoved ineffective --enable-strict and --enable-strict-options configure flags.
Full changelog
Bugfixes:
- using
--dns server ...style configs on Windows with win-dco would
lead to erroneously enabling "DnsSecValidationRequired : True", possibly
breaking VPN DNS resolution. Pushing--dns server ... dnssec no
can be used as a workaround until clients can be updated.
(Github: openvpn#1024) - correct comments in the
--dns-up-downplatform scripts relating to
dns_server_..._dnssecvalues. - fix release-only build of pkcs11-helper vcpkg port, do not try to
install files from debug build. - mbedTLS builds will now provide a proper error message if a
tls-groupstatement with no valid groups is encountered
(used to run into SSL handshake failure later on). --enable-strictand--enable-strict-optionsconfigure flags have
been removed (because they did not actually do anything anymore)
