2.1.3 is now released. IS_ALPHA is back to 1, and the development
source code is now set for 2.2.0.

Over a year's work in this release. Thanks to everyone involved. Only
happens at all because of the team effort.

Which menu changes do you mean?

There are rearrangements of popup menu code in my track-panel-refactor
branch, but I don't mean to do anything about reorganizing the toolbar
menus. I did push something to my origin for toolbar menu reorganization,
but that's old now, I consider it abandoned.

However track-panel-refactor is not for the very near future. What I want
to do first is address naked-news and various minor bugs. I will do that
very soon.

Then I want tol work on the exception safety project, and with that in
place, deal with disk exhaustion by throwing exceptions. This relates to
bug 437. Examining how to address that bug right had all sorts of
incidental fallout.

I have nothing to say about library upgrades.

I have not looked at all of the libs, but PortAudio, libflac and libsndfile
seem reasonable choices.

PortAudio seem not to have merged changes which might have
really helped us (a PortAudio API for pulse, and hotplug support)
but there seem to have been a number of WASAPI fixes:
https://app.assembla.com/spaces/portaudio/git/commits/list .

Updating libsndfile gives us some good security fixes, among
others:

Version 1.0.27 (2016-06-19)
* Fix an SF_INFO seekable flag regression introduced in 1.0.26.
* Fix potential infinite loops on malformed input files.
* Add string metadata read/write for CAF and RF64.
* Add handling of CUE chunks.
* Fix enaian-ness issues in PAF files.
* Minor bug fixes and improvements.

Version 1.0.26 (2015-11-22)
* Fix for CVE-2014-9496, SD2 buffer read overflow.
* Fix for CVE-2014-9756, file_io.c divide by zero.
* Fix for CVE-2015-7805, AIFF heap write overflow.
* Add support for ALAC encoder in a CAF container.
* Add support for Cart chunks in WAV files.
* Minor bug fixes and improvements.

Version 1.0.25 (2011-07-13)
* Fix for Secunia Advisory SA45125, heap overflow in PAF file handler.
* Accept broken WAV files with blockalign == 0.
* Minor bug fixes and improvements.

Not my call anymore :-) [translation: Go ahead!].
I'd personally rather you didn't push your menu changes though, as I
have menu rearrangement to go in too, but branch 'various' is nice, and
I'd like to see it in. Someone needs to do a tally of what library
upgrades are likely for 2.2.0 too, as they are risky and we like to get
them in early.

Congratulations on the new release milestone. Moving Audacity forward
takes a lot of teamwork, and I think you should all be patted on the back.

Cheers, David Timms (Fedora maintainer).

Try:
tar -xJf audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz

I'm guessing SUSE has a version of tar that does not auto detect .xz
http://askubuntu.com/questions/92328/how-do-i-uncompress-a-tarball-that-uses-xz

On Ubuntu I'm seeing everything I expect in the file with tar -xvf.
Ditto when I open it in 7zip in Windows.

There's something wrong with
https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz
tar -xf audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz
xz: (stdin): File format not recognized
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar -xf audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz
xz: (stdin): File format not recognized
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
https://github.com/audacity/audacity/archive/Audacity-2.1.3.tar.gz
That works.
Best regards
Dave

I just opened audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz as html and it's full of the
fosshub download page. Try:
wget https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/audacity-minsrc-2.1.3.tar.xz
I can only download the proper file in Firefox by clicking save file, I
normally use a download manager downthemall, that also ends up with the
html filled xz.
The problem is with fosshub.
Anyway the github tarball is fine.
Best regards
Dave
