zcashd 5.9.0 is a upkeep launch that updates dependencies and units a brand new end-of-service top to make sure continuity of providers. (Finish-of-service data is accessible right here.) All customers are inspired to improve instantly.
Probably the most notable change is that the license documentation has been up to date to account for the `orchard` crate now being licensed beneath “MIT OR Apache-2.0.”
Platform Help
– Debian 11 (Bookworm) is now a Tier 1 platform.
– Intel macOS shall be formally downgraded to a Tier 3 platform within the subsequent launch. Beforehand it has informally been at each Tier 1 (as a result of builds and assessments have been run in CI) and Tier 3 (as a result of no packages have been supplied). Nonetheless, we’re presently unable to replace the Clang and Rust compilers on account of there being no Clang launch constructed for Intel macOS from LLVM 16 onwards. Mixed with the truth that the Intel Macbook was discontinued in 2021, this determination means that we are going to not be constructing `zcashd` natively on Intel macOS in CI for testing functions. We won’t be eradicating construct system assist (so builds should still perform, and neighborhood patches to repair points are welcomed).
