The dune team is pleased to announce the bug fix release of Dune 1.6.3. Normally, we don’t bother announcing all bug fix releases, but this one contains quite a few fixes. I’d like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to upgrade. Cheers.

1.6.3 (08/01/2019)

  • Fix merlin handling of private module visibility (#1653 @bobot)

  • skip directories when looking up programs in the PATH (#1628, fixes
    #1616, @jeremiedimino)

  • Fix preprocessing for libraries with (include_subdirs ..) (#1624, fix #1626,

    (#1632, fix #1617, @rgrinberg)

  • When executing actions, open files lazily and close them as soon as
    possible in order to reduce the maximum number of file descriptors
