The Dune team is pleased to announce the release of dune 3.23.1.

This is a patch release consisting of the following bug fixes.

If you encounter a problem with this release, please report it in our issue
tracker.

Fixed

  • Fix the menhir opam dependency injection introduced in 3.23. Dune now only fills in the lower bound {>= "20180523"} on an existing user-declared menhir dependency; it no longer adds menhir as a new dependency to packages that did not declare it themselves. (#14434, fixes #14428, @robinbb)
  • Gate the dune version-bound deduplication in generated opam files (introduced in 3.23) on (lang dune 3.23). Projects at earlier lang versions get the prior And [...] shape — e.g.
    {>= "3.17" & >= "3.20"} — restoring 3.22 behaviour and avoiding a silent change to opam output on dune-binary upgrade. (#14436, @robinbb)
  • Preserve library order when building a shared jsoo standalone runtime. (#14438, @vouillon)
  • Fix the fallback to the secondary compiler, allowing recovering of support for packages with upper bounds on OCaml less than 4.14. Packages depending on dune 3.23.1 or later and with an upper bound on the OCaml compiler that is less than 4.14, will now be able to use the latest dune, but dune will be built with the secondary compiler at version 4.14. (#14443, @Alizter)
  • Fix the bootstrap on NetBSD by including <sys/wait.h> in lev_stubs.c, matching the existing FreeBSD/OpenBSD guard. (#14512, fixes #14484, @0-wiz-0)
