[ldm-users] LDM 6.11.5 released

Hi,

Version 6.11.5 of the
LDM<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-6.11.5/index.html>
has
been released. This version doesn't have the "libxml2" package bundled-in;
consequently, that package must be installed on the host system before the
LDM package can be built. If you're using version 6.11.4 of the LDM, have
not encountered any problems with it, and don't care which "libxml2"
package the LDM uses, then there's no need to upgrade to LDM 6.11.5.

The "libxml2" package was removed from the LDM distribution because 1) it's
become ubiquitous; 2) older versions of it have security issues; 3)
eliminating it allows it to be independently upgraded; and 4) eliminating
it approximately halves the size of the distribution and the time it takes
to build. Please report any problems caused by this removal to
support-ldm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

This version of the LDM also has some minor code improvements. For details,
please see the file CHANGE_LOG on this version's
homepage<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-6.11.5/CHANGE_LOG>
or
in the top-level source-directory of the distribution.

This version can be downloaded at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/ldm.
