[squid-users] Squid 3.2.10 is available

The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-3.2.10 release!

This release is a bug fix release resolving several crashes and build
issues found in the prior releases.

  Please note that with 3.3 series being STABLE the 3.2 series is
  now officially deprecated. There are no longer any guaranteed of
  future 3.2 releases.

The major changes to be aware of in this release:

* running "squid -k reconfigure" drops rock cache

Squid would happly run and report information about rock caches
until reconfigure. After which it would cease reporting the rock
caches existence, but continue to use it.

* multiple build issues on GNU Hurd, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD

GNU Hurd would fail to build with MAP_NORESERVE errors.
BSD systems would fail to build with enter_suid/leave_suid errors.
BSD systems were also unable to build SASL or LDAP helpers.

* crashes in ssl_crtd and basic_ncsa_auth helpers

ssl_crtd on ARM systems would crash on startup.
basic_ncsa_auth build against recent glibc would crash during first
authentication process validating credentials.

* HTTP/1.1 compliance with no-cache="params" , private="params"

Since caching was enabled for traffic containing Cache-Control:no-cache
Squid has been incorrectly caching traffic where that control
was passed a list of headers. Squid is now reverted to the old
behaviour when passed no-cache or private with parameters.

  See the ChangeLog for the full list of changes in this and earlier
  releases.

  Users of Squid-3.2 with error page language negotiation are urged
  to upgrade to this release or Squid-3.3.3 as soon as possible.

  All users of Squid-3.2 are encouraged to upgrade to the 3.3 series
  stable release as soon as possible.

Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing upgrade to a new
version of Squid. It will audit your configuration files and report
any identifiable issues the new release will have in your installation
before you "press go". We are still removing the infamous "Bungled
Config" halting points and adding checks, so if something is not
identified please report it.

Please refer to the release notes at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v3/3.2/RELEASENOTES.html
when you are ready to make the switch to Squid-3.2

Upgrade tip:
   "squid -k parse" is starting to display even more
    useful hints about squid.conf changes.
