14 DAY TRIAL // FreeBSD, an operating system for x86, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, PC-98 and UltraSPARC architectures, is now at version 8.4 RC1.
The developers of FreeBSD have moved forward with their distribution and have released the first Release Candidate. Only one change has been underlined in the new version.
“There was an accidental breakage in the OpenSSL ABI in the BETA1 build that was fixed before this RC build. Applications built against OpenSSL may need to be rebuilt after upgrading to 8.4-RC1 from 8.4-BETA1,” stated FreeBSD's Glen Barber.
More details about this release can be found in the official announcement.
