We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 6.5. This is our 46th release. We remain proud of OpenBSD's record of more than twenty years with only two remote holes in the default install. As in our previous releases, 6.5 provides significant improvements, including new features, in nearly all areas of the system: - Improved hardware support, including: o clang(1) is now provided on mips64. o The default linker has been switched from the binutils bfd-based linker to lld on amd64 and i386. o octeon: Now the system automatically detects the number of available cores. However, manual setting of the numcores, or coremask, boot parameter is still needed to enable secondary cores. o octeon: It is now possible to use the root disk's DUID as the value of the rootdev boot parameter. o New octgpio(4) driver for the OCTEON GPIO controller. o New pvclock(4) driver for KVM paravirtual clock. o New ixl(4) driver for Intel Ethernet 700 series controller devices. o New abcrtc(4) driver for Abracon AB1805 real-time clock. o New imxsrc(4) driver for i.MX system reset controller. o New uxrcom(4) driver for Exar XR21V1410 USB serial adapters. o New mvgicp(4) driver for Marvell ARMADA 7K/8K GICP controller. o Support for QCA AR816x/AR817x in alc(4). o Support for isochronous transfers in xhci(4). o uaudio(4) has been replaced by a new driver which supports USB audio class v2.0. o Improved support for nmea(4) devices, providing altitude and ground speed values as sensors. - IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements: o Reduced usage of RTS frames improves overall throughput and latency. o Improved transmit rate selection in the iwm(4) driver. o Improved radio hardware calibration in the athn(4) driver. o The bwfm(4) driver now provides more accurate device configuration information to userland. o Added new routing socket message RTM_80211INFO to provide details of 802.11 interface state changes to dhclient(8) and route(8). o If an auto-join list is configured, wireless interfaces will no longer connect to unknown open networks by default. This behaviour must now be explicitly enabled by adding the empty network name to the auto-join list, e.g. ifconfig iwm0 join "", or join "" in hostname.if files. o The iwn(4) and iwm(4) drivers will now automatically try to connect to a network if the radio kill switch is toggled to allow radio transmissions while the interface is marked UP. - Generic network stack improvements: o New bpe(4) Backbone Provider Edge pseudo-device. o New mpip(4) MPLS IP layer 2 pseudowire driver. o MPLS encapsulation interfaces support configuration of alternative MPLS route domains. o The vlan(4) driver bypasses queue processing and outputs directly to the parent interface. o New per SAD counters visible via ipsecctl(8). o The bpf(4) filter drop mechanism has been extended to allow dropping without capturing packets, and use of the mechanism with tcpdump(8) as a filtering mechanism early in the device receive path. o ifconfig(8) gains txprio for controlling the encoding of priority in tunnel headers, and support in drivers including vlan(4), gre(4), gif(4), and etherip(4). - Installer improvements: o rdsetroot(8) (a build-time tool) is now available for general use. o During upgrades, some components of old releases are deleted. - Security improvements: o unveil(2) has been improved to understand and find covering unveil matches above the working directory of the running process for relative path accesses. As a result many programs now can use unveil in broad ways such as unveil("/", "r"). o unveil(2) no longer silently allows stat(2) and access(2) to work on any unveiled path component. o Now using unveil(2) in ospfd(8), ospf6d(8), rebound(8), getconf(1), kvm_mkdb(8), bdftopcf(1), Xserver(1), passwd(1), spamlogd(8), spamd(8), sensorsd(8), snmpd(8), htpasswd(1), ifstated(8). Some pledge(2) changes were required to accommodate unveil. o ROP mitigations in clang(1) have been improved, resulting in a significant decrease in the number of polymorphic ROP gadgets in binaries on i386/amd64. o RETGUARD performance and security has been improved in clang(1) by keeping data on registers instead of on the stack when possible, and lengthening the epilogue trapsled on amd64 to consume the rest of the cache line before the return. o RETGUARD replaces the stack protector on amd64 and arm64, since RETGUARD instruments every function that returns and provides better security properties than the traditional stack protector. - Routing daemons and other userland network improvements: o pcap-filter(3) can now filter on MPLS packets. o The routing priority for ospfd(8), ospf6d(8) and ripd(8) is now configurable. o ripd(8) is now pledged. o First release of unwind(8), a validating, recursive nameserver for 127.0.0.1. It is particularly suitable for laptops moving between networks. o ifconfig(8) gains sff and sffdump modes, displaying diagnostic information from fibre transceivers and similar modules. Currently ix(4) and ixl(4) are supported. o ldpd(8) now supports configuration of TCP MD5 for networks, not just specific neighbors. - bgpd(8) improvements: o bgpd(8) has now a real Adj-RIB-Out which improved overall memory usage. o Implemented a simple ruleset optimizer that merges filter rules that differ only by filter sets. o First release of OpenBGPD-portable. There is currently no FIB support in the portable version and some other features are also disabled. o The configuration of BGP MPLS VPN changed and the config needs to be adjusted if VPNs are used. o Added support for IPv6 BGP MPLS VPNs. o Implemented as-override in bgpd(8), a feature where the neighbor AS is replaced by the local AS in AS paths. o It is now possible to match multiple communities, ext-communities or large-communities per filter rule. o Added support for *, local-as and neighbor-as for ext-community matching and addition or removal. o Prevent bgpd(8) from being started more than once with the same config. o announce inet none no longer clears announce settings of other address families. o Removed potential for a spurious End-of-RIB marker being sent. o Fixed mrt table dumps and the route collector mode. o Improved throttling of initial routing table dump. o bgpd(8) terminates RIB table walks if bgpctl(8) terminates early. o Improved handling of communities, large-communities and ext-communities in bgpctl(8) o It is now possible to use neighbor group <name> to run bgpctl(8) commands against the specified group of neighbors: bgpctl neighbor group [clear|destroy|down|refresh|up] bgpctl show neighbor group [messages|terse|timers] bgpctl show rib neighbor group ... o bgpctl(8) can now add networks into BGP VPN tables by specifying the route distinguisher rd on the network command. o bgplg(8) and bgplgsh(8) can now filter on Origin Validation State and Extended Communities. o bgplgsh(8) can now [clear|destroy|down|refresh|up] and show groups of neighbors. - Assorted improvements: o kcov(4) gained support for KCOV_MODE_TRACE_CMP. o A 'video' promise was added to pledge(2). o The kern.witnesswatch sysctl(8) has been renamed to kern.witness.watch. o New pthread rwlock implementation improving latency of threaded applications. o kubsan(4) capable of detecting undefined behavior in the kernel. o signify -n option to zero date header in -z mode. o Remove OXTABS from default pty flags. o install(1) now always copies files safely (as with -S), avoiding race conditions. o syslog.conf(5) now supports program names containing dots and underscores. o tcpdump(8) already used privsep, pledge(2) and unveil(2) containment. It now also drops root privileges completely (switching to a reserved uid). o The multi-threaded performance of malloc(3) has been improved. o malloc(3) now uses sysctl(2) to get its settings, making it respect the system-wide settings in chroots as well. o Various improvements to the join command. o Work has started on a ISC-licensed rsync-compatible program called OpenRSYNC. In this release it has basic functionality such as -a, --delete, but lacks --exclude. Work will continue. o New Spleen font 8x16, 12x24, 16x32 and 32x64 variants added and enabled in wsfont, along with font selection logic to allow selecting larger fonts when available at runtime in rasops(9). - OpenSMTPD 6.5.0 o New Features - Added the new matching criteria "from rdns" to smtpd.conf(5) to allow matching of sessions based on the reverse DNS of the client. - Added regex(3) support to table lookups in smtpd.conf(5). - LibreSSL 2.9.1 o API and Documentation Enhancements - CRYPTO_LOCK is now automatically initialized, with the legacy callbacks stubbed for compatibility. - Added the SM3 hash function from the Chinese standard GB/T 32905-2016. - Added the SM4 block cipher from the Chinese standard GB/T 32907-2016. - Added more OPENSSL_NO_* macros for compatibility with OpenSSL. - Partial port of the OpenSSL EC_KEY_METHOD API for use by OpenSSH. - Implemented further missing OpenSSL 1.1 API. - Added support for XChaCha20 and XChaCha20-Poly1305. - Added support for AES key wrap constructions via the EVP interface. o Compatibility Changes - Added pbkdf2 key derivation support to openssl(1) enc. - Changed the default digest type of openssl(1) enc to sha256. - Changed the default digest type of openssl(1) dgst to sha256. - Changed the default digest type of openssl(1) x509 -fingerprint to sha256. - Changed the default digest type of openssl(1) crl -fingerprint to sha256. o Testing and Proactive Security - Added extensive interoperability tests between LibreSSL and OpenSSL 1.0 and 1.1. - Added additional Wycheproof tests and related bug fixes. o Internal Improvements - Simplified sigalgs option processing and handshake signing algorithm selection. - Added the ability to use the RSA PSS algorithm for handshake signatures. - Added bn_rand_interval() and use it in code needing ranges of random bn values. - Added functionality to derive early, handshake, and application secrets as per RFC8446. - Added handshake state machine from RFC8446. - Removed some ASN.1 related code from libcrypto that had not been used since around 2000. - Unexported internal symbols and internalized more record layer structs. - Removed SHA224 based handshake signatures from consideration for use in a TLS 1.2 handshake. o Portable Improvements - Added support for assembly optimizations on 32-bit ARM ELF targets. - Added support for assembly optimizations on Mingw-w64 targets. - Improved Android compatibility o Bug Fixes - Improved protection against timing side channels in ECDSA signature generation. - Coordinate blinding was added to some elliptic curves. This is the last bit of the work by Brumley et al. to protect against the Portsmash vulnerability. - Ensure transcript handshake is always freed with TLS 1.2. - OpenSSH 8.0 o New Features - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in PKCS#11 tokens. - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant key exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU Prime 4591^761 and X25519. - ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits, following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a 128-bit equivalent symmetric security level. - ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of the PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config; bz#2974 - sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect; bz#2960 - ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user to paste a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and have the client do the comparison for you. - ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the certificate serial number. - scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on the scp and sftp command-lines. - ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v" command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass verbose flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper started from ssh-agent. - ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in an agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification. - sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension that replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT operation but does not follow symlinks. bz#2067 - sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request they do not follow symlinks. - sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use it in decision-making. bz#2741 - sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate Matches in same pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname canonicalisation be enabled. bz#2906 - sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch commands; bz#2926 - ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using "ssh-keygen -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that the CA used to sign the cert. o Bugfixes - sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides a more restrictive default. - sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount is enabled. - sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart. Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path. - ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when ProxyCommand=- was in use. - sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt to write to stderr after their parent processes have exited; bz#2071 - ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout and ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the first were ignoring the requested timeout; bz#2918 - ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were found; bz#2903 - scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without terminal control sequences; bz#2434 - sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed. bz#2757 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN handling at initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN could be skipped in some cases, particularly on devices with integrated PIN readers. This would lead to an inability to retrieve keys from these tokens. bz#2652 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the C_SignInit operation. bz#2638 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that local configuration does not apply to jump hosts. - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes public keys, not private. - ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners, allowing \r characters only immediately before

. - Various: fix a number of memory leaks, including bz#2942 and bz#2938 - scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits. Account for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the schedule on which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial burst of traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits; bz#2927 - sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial key eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it is present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for buggy these clients. bz#2929 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options may accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo. bz#2935 - ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK; bz#2936 - sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of the default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured hostkey is still an error, and failure to load any host key is still fatal. pr/103 - ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output from interfering with session output. - ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the connection; bz#2912 - sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 siganture types were specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys as the monitor checks only the base key (not the signature algorithm) type against *AcceptedKeyTypes. bz#2746 - ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use. - Mandoc 1.14.5 o Improved POSIX compliance in apropos(1) by accepting case-insensitive extended regular expressions by default. o New -O tag output option to open a page at the definition of a term. o Many tbl(7) improvements: line drawing, spanning, horizontal and vertical alignment in HTML output, improved column width calculations in terminal output, use of box drawing characters in UTF-8 output. o Much better HTML output, in particular with respect to paragraphs, line breaks, and vertical spacing in tagged lists. Tooltips are now implemented in pure CSS, the title attribute is no longer abused. - Xenocara o Xorg(1), the X window server, is no longer installed setuid. xenodm(1) should be used to start X. o The radeonsi Mesa driver is now included for hardware acceleration on Southern Islands and Sea Islands radeondrm(4) devices. - Ports and packages: o C++ ports for non-clang architectures are now compiled with ports gcc, so that more packages can be provided. o Pre-built packages are available for the following architectures on the day of release: - aarch64 (arm64): 9654 - amd64: 10602 - i386: 10535 o Packages for the following architectures will be made available as their builds complete: - arm - mips64 - mips64el - powerpc - sparc64 - Some highlights: o AFL 2.52b o Mozilla Thunderbird 60.6.1 o Asterisk 16.2.1 o Mutt 1.11.4 and NeoMutt 20180716 o Audacity 2.3.1 o Node.js 10.15.0 o CMake 3.10.2 o OCaml 4.07.1 o Chromium 73.0.3683.86 o OpenLDAP 2.3.43 and 2.4.47 o Emacs 26.1 o PHP 7.1.28, 7.2.17 and 7.3.4 o FFmpeg 4.1.3 o Postfix 3.3.3 and 3.4.20190106 o GCC 4.9.4 and 8.3.0 o PostgreSQL 11.2 o GHC 8.2.2 o Python 2.7.16 and 3.6.8 o GNOME 3.30.2.1 o R 3.5.3 o Go 1.12.1 o Ruby 2.4.6, 2.5.5 and 2.6.2 o Groff 1.22.4 o Rust 1.33.0 o JDK 8u202 and 11.0.2+9-3 o Sendmail 8.16.0.41 o LLVM/Clang 7.0.1 o SQLite3 3.27.2 o LibreOffice 6.2.2.2 o Sudo 1.8.27 o Lua 5.1.5, 5.2.4 and 5.3.5 o Suricata 4.1.3 o MariaDB 10.0.38 o Tcl/Tk 8.5.19 and 8.6.8 o Mono 5.18.1.0 o TeX Live 2018 o Mozilla Firefox 66.0.2 and o Vim 8.1.1048 and Neovim 0.3.4 ESR 60.6.1 o Xfce 4.12 - As usual, steady improvements in manual pages and other documentation. - The system includes the following major components from outside suppliers: o Xenocara (based on X.Org 7.7 with xserver 1.19.7 + patches, freetype 2.9.1, fontconfig 2.12.4, Mesa 18.3.5, xterm 344, xkeyboard-config 2.20 and more) o LLVM/Clang 7.0.1 (+ patches) o GCC 4.2.1 (+ patches) and 3.3.6 (+ patches) o Perl 5.28.1 (+ patches) o NSD 4.1.27 o Unbound 1.9.1 o Ncurses 5.7 o Binutils 2.17 (+ patches) o Gdb 6.3 (+ patches) o Awk Aug 10, 2011 version o Expat 2.2.6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - SECURITY AND ERRATA -------------------------------------------------- We provide patches for known security threats and other important issues discovered after each release. Our continued research into security means we will find new security problems -- and we always provide patches as soon as possible. Therefore, we advise regular visits to https://www.OpenBSD.org/security.html and https://www.OpenBSD.org/errata.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - MAILING LISTS AND FAQ ------------------------------------------------ Mailing lists are an important means of communication among users and developers of OpenBSD. For information on OpenBSD mailing lists, please see: https://www.OpenBSD.org/mail.html You are also encouraged to read the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) at: https://www.OpenBSD.org/faq/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - DONATIONS ------------------------------------------------------------ The OpenBSD Project is a volunteer-driven software group funded by donations. Besides OpenBSD itself, we also develop important software like OpenSSH, LibreSSL, OpenNTPD, OpenSMTPD, the ubiquitous pf packet filter, the quality work of our ports development process, and many others. This ecosystem is all handled under the same funding umbrella. We hope our quality software will result in contributions that maintain our build/development infrastructure, pay our electrical/internet costs, and allow us to continue operating very productive developer hackathon events. All of our developers strongly urge you to donate and support our future efforts. Donations to the project are highly appreciated, and are described in more detail at: https://www.OpenBSD.org/donations.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - OPENBSD FOUNDATION --------------------------------------------------- For those unable to make their contributions as straightforward gifts, the OpenBSD Foundation (http://www.openbsdfoundation.org) is a Canadian not-for-profit corporation that can accept larger contributions and issue receipts. In some situations, their receipt may qualify as a business expense write-off, so this is certainly a consideration for some organizations or businesses. There may also be exposure benefits since the Foundation may be interested in participating in press releases. In turn, the Foundation then uses these contributions to assist OpenBSD's infrastructure needs. Contact the foundation directors at directors@openbsdfoundation.org for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - HTTP/HTTPS INSTALLS -------------------------------------------------- OpenBSD can be easily installed via HTTP/HTTPS downloads. Typically you need a single small piece of boot media (e.g., a USB flash drive) and then the rest of the files can be installed from a number of locations, including directly off the Internet. Follow this simple set of instructions to ensure that you find all of the documentation you will need while performing an install via HTTP/HTTPS. 1) Read either of the following two files for a list of HTTP/HTTPS mirrors which provide OpenBSD, then choose one near you: https://www.OpenBSD.org/ftp.html https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/ftplist As of May 1, 2019, the following HTTP/HTTPS mirror sites have the 6.5 release: https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Global https://ftp.eu.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Stockholm, Sweden https://ftp.hostserver.de/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Frankfurt, Germany http://ftp.bytemine.net/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Oldenburg, Germany https://ftp.fr.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Paris, France https://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Brisbane, Australia https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ CO, USA https://ftp5.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ CA, USA https://mirror.esc7.net/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ TX, USA https://openbsd.cs.toronto.edu/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Toronto, Canada https://cloudflare.cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Global https://fastly.cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Global The release is also available at the master site: https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ Alberta, Canada However it is strongly suggested you use a mirror. Other mirror sites may take a day or two to update. 2) Connect to that HTTP/HTTPS mirror site and go into the directory pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ which contains these files and directories. This is a list of what you will see: ANNOUNCEMENT arm64/ luna88k/ sgi/ README armv7/ macppc/ sparc64/ SHA256 hppa/ octeon/ src.tar.gz SHA256.sig i386/ packages/ sys.tar.gz alpha/ landisk/ ports.tar.gz xenocara.tar.gz amd64/ loongson/ root.mail It is quite likely that you will want at LEAST the following files which apply to all the architectures OpenBSD supports. README - generic README root.mail - a copy of root's mail at initial login. (This is really worthwhile reading). 3) Read the README file. It is short, and a quick read will make sure you understand what else you need to fetch. 4) Next, go into the directory that applies to your architecture, for example, amd64. This is a list of what you will see: BOOTIA32.EFI* bsd* floppy65.fs pxeboot* BOOTX64.EFI* bsd.mp* game65.tgz xbase65.tgz BUILDINFO bsd.rd* index.txt xfont65.tgz INSTALL.amd64 cd65.iso install65.fs xserv65.tgz SHA256 cdboot* install65.iso xshare65.tgz SHA256.sig cdbr* man65.tgz base65.tgz comp65.tgz miniroot65.fs If you are new to OpenBSD, fetch _at least_ the file INSTALL.amd64 and install65.iso. The install65.iso file (roughly 407MB in size) is a one-step ISO-format install CD image which contains the various *.tgz files so you do not need to fetch them separately. If you prefer to use a USB flash drive, fetch install65.fs and follow the instructions in INSTALL.amd64. 5) If you are an expert, follow the instructions in the file called README; otherwise, use the more complete instructions in the file called INSTALL.amd64. INSTALL.amd64 may tell you that you need to fetch other files. 6) Just in case, take a peek at: https://www.OpenBSD.org/errata.html This is the page where we talk about the mistakes we made while creating the 6.5 release, or the significant bugs we fixed post-release which we think our users should have fixes for. Patches and workarounds are clearly described there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - X.ORG FOR MOST ARCHITECTURES ----------------------------------------- X.Org has been integrated more closely into the system. This release contains X.Org 7.7. Most of our architectures ship with X.Org, including amd64, sparc64 and macppc. During installation, you can install X.Org quite easily. Be sure to try out xenodm(1), our new, simplified X11 display manager forked from xdm(1). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - PACKAGES AND PORTS --------------------------------------------------- Many third party software applications have been ported to OpenBSD and can be installed as pre-compiled binary packages on the various OpenBSD architectures. Please see https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html for more information on working with packages and ports. Note: a few popular ports, e.g., NSD, Unbound, and several X applications, come standard with OpenBSD and do not need to be installed separately. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - SYSTEM SOURCE CODE --------------------------------------------------- The source code for all four subsystems can be found in the pub/OpenBSD/6.5/ directory: xenocara.tar.gz ports.tar.gz src.tar.gz sys.tar.gz The README (https://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.5/README) file explains how to deal with these source files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - THANKS --------------------------------------------------------------- Ports tree and package building by Pierre-Emmanuel Andre, Landry Breuil, Visa Hankala, Stuart Henderson, Peter Hessler, and Christian Weisgerber. Base and X system builds by Kenji Aoyama, Theo de Raadt, and Visa Hankala. We would like to thank all of the people who sent in bug reports, bug fixes, donation cheques, and hardware that we use. We would also like to thank those who bought our previous CD sets. Those who did not support us financially have still helped us with our goal of improving the quality of the software.
