Attention: the previous release, 0.19.1, was intended as a bug-fix-only release but was cut from the wrong branch and as a result included functionality not intended for that release (eg service arguments). That functionality is not included in this release. If relying on that functionality, do not upgrade to 0.19.2 and please wait for either 0.19.3 or the 0.20 release.

This beta release contains minor bugfixes compared to the prior release. It does not contain various feature changes that be released in version 0.20.0 in due course.

Thanks to current sponsors: Paweł Zmarzły (pzmarzly), Wesley Moore (wezm), M. Herdiansyah (konimex), Coleman McFarland (dontlaugh), q66, saolof, and private sponsors.

Fixes:

• Fix bad formatting of line number in error message when a service fails to load (Jami Kettunen).
• Fix endianness issue leading to errors from dinitctl for some commands on big-endian systems (q66).
• Fix dinitcheck not being able to find dependency directories ("waits-for.d" etc) if specified via relative path.
• Dependency directories (as specified by "waits-for.d" and similar) are, if relative, now resolved against the file containing the setting, rather than the base service description file. It is recommended to use absolute paths for all other applicable settings.
