Dear CFEngine community,

today we are proudly releasing the fifth maintainance update from our
stable branch, CFEngine 3.6.5. A fair amount of bugfixes made it in this
release, plus the bigger change of having a separate package specifically
tuned for RHEL7. Read more on our blog:

http://cfengine.com/company/blog-detail/cfengine-3-6-5-now-available-red-hat-7-agent-performance/

The exhaustive list of changes is:

Features:
- Introduced "systemd" hard class. (Redmine #6995)
- Added paths to dtrace, zfs and zpool on FreeBSD in masterfiles.

Bug fixes:
- Fixed build error on certain RHEL5 and SLES10 setups. (Redmine #6841)
- Fixed a bug which caused dangling symlinks not to be removed.
(Redmine #6582)
- Fixed data_readstringarrayidx function not preserving the order of the
array it's producing. (Redmine #6920)
- Fixed a bug which sometimes caused CFEngine to kill the wrong daemon
if both the host and a container inside the host were running
CFEngine. (Redmine #6906)
- Made sure the rm_rf_depth bundle also deletes the base directory.
(Redmine #7009)
- Fixed monitord reporting wrongly on open ports. (Redmine #6926)
- Skip adding the class when its name is longer than 1024 characters.
Fixed core dump when the name is too large. (Redmine #7013)
- Fixed detection of stopped process on Solaris. (Redmine #6946)
- Fixed infinite loop (Redmine #6992) plus a couple more minor
bugs in edit_xml promises.
