Hi

We just released v36. This contains an important fix for a
use-after-close bug that can expose arbitrary file-descriptors of the
broker to clients, introduced in v34. Everyone is recommended to
upgrade!

https://github.com/bus1/dbus-broker/releases/tag/v36

## CHANGES WITH 36:

* Fix possible file-descriptor use-after-close, which can lead to
broker termination or disclosure of internal file-desciptors to
clients.

* Be more verbose about activation failures and include suitable
information in related log messages.

* New Meson build option `tests` allows installing tests as part
of the distribution into `<prefix>/lib/dbus-broker/tests`. This
is not recommended for production environments.

* Many updates to the test suite and packing of the upstream project.
