Netatalk 4.0.2

Netatalk 4.0.2 is available!

The Netatalk team is proud to announce the latest release in the Netatalk 4.0 release series.

In this release version, the theme is testing. The integration tests has been strengthened, while the afptest test suite that was previously housed in a separate repository has been bundled with Netatalk proper.

Note that as a result, the last CNID backend will once again allow write operations when the Netatalk package is compiled with -Dwith-tests=true. This was the behavior of the last backend in Netatalk 2 and earlier. If you want the last backend to be read-only, please build the package without tests.

All users of the 4.0 release series are recommended to upgrade to Netatalk 4.0.2.
