v2.1.2

2.1.2 (2024-08-12)

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 2.1.2 of the kerberos package!

Release Notes

MacOS builds reverted to use dynamic linking

We recently made runtime linking with system kerberos libraries (#165) the default for Linux and MacOS (#188) platforms due to the fact that system kerberos libraries often link against the system SSL library. However, Node.js ships with it's own SSL library, and having both loaded when they are different versions would crash the addon. Inadvertently this did not work as intended on MacOS, so we're reverting the change for that platform, other platforms are unaffected.

Bug Fixes

• NODE-6320: macos runtime linking name conflict with SSL (#193) (d382b56)

Documentation

• Changelog

We invite you to try the kerberos library immediately, and report any issues to the NODE project.
