Please hold a sec. I guess we broke the Oracle DBD driver. Details to follow.
Release is published but not announced (stuck on release automation issues).
I'm not sure what's best at this stage, but I think the version number
is burnt so we should do a followup release (if needed). The oracle
changes were just lifted from elsewhere which was indicated in the
original report.
I am inclined to continue announcing rather than leaving in limbo.
If the Oracle DBD driver is broken and this is verifies, then this is a
regression. It's fine to retire a release before it has been announced,
fix the bug, roll a new one and update the release notes and
announcement to state that the apr-util-1.6.4 was retired. We can remove
the artefacts from the servers and the archive to prevent users from
inadvertently downloading it.
I don't think we should release a version with a known regression.
