Dear All,

We have an emergency release, version 0.3.1 of getdns. This release
fixes a single bug which will cause getdns to hang on querying RR
types with repeating final rdata fields.

The previous release contained a fix that would allow for empty rdata
fields. This is the case with the "type bitmap" rdata field with NSEC3
RRs on empty non terminals. Parsing that properly is essential for
sound DNSSEC validation. Unfortunately the fix introduced a new bug,
which allowed repeating rdata fields to be empty too. Parsing such RR
types would lead to an infinite list of empty rdata fields. This
emergency release has this fixed.

We apologize our current test suite did not catch this problem. We
will address this by extending our test coverage for all supported RR
types before next release.

We urgently advise to update the previous version to v0.3.1 immediately.
