Software update: Gallery 2.1.1a

Gallery has been updated to version 2.1.1a. Gallery is an advanced program written in PHP for creating online photo albums. For example, unlike JAlbum, for example, the photos are stored in a database and a web server is needed to run the whole thing. Others features for example, the Photo Management option that can automatically create thumbnails, rotate and resize photos, it is possible to assign read and/or write permissions to the albums and there are numerous modules to further expand the possibilities. The release notes of version 2.1.1a look like this:

Gallery 2.1.1 released
This bugfix release resolves problems with Postgres7, Oracle and DB2. It also includes minor bugfixes for the imageblock module and fixes some very rare permission issues in the toolkit (archiveupload, dcraw, ffmpeg, imagemagick, netpbm, zipcart) modules. New in this release is the Gallery2 Preinstaller. This nifty tool is a tiny download that will download and unpack Gallery2 on your server for you — saving you tons of download and upload time. This is very useful if you’re using ftp. Download 2.1.1 now and if you have problems, please report them in the Gallery 2 forums!

Note: Due to a packaging issue, the imageblock module was falsely reporting an integrity error. This is ok — but we’ve released 2.1.1a packages to fix this problem for future downloads. 2.1.1a is exactly the same as 2.1.1 with this one issue fixed.[break]
