The LedgerSMB development team is happy to announce yet another new
version of its open source ERP and accounting application. This release
contains a fix for the change in Perl 5.24 which no longer includes '.'
in @INC. Some distributions have backported this change to earlier Perl
versions (as it is security fix CVE-2016-1238). LedgerSMB now both works
correctly without '.' on @INC and actively removes '.' from @INC on any
Perl version, effectively backporting this security fix.
