[knot-dns-users] Knot DNS 1.6.0-rc2 (release candidate)

Hello list! The second release candidate of Knot DNS 1.6.0 by CZ.NIC Labs is here! The update contains just a few changes, which improve the new persistent slave zones timers feature. The database for the zone timers was being opened before the privileges were dropped and UID/GID changed. As a result, the database could not be reopened after invoking the "knotc reload" command and updated timers could not be written into the database. This problem is resolved now. If you are updating from -rc1, you will need to fix the database ownership to match your knotd user. We also increased the maximal size of the database from 10 MB to 100 MB. This should be enough for thousands of slave zones. And finally, we improved a logging of errors related to database operations. If you have a time to try the new release candidate, please, do so. The final release will probably slip a few days, but it is still scheduled for the next week.
