Testing of either of these install methods is helpful. + +Be prepared to encounter bugs. As always, having a recent backup would +be wise. Please [report][2] any bugs that you find (after first [searching +Trac][3], of course!) + +If no show-stopping bugs are found in the next few days, this will +become the 2.7.0 release. + +There are a large number of changes in this release. See the [ChangeLog][4] +for a list of most of the major ones. You may like to focus your +testing on the new features in that list, as well as your normal usage. + +Changes since beta2 are: + * Fixed build failure on <= 10.6. + * Adjusted minimum compiler version for C++17. + * Using `-j1` for the benefit of ninja when `build.jobs` is 1 (instead + of no `-j` option), and setting `use_parallel_build no` changes the + value of `build.jobs` to 1 rather than omitting the `-j` option. + * Checking some more logs for implicit function declarations. + * Printing some more possibly helpful log locations when configure fails. + +[1]: https://github.com/macports/macports-base/releases/tag/v2.7.0-rc1 +[2]: https://trac.macports.org/newticket +[3]: https://trac.macports.org/search +[4]: https://github.com/macports/macports-base/blob/release-2.7/ChangeLog
