Release v3.3.2 of Ktistec

This small release focused on two big deliverables: support for the latest version of Crystal and fixes for a few delivery issues.

Previous releases supported a wide range of Crystal Language versions, but ran into problems with version 1.17.x and beyond due to breaking changes in the standard library. This release works on 1.19.1 but also requires at least 1.19.1.

This release also fixes a bug, present since mid-2020 when HTTP signatures were first added, that resulted in signatures some fediverse servers wouldn't accept. Mastodon did, but with the proliferation of new ActivityPub servers, I increasingly encountered servers that did not.

Here's the full changelog:

Fixed

  • HTTP signature keyId now includes #main-key fragment.
  • IRI matching during dereferencing.
  • Broken down-detection for actors.

Changed

  • Fall back to Activity Streams context if supplied context is empty.
  • Deliver to personal inbox if delivery to shared inbox fails.

It's always good to stay up-to-date on releases. But if your platform doesn't yet support 1.19.1, I've also released a parallel branch that still runs on 1.16.3 and earlier. I'll maintain that branch for the next few releases to give everyone time to upgrade.
