Just for completeness - excerpts from the official announcement which
came today: ;-)

***SNIP***
The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
of the Squid-4.5 release!

This release is a security and bug fix release resolving several issues
found in the prior Squid releases.

The major changes to be aware of:

* Bug 4253: ssl_bump prevents access to some web contents

...

* Redesign forward_max_tries to count TCP connection attempts

...

* Fix client_connection_mark ACL handling of clientless transactions

...

* Multiple NetDB behaviour updates

...

* The logformat code %>handshake is added

...

* Use pkg-config for detecting libxml2

...

  All users of Squid-4 with SSL-Bump functionality are urged to upgrade
as soon as possible.

  All other users of Squid-4 are encouraged to upgrade as time permits.

  All users of Squid-3 are encouraged to upgrade where possible.
***SNAP***

The last sentence says it all...

Best,
Matthias
