4.15.5
Fixed a crash in import playlist.
Linux: I have resolved issues with library versioning (ICU, avformat, avutil), which will make the Debian release more robust across different distributions. There are still other libraries that may have different versions across different distributions that will require building BDJ4 from source on Linux. If you have a particular distribution that you want BDJ4 to run on, please let me know . I can help with the build process or create a one-time release.
Linux: Added a Debian 13 installer.
MacOS: With the library versioning fix, I no longer need to build and ship the ICU library for MacOS. The MacOS pre-install (v22) and run-installer (v4) scripts have been updated and can be downloaded from sourceforge.net .
Automated tests were run on:
MacOS users, be sure to run the version 22 pre-install script.
Linux users, be sure to run the version 12 pre-install script.
