This is the first release of 2025 and comes with an important fix to dunstify. With the roll out of libnotify v0.8.4, older version of dunstify started to not compile or crash when using the -r flag.

If your distribution has updated libnotify, you should update dunstify as soon as possible to resolve these issues.

Other changes include the addition of three dbus signals, the --category option for dunstify, the use of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for reproducible builds.

For more details take a look at the changelog for all the fixes and improvements.
