3.4.0
- When setting envvar DOWNLOAD_STATIC_LIBV8=1 on Linux at build-time, the
configure script automatically downloads a static libv8, instead of looking
for libv8 on the system. This allows the package to be installed on distros
that do not have libv8, or ship with a very old V8.
- The above should work for all x86_64 Linux systems with at least gcc-4.8.5
and is enabled by default on Travis and Github Actions.
