   Packages have been built for many distributions and will become
available in the standard repositories during the next few days if they
are not there already.

Kind regards,

   Even though the last release 3.8 was just two weeks ago, we're
sticking to the release schedule and have 3.8.4 ready for all our
current and future users. As with all updates, we advise users of
previous versions to upgrade to the latest and greatest. Several bugs
have been fixed, and upgrading is one way to prevent hitting known
problems in future.
