AWIPS 17.1.1-6

13 June 2018

Unidata AWIPS 17.1.1-6 is a minor release with the following changes:

WarnGen bug fixes: for practice sessions, the WarnGen app no longer uses JMS to send/verify messages between client and server, instead sending the generated message directly to a TextWS window for editing, keeping everything client-side.
postgis update to 2.4.4 to fix segfault signal 11 when WarnGen requests EDEX PostgreSQL to create coverage area geometries.
geos update to 3.6.2.
gdal update to 2.2.4.
proj update to 5.1.0.
postgresql and psql update to 9.5.13 to account for new versions of postgis, gdal, and proj, and to remove the geos dependency.
shapely update to 1.6.4 after geos dep update to 3.6.2.
NCP Resource Manager cleanup of unused resources (Linux only).
