Version v0.15.9 of SILE has been released and is available for download! See the included CHANGELOG.md or review the commit history for more explicit details.

Summary of Improvements

This release actually fixes build issues for macOS (Darwin) we tried to fix in v0.15.8 but were more involved than first suspected. It also packages some CSL files that were missing from previous source distributions and touches up a few other odds and ends.

In non-build related changes, Didier Willis patched up some bibliography behaviour. As a cherry on top I patched up the ability to generate a completely blank PDF without throwing an error and changed the outputter API to include an official way to throw an error without also generating a blank PDF.

• outputters: Add a method to handle empty PDFs vs. cleanup after error (5a7694d)
