Specifically, the following updates may require 16 additional upgrade steps: 17 * [End of support for older macOS releases](#end-of-support-for-older-macos-releases) 18 * [Linux DNS resolver changes](#linux-dns-resolver-changes) 19 20 See [the full changelog](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/v1.5/CHANGELOG.md) 21 for more details. If you encounter any problems during upgrading which are not 22 covered this guide, please start a new topic in 23 [the Terraform community forum](https://discuss.hashicorp.com/c/terraform-core) 24 to discuss it. 25 26 ## End of support for older macOS releases 27 28 Terraform v1.5 will be the last release supported on macOS 10.13 High Sierra 29 and macOS 10.14 Mojave, both of which are no longer maintained by Apple. 30 31 Terraform v1.5 itself supports these older macOS versions, but we strongly 32 recommend upgrading during the v1.5 release period so that you'll be ready to 33 use Terraform v1.6 once it is released. 34 35 ## Linux DNS resolver changes 36 37 Terraform on Linux uses a built-in DNS resolver rather than using the DNS 38 resolver from the platform's C library, because this allows Terraform to run 39 on systems with many different C libraries. 40 41 In Terraform v1.5, the DNS resolver will now notice when you have set the 42 `trust-ad` option in your `/etc/resolve.conf` file, and will respond by setting 43 the "authentic data" option in outgoing DNS requests to better match the 44 behavior of the GNU libc DNS resolver. 45 46 Terraform does not pay any attention to the corresponding option in responses, 47 but some DNSSEC-aware recursive resolvers return different responses when the 48 request option isn't set. This should therefore avoid some potential situations 49 where a DNS request from Terraform might get a different response than a 50 similar request from other software on your system. 51 52 We don't expect this behavior change to be significant for most Terraform users. 53 54 Note that this change affects only DNS requests made by Terraform CLI itself, 55 and not requests made by providers. Provider plugins are separate programs 56 which handle DNS resolution themselves and so may have different behavior.
