rustnzb v1.3.3

rustnzb v1.3.3

Summary

rustnzb 1.3.3 is a correctness-focused patch release for download completion,
provider-failure classification, PAR2 recovery accounting, and terminal job
handling. It prevents temporary provider or connection failures from being
reported as missing content and ensures incomplete downloads cannot enter
post-processing as successful jobs.

Fixes

• Article absence is now definitive only after every enabled provider returns
  an explicit NNTP 430 response. Authentication, permission, timeout,
  connection, protocol, and unavailable-provider failures remain transient.
• Stale pipelined NNTP sessions reconnect after idle timeouts instead of
  converting the affected articles into permanent failures.
• Completion and hopeless-download decisions now account for usable PAR2
  recovery blocks, unavailable recovery data, the configured safety reserve,
  and the correct PAR2 set.
• Jobs with failed content and no usable PAR2 data now finish as failures
  instead of skipping verification and continuing through extraction.
• Abort and completion paths have a single terminal owner, wait for in-flight
  work to settle, and prevent post-processing from racing assembler writes.
• Terminal queue removal and history persistence are idempotent, preventing
  duplicate history rows and protecting active post-processing from removal.
• Permission-denied NNTP responses receive the same provider cooldown as
  authentication failures and retain their original failure classification.
• The desktop release lockfile and placeholder frontend handling are refreshed
  for reproducible CI builds.

Website and demo

• The project website has a new NNTP-transcript visual design and updated
  product-focused documentation.
• The interactive browser demo has richer sample data, a documented standalone
  entry point, and an explicit exit control when served under /demo.

Validation

• Regression coverage exercises explicit provider absence, unavailable and
  permission-denied providers, stale-session recovery, PAR2 capacity and safety
  margins, single-owner aborts, post-processing removal, and idempotent history.
• The locked Rust workspace, WebDAV feature build, strict Clippy checks,
  frontend unit suite, dependency audit, and deterministic Playwright suite
  pass for this release candidate.

Breaking changes and upgrade notes

• There are no intentional HTTP API, configuration, or SQLite schema changes.
• Existing container mounts and configuration remain compatible. Operators
  should upgrade normally by pulling v1.3.3 or latest after publication.
