# LXD 5.0.10 release notes This is a [LTS release](https://canonical.com/lxd/docs/latest/reference/releases-snap/index.html.md#ref-releases-lts) and is recommended for production use. This is a maintenance release for the 5.0 LTS series. It includes storage and `devlxd` reliability fixes and other bug fixes backported from the main development branch. ## Highlights This section highlights notable improvements in this release. ### `devlxd` moved to shared mounts The `devlxd` socket is now served from the shared mounts (`shmounts`) mechanism instead of its previous dedicated mount path. Existing instances are automatically migrated from the old `devlxd` path to the new one, and a stacked `tmpfs` mount issue affecting shared mounts was fixed as part of this change. ## Bug fixes The following bug fixes are included in this release. - [ZFS storage pool leaked after shutdown due to a lingering forkfile daemon](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/18946) - [File operations failed due to a deleted forkfile as a result of a race condition](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/18954) - [LXCFS clean up logic could avoid generating new certificates on running instances](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/18956) - [Fixed stacked tmpfs shmounts and migrated the devlxd path to shared mounts](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/19021) ## Snap packaging changes - ZFS 2.2 bumped to 2.2.11. ## Change log View the [complete list of all changes in this release](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/compare/lxd-5.0.9...lxd-5.0.10). ## Downloads The source tarballs and binary clients can be found on our [download page](https://github.com/canonical/lxd/releases/tag/lxd-5.0.10).
