[ANN] Release 9.0.5

[panagiotis merakos]

Hello Matthias,

This is because of the autoupdated being 32bit only in LC 9.0.5. We have
fixed this in LC 9.5.0 (or in 9.5.1 rc1 which is not released yet - I do
not remember at the moment).

So I _think_ that LC 9.0.5 will continue to work in Catalina, but the
autoupdater will not.

Is there any reason not to use 9.5.0 in Catalina? I mean, is there any bug
affecting 9.5.x but not 9.0.x?

Kind regards,
Panos
