xTuple ERP 5.0.0-beta is now available for download from xTuple.org. Thanks to all who contributed to make this release possible, including Cordeck Building Solutions, Warning Lites, Larry Cartee, Alfredo Martinez, Scott Zuke, Steven Buttgereit, Jim Wirt, Wes Baker, Joel White, and Rebecca Shapiro.
See How to Pilot xTuple ERP+CRM 5.0.0 for detailed help with this significant update. This release includes major changes to CRM functionality and the tax system, including integration with Avalara. There are significant changes to how CRM and tax data are stored in the database, so you may need to update customized scripts, reports, and MetaSQL queries. In addition, the deprecated portions of the Script Toolbox have been removed as previously announced, which may also require script updates. The updatetodb 1.0.0-rc and deprecatedtb 1.0.0-beta extensions can help with finding database objects that need updating for version 5.0 schema compatibility and toolbox deprecation, respectively.
Strict country checking is now required and how countries are stored in the database has been changed. Before upgrading to 5.0.0-alpha or later, you must install fixCountry 5.0.0-rc.3 and migrate the country data.

- EDIT: The original Linux build was erroneously built with version 5.5.1 of the Qt Framework when it should have been built with 5.11.2. This causes issues with the xtdesktop extension and possibly other problems. It has been replaced with a new, correct build. (2019-04-17 18:00 UTC)
