.SS "New features"
.IX Subsection "New features"
.Vb 1
\& \- Support and packages for Debian and Ubuntu.
\&
\& \- Daily builds from git repository on Debian and Ubuntu to reduce risk
\&   of regressions.
\&
\& \- Port to ArchLinux \*(Aqpacman\*(Aq (thanks Thomas S Hatch).
\&
\& \- The following tools have been rewritten in C (originally in Perl):
\&
\&     . virt\-cat
\&     . virt\-df
\&     . virt\-inspector
\&     . virt\-ls
\&     . virt\-rescue
\&
\& \- Some C tools support encrypted guests automatically.  This is
\&   supported in: guestfish, guestmount, virt\-cat, virt\-inspector,
\&   virt\-ls.
\&
\& \- New tool virt\-filesystems (in C) which is a replacement for
\&   virt\-list\-filesystems and virt\-list\-partitions, and has a superset
\&   of the functionality of those tools.
\&
\& \- guestfish, guestmount and the C tools use unified command line option
\&   parsing, so they support many common options such as \*(Aq\-a disk.img\*(Aq,
\&   \*(Aq\-d libvirt\-domain\*(Aq, \*(Aq\-x\*(Aq, \*(Aq\-v\*(Aq.  The old command line option
\&   parsing is preserved for compatibility in scripts etc.
\&
\& \- guestfish no longer has any dependencies on Perl
\&
\& \- New man pages containing programming examples: guestfs\-examples(3) (C/C++),
\&   guestfs\-ocaml(3), guestfs\-python(3), guestfs\-ruby(3).
\&
\& \- Trace mode prints return values from API functions.
\&
\& \- virt\-inspector can list applications installed in Windows guests, along
\&   with a great deal of information about those applications.
\&
\& \- Add support for inspecting: Linux Mint, Mandriva, FreeBSD.
\&
\& \- guestfish \-\-rw option (with no effect currently) to make potentially
\&   dangerous write access explicit.
\&
\& \- guestfish \-\-listen \-\-csh for compatibility with csh, tcsh (thanks
\&   Eric Blake).
\&
\& \- The first upstream version that introduced each API function is now
\&   documented in guestfs(3).
\&
\& \- guestfs_last_errno allows you to retrieve the errno from the
\&   daemon, correctly translated to the local operating system.
\&
\& \- Functions can now have optional parameters.
\&
\& \- Progress bars and progress notifications can now happen for upload
\&   commands.
\&
\& \- Appliance builder more careful about not leaving temporary files
\&   around in /tmp.
\&
\& \- getfattr/setfattr commands added to virt\-rescue.
\&
\& \- ROADMAP file covers roadmap and goals for future releases.
.Ve
.SS "Security"
.IX Subsection "Security"
.Vb 1
\& \- New SECURITY section in guestfs(3) API documentation.
\&
\& \- virt\-inspector no longer runs any guest commands.
\&
\& \- Inspection code is more careful about avoiding very large files
\&   from guests which might previously have caused a denial of service.
\&
\& \- FUSE calls into guestmount are now traced when using guestmount \-x.
.Ve
.SS "New APIs"
.IX Subsection "New APIs"
.Vb 10
\& \- add\-domain
\& \- add\-drive\-opts
\& \- getxattr
\& \- inspect\-get\-hostname
\& \- inspect\-get\-package\-format
\& \- inspect\-get\-package\-management
\& \- inspect\-get\-roots
\& \- inspect\-list\-applications
\& \- lgetxattr
\& \- mkfs\-opts
.Ve
.SS "内部"
.IX Subsection "内部"
.Vb 1
\& \- C programs now only link precisely with the libraries that they use.
\&
\& \- PCRE, libmagic, hivex and libvirt libraries are now completely
\&   optional for building.
\&
\& \- Multiple memory leaks and file descriptor leaks fixed.
\&
\& \- Add a POD wrapper to unify generation of man pages and HTML files
\&   across all programs.
\&
\& \- Source includes phony images of Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu and
\&   Windows guests.
\&
\& \- Ruby bindings have \*(Aqmake install\*(Aq rule.
\&
\& \- <guestfs.h> is now a single file.
\&
\& \- <guestfs.h> does not require XDR headers.
\&
\& \- ocaml xml\-light library is no longer required to build (thanks
\&   Maxim Koltsov).
\&
\& \- ./configure \-\-disable\-[...] for each language binding (thanks
\&   Maxim Koltsov).
\&
\& \- Old ocaml\-viewer program removed (use guestfs\-browser instead).
\&
\& \- New C API test type \*(AqInitScratchFS\*(Aq makes the tests run a little
\&   more quickly.
\&
\& \- Excluded packages in the appliance are now listed in a separate
\&   file appliance/excludelist.in, and can be customized per\-distro.

.SS "バグ修正"
.IX Subsection "バグ修正"
.Vb 6
\& \- 663407 readlink and readlinklist returns /sysroot/ in some paths
\& \- 661280 virt\-rescue: panic when shutting down: "/sbin/reboot: No such file or directory"
\& \- 657499 checksum: wrong check sum type causes umount to fail
\& \- 655554 Whole disk paths are not made canonical by virt\-inspector
\& \- 654638 openssl updated to 1.0.0b libguestfs depends on exact file names
\& \- 652796 ruby bindings not installed by \*(Aqmake install\*(Aq, hence omitted from the binary distribution
