NEWS for SoftHSM -- History of user visible changes
SoftHSM 1.1.4 - 2010-04-06
* Respect --disable-64bit
* Respect $DESTDIR for config files
* The binaries can now show the version number
* softhsm-keyconv could not handle --ttl properly
* Link softhsm static with libsofthsm
* Build libsofthsm.so without version number
* libsofthsm.so is now a loadable module
SoftHSM 1.1.3 - 2010-01-25
* Only check for the SQLite3 library. The binary is not needed.
* Switch to PKCS#11 header file from the Scute project.
* KNOWN BUG: A bug in Botan made some of the checks to fail on Debian
unstable. The bug may appear on other platforms.
Please upgrade to Botan 1.8.9 when it is available.
SoftHSM 1.1.2 - 2009-12-21
* Documentation on how to do backup.
* Limiting the number of concurrent sessions to 256, because SQLite has a
limit on the number of database connections.
* Install a sample of the configuration file.
* Manual pages are now available for softhsm, softhsm-keyconv, and
softhsm.conf
* Bugfix: --enable-64bit configure option did not work correctly.
* KNOWN BUG: A version of Botan available in some OS has a problem with
the entropy. This causes SoftHSM to freeze in some operations.

Please upgrade to the Botan 1.8.5 or greater.
SoftHSM 1.1.0 - 2009-11-02
* The tool softhsm-keyconv can convert keys between BIND key file format
and PKCS#8 file format. So it can be imported to SoftHSM.
It can also convert back to BIND format.
* C_FindObjectsInit is now up to 80 % faster.
* KNOWN BUG: A version of Botan available in some OS has a problem with
the entropy. This causes SoftHSM to freeze in some operations.
Please upgrade to the Botan 1.8.5 or greater.

* Using /usr/local, /etc, and /var as default
* Improved the performance of creating keys
* Log error message if database cannot be opened
* KNOWN BUG: A version of Botan available in some OS has a problem with
the entropy. This causes SoftHSM to freeze in some operations.
Please upgrade to the Botan 1.8.5 or greater.
SoftHSM 1.0.0-RC3 - 2009-08-26
* Vacuum the empty space in the database when initializing it
* Minor speed improvment when searching for objects
* Fixed build problem with GCC >= 4.3
* Fixed some linking problem
* KNOWN BUG: A version of Botan available in some OS has a problem with
the entropy. This causes SoftHSM to freeze in some operations.
Please upgrade to the Botan 1.8.5 or greater.
SoftHSM 1.0.0-RC2 - 2009-07-08
* Added a check for the Botan library in config script

* The default location of the config file is $sysconfdir/softhsm.conf
* Simplified the configure options
* The softhsm tool initialize the tokens by using the library.
* Import keys via PKCS#11 and the softhsm tool.
* Export keys via the softhsm tool
SoftHSM 1.0.0-RC1 - 2009-03-10
