1.114:
* Introduced --without-gtk option to ./configure to optionally disable GTK
  functionality.
* Fixed typo in pam-panel-icon manual page.
* Updated translations.

1.113:
* Added support of --with-fexecve option to ./configure.  If found on a system,
  fexecve instead of exec* is used by userhelper.  This should avoid possible
  race conditions.  Possible values are:
  - "yes": force fexecve
  - "no": force exec*
  - anything else: use fexecve if possible (default)

1.112:
* Updated translations.

1.111:
* Updated translations.

1.110:
* INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: The shutdown(8) wrapper script and the
  $sysconfdir/security/console.apps/{halt,poweroff,reboot} configuration files
  are not installed by this package.  The contents have been moved to a
  "sample" subdirectory in the tarball.  Distributions are encouraged to
  package such wrapping configuration along with the wrapped commands instead,
  like they probably do for all other commmands.
* All commands now terminate on unexpected arguments intead of silently ignoring
  them.
