0.74.0:
* The way || dependencies are handled has changed to allow upgrades in
certain situations that would previously be blocked.

files to a tar being created for a pbin. This is now fixed.
* We now strip certain kinds of trailing garbage from tar files, to deal
with upstreams who insist upon distributing corrupted tarballs.
* We now define ${T} to something usable in pkg_pretend.
* The order of arguments passed to econf has been tweaked, to make it easier
to override defaults.

spec.

developers screwing up package moves.

* Assorted bug fixes.
0.70.0:
* 'cave sync --suffix' is now known as '--source' (although the old
version is still supported for compatibility). The short version is
still '-s'.
* Command-line arguments that have a short version and can be negated
with '--no-*' can now be negated in short form by using '+' instead
of '-', for example '+x' for '--no-execute'.
* Manifest files for E repositories are now generated with the lines in the
same order as Portage.

by either the repository itself or user configuration.

"cat/pkg[b][a]" are "the same".
* Support for Portage-format configurations has been improved slightly.
0.64.0:
* Support for Gentoo old-style virtuals has been removed.
* The 'accerso', 'instruo' and 'appareo' clients have been removed in favour
of 'cave'.
* 'cave resolve' now has 'if-same-metadata' options for '--keep' and
'--keep-targets', to take care of all those times when Gentoo developers
ignore policy and change dependencies without a revbump.
* Dependent IDs now have their dependency type (e.g. 'build', 'runtime')
shown in the reasons output for 'cave resolve' and 'cave uninstall'.
0.62.2:
* 'cave fix-linkage' no longer gets upset at .la files that are missing a
final newline character.
0.62.1:
* 'cave resolve --hide' now affects resolvent selection too.
* Various minor bug fixes.
0.62.0:
* New package dep spec syntax for matching masks: '[.(mask)?]'.
* Added 'cave sync --revision', currently only for Git syncs.
* We now use Google's 'gtest' for unit tests.
* Fairly hefty code cleanups.
0.60.4:
* 'cave search --and' now works as documented.
* Previously pbins had problems with symlinks due to oddities in libarchive.
This is now worked around.
* We now treat invalid cached metadata slightly differently, to avoid
problems with Gentoo shipping broken metadata due to lack of validation in
Portage.
0.60.3:
* Second attempt at getting '--enable-prebuilt-documentation' to work
reliably.
0.60.2:
* A new configure option, '--enable-prebuilt-documentation', can be used to
avoid requiring Asciidoc, since on Gentoo Asciidoc has several bogus
dependencies that pull in a lot of unwanted packages on X-less systems.
0.60.1:
* 'cave resolve --reinstall-dependents-of' now does what the documentation
says it does.
* 'cave help' no longer explodes if script commands are present.
* We now work with Jansson 2.0 too.
0.60.0:
* 'cave resolve' can now '--reinstall-dependents-of'
* HTML versions of man pages are now created from the generated Asciidoc
files rather than directly.
0.60.0_pre1:

* A new special 'nothing' set has been added.
0.58.5:
* 'cave search' no longer fails when encountering invalid metadata.
* New 'cave' subcommand: 'mirror'
0.58.4:
* cave resolve --via-binary would lock up under certain circumstances. This
is now fixed.

0.58.3:
* We no longer issue QA warnings for certain extremely common QA violations
on Gentoo.

binary packages.
* We now prioritise suggestions.conf over the --suggestions and
--recommendations command line options.
0.58.1:
* When a package strongly blocks other installed slots of itself, the
resolver no longer fails to find an ordering if upgrading older slots
would make the blocker no longer met.
* 'cave show' now displays overridden masks on unmasked packages.
0.58.0:
* The 'paludis' client is now deprecated in favour of 'cave'.
* New 'cave resolve' option: '--one-binary-per-slot'.

0.56.4:
* Certain abusive || ( ) dependencies are now handled in the same way that
Portage treats them.
* When using 'cave uninstall --remove-if-dependent' followed by 'cave
resume', dependent packages would be added to rather than removed from
world. This is now fixed.
0.56.3:
* cave report would previously not mention certain security issues. This is
now fixed.
* Syncing via 'rsync' now uses '--delete-delay' rather than
'--delete-after'. This requires rsync 3.
0.56.2:
* EAPI 4 is enabled.
* New 'cave' subcommand: 'digest'.
* New 'cave print-unused-distfiles' option: '--include'.
* Updates now work correctly again.
0.56.1:

* We now run pkg_pretend even if certain confirmations are required.
* Various minor bug fixes and documentation tweaks.
0.56.0:
* New 'cave' subcommand: 'print-spec'.

0.54.10:
* A bug in via-binary package ordering has been fixed.
* 'cave owner' now has a --dereference option.
* We now use libmagic rather than calling the 'file' executable to determine
whether or not to strip files.
0.54.9:
* Binary package configuration is now documented, although it is still
considered experimental. Various binary-related bugs are fixed.
* We now display much cleaner errors if output manager creation fails (e.g.
if the log directory does not exist).
* New cave print-unused-distfiles subcommand.
* We no longer show "no output for X seconds" messages when only one job is
running.
0.54.8:
* We now produce easier to understand error messages for certain resolutions
where unmasking is required.
* We now show suggestions when 'cave resolve' targets do not exist.
0.54.7:
* Added 'cave has-version', 'cave print-best-version'.
* 'cave show' now displays correct headings for suboption groups.
0.54.6:
* Coreutils 8.6 changes how 'stat' displays mtimes. We now support the new
output format.
0.54.5:
* A bug where especially nasty circular dependencies would sometimes end up
being ordered incorrectly has been fixed.
* cave show --all-versions, --repository-at-a-time, --no-keys
0.54.4:
* XFS clobbers set*id bits when fallocate is used. This is now worked
around.
* Various output improvements to 'cave display-resolution'.
* 'cave resolve' now has '--ignore-unable-decisions' and
'--ignore-unorderable-jobs' overrides. Both will lead to horribly broken
systems if abused.
* New 'cave' subcommands: 'size', 'print-size'.
* 'cave owner /blah/' will now match paths like '/blah'.
* 'cave resolve --prefer/--avoid' now work if given an unqualified package
name.
* New user dependency spec options: [.::repokey=blah], [.$role] and [.key?].
0.54.3:
* split debug now works correctly again.
* IDs for repositories will now exist but be masked in their origin
repository when a repository is already configured.
* New --graph-jobs option for 'cave resolve'.
* 'cave execute-resolution' no longer shows (no output for x seconds)
messages when only one job is active.
* The option descriptions for 'cave import --preserve-work' now match what
the option values do.
* 'cave purge' will now error if given parameters, since it does not do
anything with them.
0.54.2:
* Upgrading from older versions to 0.54.1 would produce strange errors. This
does not happen for 0.54.2.
* Blockers and uninstalls for chroots are now handled.
0.54.1:
* User-defined cave commands are now passed all command line arguments
correctly.
* 'cave show' now has '--description-keys', and 'cave search' uses this
where appropriate.
* Paludis key=value configuration files can now use '$ENV{FOO}' to refer to
an environment variable.
* output.conf can now set log_path, and user defined output managers will
now override builtin output managers with the same name.
* When running in 'quiet' mode, status messages are now shown.
* Warning and error messages are now shown at the end, along with info and
log messages.
* The 'tee' output manager handler now has 'stdout_children' and
'stderr_children' for only forwarding stdout or stderr.
* Where supported, 'fallocate' is now used when merging files.
* Where supported, dirent->d_type is now used to reduce the number of stat()
calls that are made.
0.54.0:
* 'cave resolve --remove-if-dependent' will now cause dependent packages to
be removed from world, if no versions remain.
* 'cave resolve --make' now defaults to 'chroot' when the environment's
preferred root is not '/'.
* 'cave display-resolution --show-option-descriptions' now works as
documented.
* 'cave fix-linkage' may take multiple '--library' arguments.
* New 'cave' subcommands: 'report', 'print-id-environment-variable'.
* 'cave print-' commands are now consistent in handling '--all' / '-a' and
'--best' / '-b'.
* 'cave show' will now always show keys specified by '-k', even if those
keys are internal-only or complex.
* 'cave search' now takes an optional SQLite index, which can be created
using 'cave manage-search-index'.
* 'cave search' now has a '--visible' option.
* The 'importare', 'inquisitio' and 'reconcilio' clients are now deprecated
in favour of 'cave import, 'cave search' and 'cave fix-linkage'
respectively.
* Output managers and output.conf are now documented features, and a new
'command' output manager handler was added.
* Hooks are now run using an output manager, where appropriate. The API for
.so hooks has been changed to allow this.
* The demo hooks have been removed, since none are particularly useful with
'cave'.
* 'cave' now has a global '--colour' option, and coloured output is disabled
by default when outputting to a non-tty.
* The output format for certain cave commands can now be tinkered with by
the user. Use 'cave dump-cave-formats-conf' to create ~/.cave/formats.conf
and then edit as desired.
* The way sub-programs are executed has changed to be somewhat less
convoluted.
0.52.3:
* A bug causing screwiness with soft-blocking EAPI 3 packages where both
packages installed the same file with an mtime in the distant past has
been fixed.
* GCC 4.5 appears to be unhappy with dlclose being called in a static
variable's destructor. We no longer do this.
* ACCEPT_LICENSE is now automatically set based upon accepted licences that
have been accepted by the user.
* 'cave print-id-*' now have '--all' and will accept wildcards.
* CONFIG_PROTECT and CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK for installed packages are now
accessible as metadata keys.
* Certain 'cave' commands will now suggest possibilities if there is nothing
matching the target supplied. Fuzzy name matching will now also suggest
packages whose names contain the target as a substring, as well as
packages whose names are similar to the target.
0.52.2:
* 'cave perform' now calls '_fail' hooks.
* 'cave print-id-contents' now has '--type'
* 'cave print-packages' now has '--repository' and '--category'
* Output buffering of commands has changed to better handle progress bars of
the kind displayed by 'wget' and 'git'. To avoid excessive hopping, 'cave
execute-resolution' will now only switch between buffered outputs every
few seconds, rather than 0.1s if new output is available.
* 'cave display-resolution' now shows flag changes in a more obvious manner.
* 'cave purge' and purge checking for 'cave resolve' are now significantly
faster.
* 'cave resolve --less-restrictive-remove-blockers' is now much more likely
to be able to fix breakages by reinstalls. A horrible error that was most
easily triggered by use of this option is now fixed.
0.52.1:
* glibc 2.12 changes the OS ABI used by its libraries. 'cave fix-linkage'
and 'reconcilio' have been updated to ignore OS ABI mismatches to avoid
marking every package that uses libc as being broken.
0.52.0:
* format="exheres" and format="ebuild" are now deprecated in favour of
format="e".
* Specifying 'root' in a repository config file now overrides the
environment-supplied default.
* 'cave resolve' will now select packages even if [use] dependencies are
unmet, and will display the necessary changes needed to user
configuration.
* 'cave resolve --without' will now allow nothing at all to be installed.
* 'cave resolve' now has options for chroot handling.
* 'cave execute-resolution' now writes resume data after every job
completion, rather than just upon normal exit.
* 'cave import' now has '--strip --preserve-work' options, and the default
for build_options: preserve_work is now disabled.
* 'cave print-ids' now has short options.
* 'cave display-resolution' now displays better job count information, and
more compact at displaying circular dependencies.
0.50.3:
* :* dependencies no longer count as matching every slot when testing
removal safety.
* When 'cave resolve' changes from having made a decision to being unable to
make a decision, and where dependencies from the previously made decision
have already been tracked, a horrible error is no longer produced.
* 'cave display-resolution' now shows download sizes, and no longer displays
empty descriptions.
* 'cave resolve' now has a '--fetch' option to skip non-fetch jobs.
* 'cave show' now has a '--no-versions' option.
0.50.2:
* 'cave resolve --continue-on-failure' interacted weirdly with background
fetching. This is now fixed.
* Support for automatic repository configuration creation via installing
a 'repository/somerepo' pseudo-package is now available on Gentoo.
* Queries in the form '*/*::foo->' no longer force pointless generation of
metadata for ebuilds.
0.50.1:
* 'cave purge' and 'cave resolve' will no longer either give misleading
output or produce a horrible error when a package providing an old style
virtual is marked for purging.
* 'cave resolve' will no longer give a horrible error when encountering
certain convoluted circular dependencies.
0.50.0:
* We now require a compiler supporting various C++0x features, such as GCC
4.4 or later.
* format="exheres" and format="ebuild" are now known as format="e". The old
format names remain valid and are not yet deprecated.
* Arguments in the form -X0 are now parsed as -X 0 rather than -X -0.
* 'cave execute-resolution' now allows a single fetch job and a single
execute job to be executed in parallel.
* 'cave update-world' now displays whether or not world is changed.
* 'cave execute-resolution' headings and summaries now include information
on the versions being replaced, where appropriate
* 'cave resolve' will now select weakly masked packages rather than being
unable to decide. Such packages must be manually unmasked before the
resolution can proceed.
0.48.6:
* If the user explicitly specified an option for the special 'test' flag,
this would override the build_options magic. This is now fixed.
* Certain pkg_ functions are no longer skipped for 0-based EAPIs, to work
around badly behaving Gentoo ebuilds.
* If 'cave show' displays a masked package, it will now pick a version that
is easy to unmask over a higher version that cannot be unmasked.
* New 'cave verify' subcommand for checking whether installed packages have
been modified.
0.48.5:
* xattr support was previously looking for attr/xattr.h rather than
sys/xattr.h, and so was not being detected on glibc systems without attr
installed. This is now corrected.
* On some systems, the Python bindings were giving dlopen related warnings
due to the linker trying to be too clever. This is now worked around.
* New cave subcommands for scripting: print-id-actions, print-id-masks,
print-repository-metadata, print-set.
0.48.4:
* 'cave uninstall' now accepts wildcards.
* 'cave purge' and 'cave resolve' will no longer attempt to purge things
that cannot be uninstalled.
* 'cave show -t' now has short options for values.
* We now tolerate ebuilds that try to output things or die in global scope.
0.48.3:
* 'cave display-resolution' now indicates when changing the origin
repository for an upgrade.
* 'cave display-resolution' now shows dependency reasons correctly.
* 'cave resolve !foo' now applies to all slots of foo, rather than using the
--target-slots option.
* 'cave uninstall' will now only update world if every slot has been
removed.
* 'cave execute-resolution' will now show pkg_nofetch information where
appropriate.
* 'cave resume' on a resume file that includes already-completed uninstalls
no longer errors.
* Uninstalls are now considered for 'cave execute-resolution
--continue-on-failure' (previously a failed uninstall would not count as a
failure).
0.48.2:
* The 'cave' client is now enabled by default. 'cave' is a modular console
client that will eventually replace 'paludis'. It is currently reasonably
functional and well tested, but does not yet have all the features present
in 'paludis', and is thus not yet considered a complete replacement.
0.48.1:
* We now work around broken TLS support in certain monkey-patched GCC
versions.
* Various minor bug fixes.
* Working compiler support for 'extern template' is now required.
* The PALUDIS_IGNORE_HOOKS_NAMED environment variable can be used to skip
executing hooks from specific files.
0.48.0:
* --reset is now the default for git syncers. If Paludis is used to sync a
git repository with modifications, those modifications will be lost. Use
--no-reset to stay with the old (git pull) behaviour, but note that it is
probably better to change your workflow such that Paludis never directly
works with any repository it does not manage.
* environment.conf is now general.conf. Your existing environment.conf
should be renamed.
* When switching UIDs, we now also pick up supplemental groups.
* World is now updated for package moves.
0.46.0:
* We can now read environment.bz2 files from VDB created by newer Portage
versions.
* appareo now has various options relating to checksum overriding.
* When creating cache subdirectories, we now copy the mode of the main cache
directory rather than using umask to determine permissions.
0.44.2:
* Various documentation updates.
* When disambiguating a spec like foo::bar, where cat-1/pkg::foo and
cat-2/pkg::bar exist, we now recognise that you must want cat-2.
* A bug causing NoConfig clients to fail to find profiles when used with a
supplemental repository that does not provide its own profiles description
has been fixed.
0.44.1:
* EAPI 3 support is enabled.
* A bug giving incorrect results when using -* in use.conf/options.conf has
been fixed.
0.44.0:
* The 'everything' set is now called 'installed-packages'. A new set named
'installed-slots' has been added, which is similar but includes slot
restrictions matching installed slots.
* kdebuild-1 support has been removed, following the Gentoo Council's
decision to remove all mention of it from the Package Manager
Specification. Users with installed kdebuild-1 packages must remove them
before upgrading.
* Support for EAPI 4 (formerly known as EAPI 3) is present but not
installed, since the specification has yet to be approved.
* Support for the new EAPI 3 is present but not installed, since the
specification has yet to be approved.
* The [.key=value] syntax for user dep specs now works with sets, sequences
and spec trees. If < is used instead of =, a less than comparison is used
for numeric values, and for compound values, a match succeeds if any item
of the key is equal to the specified pattern.
* build_options: preserve_work can be used to avoid removing temporary
working directories, and to force a non-destructive merge.
* Profile updates (package and slot moves) are now enabled by default.
* Workarounds for various interactivity abuses carried out by certain
ebuilds have been added.
* Various large code cleanups and build system cleanups.
0.42.3:
* Updated environment filtering code for bash 4.1.
* Fixed symlink handling under SELinux.
0.42.2:
* An obscure resolver bug that results in 'evolution' trying to downgrade
'gnupg' on Gentoo has been fixed.
* paludis -i foo::installed now gives an explanation of why it doesn't do
what some people seem to expect.
* Assorted documentation tweaks.
0.42.1:
* Various improvements to error handling.
* Syncing svn repositories no longer breaks when using weird locales.
* GNU info handling will now work even if Paludis is run via sudo with
env_reset enabled.
0.42.0:
* Qualudis has been removed.
* Various cached values are now forcibly discarded when they're not going to
be used any more, leading to paludis --owner and reconcilio using
considerably less RAM.
* Various bug, style and performance fixes related to updates (package moves
etc). By default updates will still only be displayed but not carried out;
consult the FAQ for details.
0.42.0_alpha1:
* The Git syncer now has various options for dealing with branches.
* Experimental support for profile updates (package moves etc). By default
updates will be displayed but not carried out; consult the FAQ for
details.
* Support for the recently changed EAPI 3 is present and used during tests
but excluded from the install target.
0.40.1:
* Bugfix: sometimes fetch failures would not register as errors.
0.40.0:
* Notifier callbacks allow clients to tell the user what's going on when
generating metadata, performing resolutions etc.
* Sets now work slightly differently. For sets defined by multiple
repositories (e.g. 'system'), 'setname::repo' can be used to access the
part of the set defined by a given repository.
* Bugfix: Upgrading an unpackaged package no longer errors out.
* Bugfix: Combining :slot and ::/path restrictions now works correctly.
0.38.2:
* Failures installing qt-core on Gentoo have been fixed.
0.38.1:
* Various fixes when using the Portage configuration.
0.38.0:
* The =...* dependency operator in configuration files and command-line
arguments now matches component-wise rather than character-wise.
* Support for EAPI 3 is present and used during tests but excluded from the
install target.
0.36.1:
* Various Ruby 1.9 fixes.
* Hashes are now memoised, to speed up --pretend --install for certain
cases.
* We now use pcrecpp rather than pcre++ to avoid the latter's lack of thread
sanity.
0.36.0:
* system packages are now treated as 'used' for --uninstall.
* Fetch related errors that can be caught up-front are now tested at
--pretend time.
* Support for [.key=value] dependency specifications.
* Support for configurable output managers. These are undocumented in this
release and configuration formats may change without backwards
compatibility; documentation and stability will be provided once we've
ironed out any kinks. With the default configuration, message logs for all
packages and build logs for failed packages are kept in /var/log/paludis/.
* SLOT and EAPI now show up as metadata keys, and are searchable.
0.34.2:
* Wildcards are now allowed for --contents and --executables.
* A hardlink-merging bug has been fixed.
* New appareo client, for manifest generation.
0.34.1:
* We can now skip src_ phases where it is safe to do so.
* Documentation updates for repository configuration.
* Support for managing user and group accounts (requires distribution
support).
0.34.0:
* instruo is now parallelised.
* For NoConfigEnvironment profiles are only loaded when needed.
0.34.0_alpha2:
* Unpackaged repository now defines merge and strip phases, making phases
useful for importare.
* Fixed build errors on certain systems.
* Stop pythons from eating all your rams when compiling.
* Updates to zsh completions.
0.34.0_alpha1:
* Masks that have been overridden by the user are now shown.
* Support phases.
* Paludis internals are now threaded using pthreads, and provide the SGI
guarantee.
0.32.4:
* DEFINED_PHASES can now be cached for 0-based EAPIs.
* Tidy up documentation and completion functions after the removal of
--checks and --debug-build.
* Profile EAPI files are now supported for E repositories.
* Fix bug where IUSE="foo +foo -foo" would show three foos rather than one.
0.32.3:
* Fixed handling of VIDEO_CARDS="foo" in make.conf, ** in package.keywords
with PortageEnvironment.
* Fixed new/changed options display.
* Fixed the stripper.
* RESTRICTed build options are no longer shown.
0.32.2:
* Fixed various compiler issues.
* ERepository::package_names (and by extension, paludis --list-packages) are
now quite a bit faster, but may list package names whose package
directories include no versions.
* DEFINED_PHASES is now used and supported (but not used for 0-based EAPIs
with pre-generated cache, since a cache line has yet to be standardised).
As a result, ebuild hooks for phases that aren't used will not necessarily
be triggered.
0.32.1:
* VDB entries not containing an IUSE file would give incorrect behaviour.
This is now fixed.
0.32.0:
* accerso now handles unmirrorable files sensibly.
* sets would sometimes not end up being added to world. This is now fixed.
