* NEWS *

debuginfod-client:

- When DEBUGINFOD_PROGRESS is set and the program doesn't
  install its own debuginfod_progressfn_t show download
  progress on stderr.
- DEBUGINFOD_TIMEOUT is now defined as seconds to get at
  least 100K, defaults to 90 seconds.
- Default to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/debuginfod_client.
- New functions debuginfod_set_user_data,
  debuginfod_get_user_data, debuginfod_get_url and
  debuginfod_add_http_header.
- Support for file:// URLs.

debuginfod:

- Performance improvements through highly parallelized scanning
  and archive content caching.
- Uses libarchive directly for reading rpm archives.
- Support for indexing .deb/.ddeb archives through dpkg-deb
  or bsdtar.
- Generic archive support through -Z EXT[=CMD]. Which can be
  used for example for arch-linux pacman files by using
  -Z '.tar.zst=zstdcat'.
- Better logging using User-Agent and X-Forwarded-For headers.
- More prometheus metrics.
- Support for eliding dots or extraneous slashes in path names.

debuginfod-find:

- Accept /path/names in place of buildid hex.

libelf:

- Handle PN_XNUM in elf_getphdrnum before shdr 0 is cached
- Ensure zlib resource cleanup on failure.

libdwfl:

- dwfl_linux_kernel_find_elf and dwfl_linux_kernel_report_offline
  now find and handle a compressed vmlinuz image.

readelf, elflint:

- Handle PT_GNU_PROPERTY.

translations:

- Updated Ukrainian translation.
