+propellor 3.1.0 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[!toggleable text="""
+ * Architecture changed from String to an ADT. (API Change)
+ Transition guide: Change "amd64" to X86\_64, "i386" to X86\_32,
+ "armel" to ARMEL, etc.
+ Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * The Debian data type now includes a DebianKernel. (API Change)
+ This won't affect most config.hs, as osDebian defaults to
+ Linux. Added osDebian' can be used to specify a different kernel.
+ Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * Improve exception handling. A property that threw a non-IOException
+ used to stop the whole propellor run. Now, all non-async exceptions
+ only make the property that threw them fail. (Implicit API change)
+ * Added StopPropellorException and stopPropellorMessage which can be
+ used in the unusual case where a failure of one property should stop
+ propellor from trying to ensure any other properties.
+ * tryPropellor returns Either SomeException instead of Either IOException
+ (API change)
+ * Switch letsencrypt to certbot package name.
+ * Sbuild: Add keyringInsecurelyGenerated which is useful on throwaway
+ build VMs.
+ Thanks, Sean Whitton
+ * Added Propellor.Property.SiteSpecific.Exoscale.
+ Thanks, Sean Whitton
+ * Property.Reboot: Added toDistroKernel and toKernelNewerThan.
+ Thanks, Sean Whitton
+ * Added ConfFile.hasIniSection.
+ Thanks, Félix Sipma.
+ * Apt.install: When asked to install a package that apt does not know
+ about, it used to incorrectly succeed. Now it will fail.
+ * Property.Firejail: New module.
+ Thanks, Sean Whitton
+ * File: Write privdata files in binary rather than text, which avoids
+ failure when they do not contain valid unicode.
+ Thanks, Andrew Schurman
+ * Generalized fileProperty can now operate on a file as either a series
+ of lines, or a ByteString.
+ * [ Sean Whitton ]
+ * New info property Schroot.useOverlays to indicate whether you want schroots
+ set up by propellor to use the Linux kernel's OverlayFS.
+ * Schroot.overlaysInTmpfs sets Schroot.useOverlays info property.
+ * If you have indicated that you want schroots to use OverlayFS and the
+ current kernel does not support it, Sbuild.built will attempt to reboot
+ into a kernel that does, or fail if it can't find one.
+ * Sbuild.built will no longer add duplicate `aliases=UNRELEASED,sid...` lines
+ to more than one schroot config. It will not remove any such lines that the
+ previous version of propellor added, though.
+ * Sbuild.keypairGenerated works around Debian bug #792100 by creating the
+ directory /root/.gnupg in advance.
+ * Ccache.hasCache now sets the setgid bit on the cache directory, as
+ ccache requires."""]] \ No newline at end of file
