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."""]]
