0.62:
* Fixed security vulnerabilities:
  * \n characters were allowed in files/shadow fields (CVE-2015-3245)
  * Non-atomic file updates in files/shadow module (CVE-2015-3246)
  Thanks to Qualys for reporting these issues.
* The files and shadow modules now use a shadow-utils compatible
  scheme (primarily lckpwdf()).

0.61:
* Python 3 is now supported.
  Consistent with the Python 3 C API and its prevailing usage, only UTF-8
  locales work.  Note that importing libuser in non-UTF-8 locales will fail in
  Python 3.
* The Python extension now requires Python 2.7.
* Translations are now maintained in https://fedora.zanata.org/ .
* tests/fs_test can be edited to truly perform operations as root, without
  fakeroot.
* sgml2txt is no longer required for building from the released tarball.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups, primarily in the Python extension.

0.60:
* New functions lu_homedir_remove_for_user() and
  lu_homedir_remove_for_user_if_owned().
* libuser's pkg-config file no longer refers to internally-used libraries.
  glib-2.0 and gobject-2.0 are still included because they are required to
  use the API anyway.
* When setting dates in shadow fields, avoid the special value 0 if the clock is
  incorrect.
* Miscellaneous cleanups.

0.59:
* Fixed security vulnerabilities:
  * Race conditions in copying and removing home directories (CVE-2012-5630)
  * Information disclosure when moving users' home directory (CVE-2012-5644)
  Related changes:
  - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGES: lu_homedir_move() and lu_homedir_populate()
    will refuse to use a pre-existing directory as a destination.
  - setuid/setgid bits are now preserved when copying regular files in home
    directories (from /etc/skel or when moving a home directory)
* Empty fields in /etc/shadow are now treated as "missing", like libc does.
  * Specific values of the attributes can be used to represent "missing data".
  * lchage(1) now handles missing fields on both input and output.
* Refuse to build when secure_getenv() is not available.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups.

0.58
* API enhancements:
  * New helpers for attribute access replace 4-5 function calls with 1:
    lu_ent_get_first_{string,id,value_strdup}(),
    lu_ent_set_{string,id,long}()
  * New header <libuser/fs.h>, providing lu_homedir_{populate,move,remove},
    lu_nscd_flush_cache(), and lu_mail_spool_{create,remove}.
  * lu_users_enumerate_by_group_full() and lu_groups_enumerate_by_user_full()
    are now fully supported.
  * New module-private function lu_util_append_values().
  * Documented that LU_*PASSWORD should not be manipulated directly.
* deleteUser in Python bindings now removes the mail spool instead of creating
  it.
* New warning in libuser.conf.5 about storing a LDAP password in system-wide
  configuration.
* Module interface ABI has changed.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups, quite a few memory leaks fixed.

0.57.7
* lu_users_enumerate_by_group_full() added, implemented ONLY for LDAP for now.
  Related functions and functionality in other modules will be added later.
  Applications are advised to NOT USE these functions yet.
* group/user list by name of a user/group now returns an error if the
  user/group was not found.  The Python bindings enumerateUsersFull and
  enumerateGroupsFull no longer crash in this situation.
* Updated translations.

0.57.6
* Make it possible to use ldapi: URLs by not trying to use TLS (based on
  a patch by <davide.principi@nethesis.it>).
* Hopefully fix races in test suite, causing failures on slower computers.
* Mark --help messages for translation and improve them a bit.

  module when /etc/shadow is not present)

0.57
* Resolve an ambiguity about "password" value format that could cause setting
  a known plaintext password in LDAP accounts: the "files"/"shadow" and LDAP
  modules may not be used together any more, and the module interface ABI has
  changed to support this.
* Don't authenticate the user (in lchfn, lchsh, lpasswd) if the application
  is not set*id and it does not need elevated privileges.  In particular, this
  allows the above programs to be used for LDAP administration by unprivileged
  users.
* Change default crypt_style to sha512.
* Don't abort on invalid ID values.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes.

0.56.18

  a number.

* When changing passwords, only silently ignore known shadow markers, not all
  invalid hashes

0.56
* Document the correct types used for attribute values.  Use these types for
