+kmod 17
+=======
+
+- Bug fixes:
+ - Fix matching a "." in kernel cmdline, making garbage in the command
+ line be parsed as kmod options
+ - Fix man pages to clarify we don't fallback to parsing modules.dep
+ but instead we depend on modules.dep.bin (generated by depmod) to
+ be present
+ - Fix ELF parsing on 32 bit systems assigning the wrong class.
+ - Fix partial matches of search directives in depmod. Previously having
+ a line in depmod.conf such as "search foo foobar built-in" would cause
+ unpretictable results because foo is a partial match of foobar as well.
+ - Fix unaligned access in modinfo when getting the signature from a
+ module
+ - Make sure softdeps are treated as optional dependencies
+
+- New features:
+ - Accept special files given to "-C" switch in modprobe. This way it's
+ possible to skip system configuration with "modprobe -C /dev/null"
+ - Do not require xsltproc on released tarballs
+ - Don't use Werror anymore
+ - Add experimental python bindings, merged from python-kmod repository
+ (https://github.com/agrover/python-kmod)
+ - Parse softdeps exported by the kernel as
+ /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.softdep
+
+- Improvements to testsuite:
+ - Check the list of loaded modules after a test
+
