+     roles, see API Changes.
+   - Run the daemon in the tests always with debugging information
+   - Use a colored log output on the console
+   - Add a test to check if installing from a CDrom works after the
+     transaction has failed
+   - Configuration file conflict prompts now default to replace old
+     configuration
+
+ * API Changes:
+
+   - Update to the PackageKit 0.8 system D-Bus interface
+     - Add support for the PackageKit RepairSystem and InstallFiles transaction

+     - Add the ARCH and NOT_ARCH filter
+     - Report the correct package id for download/install progress reports
+       by caching the ids
+
+ * Bug Fixes:
+
+  - Fix backwards compatibility for GLib.io_add_watch()
+  - Ensure that the default filesystem encoding is always set by defaulting

+     mod aliases, GStreamer codecs or language support
+
+   - get-license-key plugin: Add this new plugin which gets the uid,
+     the package name, a json oauth token identifieng the customer
+     and a server name to retrieve a license key and the path to store it to
+
+   - org.debian.apt D-Bus interface: 
+      o Add new AddLicenseKey method which allows to place a license key
+        file at the loaction specified in the record/control field
+	LicenseKeyPath of the corresponding package.
+      o Add the RebootRequired property. Should be quite self-explanatory
+

+        get_package_status_from_enum()
+      o Add ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED to indicate that a feature isn't yet implemented
+      * Add ERROR_SYSTEM_ALREADY_UPTODATE to indicate that there isn't any
+        need to upgrade the system
+      o Add STATUS_DOWNLOADING_REPO to indicate that the information of
+        available packages is downloaded from the repositories
+
+   - aptdaemon.errors:
+      o Add a new TransactionAlreadySimulating() error which gets emitted
+        if a transaction should be simulated but a simulation is already
+	performed currently
+ 
+   - aptdaemon.gtk3widgets.AptProgressDialog.run() is now deferable,
+     LP #819328

+CHANGES (0.43)
+ 
+ * Enhancements:
+
+   - If there are unsatisiefied dependencies show more details like
+     apt-get does
+   - Allow distributions to ship different lintian tag files (fatal and
+     non-fatal ones) - adds a depedency on lsb_release
+   - No longer take queued transactions into account to simulate
+     transactions (future status). The multi arch support adds to much
+     complexity.
+   - Automatically switch to non-interactive mode if the controlling terminal
+     of the client isn't available anymore
+   - Verify package names specified in aptdaemon DBus calls
+
+ * API changes:
+
+   - aptdaemon.gtkwidgets.AptProgressDialog.run() is now deferable,
+     LP #626798
+ 
+ * Bug fixes:
+   
+   - Wait for the lock after dpkg has been executed instead of failing
+     LP #698170, #665572
+   - Don't overwrite DBusException.args in TransactionFailed leading to
+     empty error messages

+     policy definitions, LP #690270
+   - Fix installing local packages which are not yet known to the cache
+   - Fix use of required_version in the gt3widgets, thanks pitti
+   - Fix the client add_repository call, thanks mvo

+     the sync() method of the transaction
+   - Call waitpid after reading the output from lintian, LP# 724859
+   - Allow package names containing an architecture separated by ":",
+     LP #750941
+   - gtkwidgets.AptProgressDialog.run() should call Transaction.sync() if
+     attach is True. Missing adoption to API changes.
+   - Don't segfault if we cannot read the status of the process holding a
+     lock - fixes LP #745517 
+   - Fix UnicodeDecodeErrors, LP #724735, #745261, #742051, #749505, #707490,
+     #707490, #708964, #747037 and #706572

+
+CHANGES (0.42):
+
+ - IMPORTANT SECURTIY FIX, see CVE-2011-0725
+   http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2011-0725
+   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/722228
+   
+   The UpdateCachePartially method allows to specify an alternative
+   sources.list snippet to only update the repositories specified in the
+   corresponding configuration file.
+
+   Aptdaemon did not restrict the path to the sources.list.d directory and
+   allowed to inject packages from malicious sources specified in a custom
+   sources.list and even to read every file on the system.
+
+
+CHANGES (0.41):
+
+ - Greatly enhanced test suite by moving to unittest2, allowing to perform
+   package operations in a chroot and running tests on a local session dbus:
+   "dbus-launch unit2 discover"
+ - Improved error reporting
+ - Improved open progress. Thanks to mvo!
+ - Use sudo to run linitian as the user of the transaction
+ - Several bug fixes
+
+* General API changes:
+
+ - Fix: Emit the properties and signals with the documentated static types.
+
+* gtk3widgets Python module:
+
+ - There is now a gtk3widgets module which uses GTK 3.0 and pygobject (with
+   introspection). gtk3-demo.py is a corresponding port of gtk-demo.py.
+
+* org.debian.apt.transaction D-Bus interface
+ 
+ - The sizes in the ProgressDownload are now of type long - following the API
+   changes in APT. Therefor the signature of the ProgressDownload struct
+   changed to "ssxxs".
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.40:
+
+* General:
+
+  - Checks .deb files with lintian before installing
+  - Apport integration provides additional information on exceptions
+  - Uses gettext domains in policy files
+
+* org.debian.aptdaemon D-Bus interface:
+
+ - Allow to specify the to be installed/removed version of package. The package
+   name and version are separated by "=", e.g. "xterm=258-1".
+   
+ - API BREAK: The CommitPackage method has got a new argument to downgrade
+   packages.
+   You have to specify the version of the to be downgraded packages.
+ 
+ - API BREAK: The InstallFile method now takes an additional argument force to
+   allow installing package files which violate the Debian/Ubuntu policy.
+
+ - Authentication for actions has been moved to the
+   org.debian.aptdaemon.transaction.Run(). This allows to simulate actions
+   without having to authenticate for it.
+ 
+ - Add a new transaction based action Clean() which allows to remove
+   cached downloaded package files.
+
+ - Add a new transaction based action Reconfigure() which allows to reconfigure
+   already installed packages using debconf.
+
+ - Add writable property PopConParticipation to control the participation
+   in the package popularity contest.
+ 
+ - Add writable properties AutoUpdateInterval, AutoDownload, AutoCleanInterval
+   and UnattendedUpgrade to control the behavior of the APT cron job.
+
+* console client:
+
+ - Add a --details option to show the version number of to be changed packages
+
+ - Add --clean, --reconfigure and --priority option
+
+* defer modules:
+
+ - Moved to a separate project python-defer
+
+* enums module:
+
+ - Add ERROR_UNREADABLE_PACKAGE_FILE and ERROR_INVALID_PACKAGE_FILE to provide
+   finer error messages
+
+* client module:
+ 
+ - The return value of wait=True in an async call is now the exit state of
+   the transaction instead of the Transaction instance. It behaves now
+   as documented and in the same way as sync calls.
+ 
+ - Add AptClient.clean(), see changes in the D-Bus interface
+
+ - Add AptClient.reconfigure(), see changes in the D-Bus interface
+
+* PolicyKit privileges:
+
+ - Add a new org.debian.apt.clean privilege for removing downloaded
+   package files. It is granted by default to all active sessions.
+
+ - Add org.debian.apt.change-config privilege for changing the APT
+   configuration.
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.33
+
+* org.debian.apt D-Bus interface
+
+ - Make AddRepository() and EnableDistroComponent() transaction based.
+
+ - Add a new UpdateCachePartially() method which allows to only update
+   the repositories from a given sources.list snippet.
+ 
+
+* org.debian.apt.transaction D-Bus interface
+
+ - Add a RunAfter() method to chain transactions.
+
+ - Add an Unauthenticated property to the transaction.
+
+
+* client Python module
+
+ - Adapt to changes in the D-Bus interfaces.
+
+
+* enums Python module
+
+ - Add new role enums ROLE_ADD_REPOSITORY and ROLE_ENABLE_DISTOR_COMP.
+
+
+* policykit1 Python module
+
+ - Raise an AuthorizationFailed exception in a non-interactive check if the 
+   user could obtain the privilege in interactive-mode (is_challenged)
+
+
+* errors Python module
+
+ - Make the AuthorizationFailed error an inheritance of NotAuthorizedError
+
+
+* PolicyKit1:
+
+ - Allow every active user to update the cache
+ - Merge install-packages, remove-packages and fix privilege into a new 
+   install-or-remove-packages one
+ - Merge add- and remove-vendor-key privileges into change-repository one
+ - Remove upgrade-system in favour of upgrade-packages
+ - Allow set-proxy and cancel-foreign only by auth_admin
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.32
+
+* PolicyKit1:
+
+ - Add a new privilege org.debian.apt.set-proxy which allows to set an http
+   proxy server for a transaction. Currently every active user is allowed to
+   set a proxy for his or her transactions.
+
+
+* entry points:
+
+ - Add modify_cache_before and modify_cache_after entry point which make
+   it possible for plugins to modify the to be installed or removed packages
+   of a transaction. See README.Plugins for further details.
+
+
+* client Python module:
+
+ - Allow to convert all methods into Deferreds by using the deferable_function
+   decorator, see below for more details.
+
+ - Add a downloads attribute to AptTransaction. It contains a dictionary of all
+   processed downloads. The key is the uri of the download. The value is a
+   tuple of status enum, short description, full size, downloaded size and a
+   status/error message
+
+ - Add a progress-download-changed signal to AptTransaction which is emitted
+   when a download progress information changed, see above.
+
+ - Implement the wait arguement in the AptClient methods which are transaction
+   based. If True the transaction will be started immediately and the method
+   call will return when the transaction is finished.
+
+ - Add add_vendor_key_from_keyserver method, see AddVendorKeyFromKeyserver
+
+
+* enums Python module:
+
+ - Add a set of DOWNLOAD_* status enumerations.
+
+ - Fix value of STATUS_DOWNLOADING: from status-downloadgin to 
+   status-downloading
+
+
+* defer Python module:
+
+ - Add inline_callbacks and return_value functions which allow to write
+   async code in a sync way. Works like the inlineCallbacks decorator from
+   the Twisted framework.
+
+ - Add deferable decorator which adds a defer attribute to the
+   decorated function and returns a Deferred instance. The callback of the 
+   Deferred will be passed as reply_handler argument and the errback as the 
+   error_handler argument to the decorated function.
+
+
+* gtkwidgets Python module:
+ 
+ - Add to the AptConfirmDialog two methods which allow to override the rendered
+   objects and icons: map_package and render_package_icon
+
+ - Add AptDownloadsView class, which allows to show the sub progress of each
+   download
+
+ - Rename AptTerminalExpander to AptDetailsExpander and add a terminal
+   attribute to the __init__ call, since the expander now also shows
+   the download sub-progresses.
+
+ - AptProgressWindow now sets the proxy and debconf frontend during the
+   run call instead of during the set_transaction call.
+
+
+* org.debian.aptdaemon.transaction D-Bus interface:
+
+  - Add a ProgressDownload property. It contains the last download progress
+    information that was recieved from APT. It is an array of uri, status enum,
+    short description, full size, downloaded size and an error/status message.
+
+  - Add AddVendorKeyFromKeyserver method to download and use a GnuPG which
+    is used for authenticating packages.
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.31
+
+* client Python module:
+  
+  - Add AptClient.enable_distro_component method, see EnableDistroComponent
+
+ 
+* org.debian.aptdaemon D-Bus interface:
+
+  - Add EnableDistroComponent method which enables a component for all distro
+    repositories, e.g. main or universe
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.30
+
+* client Python module:
+
+  - Change order of error_handler and reply_handler in the AptTransaction.run
+    method to be in sync with the other methods
+
+  - Add the dependencies, download and space attribute and the corresponding
+    *-changed signal to AptTransaction, see interface changes below
+
+  - Add a new AptTransaction.simulate() method, see interface changes below
+  
+  - The AptDaemonError stored in client.AptTransaction.error was replaced by
+    a errors.TransactionFailed error. The APtDaemonError has been removed
+    from the client module.
+
+  - The DBus exception will be converted to native ones which are shared
+    with the daemon. E.g. The DBusException with the error name
+    "org.debian.apt.TransactionRoleAlreadySet" will be a 
+    TransactionRoleAlreadySet instance instead. This makes error handling
+    easier since you can use try/except without having to compare the
+    _dbus_error_name attributes.
+
+
+* errors Python modules:
+
+  - Rename APTDError to AptDaemonError because of readabilty
+
+  - Add convert_dbus_exception decorator which converts DBus exception
+    raised in a function to native ones. Also takes asynchrous calls
+    into account.
+
+  - Move NotAuthorizedError from policykit1 to the errors module
+
+
+* enums Python module:
+ 
+  - Use strings instead of integers for STATUS_*, EXIT_*, ROLE_* and ERROR_*
+    enum. See interface changes for additional information
+
+  - Add new enum EXIT_UNFINISHED
+
+
+* org.debian.aptdaemon.transaction D-Bus interface:
+
+  - The Exit, Status, Role and Error property and the Finished signal now
+    use strings for the enums. This helps to make debugging a lot easier.
+
+  - Add Simulate method which calculates the dependencies, the download size
+    and the to be used disk space of the transaction. Furthermore it raises
+    a "org.debian.aptdaemon.errors.TransactionFailed" if the transaction
+    could not be performed.
+
+    The Simulate call also takes all previously queued or currently running
+    transactions into account. So you can simulate the removal a package
+    if the installation of it is still in the queue.
+
+  - Add new properties Dependencies, Download and Space, see above.
+
+
+API CHANGES 0.20
+
+You don't have to request a transaction, set it up and call the whished action
+on it aynmore. Instead you call the action, e.g. UpdateCache, on the daemon
+interface which will return the id of a newly created transaction. After settingit up you have to call its Run method.
+
+* org.debian.aptdaemon D-Bus interface:
+
+  - Add InstallPackages, InstallFile, RemovePackages, CommitPackages,
+    UpgradePackages, UpgradeSystem, AddVendorKey, RemoveVendorKey, UpdateCache
+    method. Each method creates a new transaction and returns its tid.
+
+  - Remove RequestTransaction method
+
+  - Add new FixIncompleteInstall method which basically runs dpkg --configure -a
+
+  - Add a new FixBrokenDepends method wich tries to correct dependencies
+
+
+* org.debian.aptdaemon.transaction D-Bus interface:
+
+  - Remove InstallPackages, InstallFile, RemovePackages, CommitPackages,
+    UpgradePackages, UpgradeSystem, AddVendorKey, RemoveVendorKey, UpdateCache
+    method. They are now part of the org.debian.aptdaemon interface.
+
+  - Add a Run method which queues the transaction.
+
+  - Add PropertyChanged signal - should be used instead of the deprecated
+    signals. Signal matchers are quite limited on the system bus by default.
+
+  - Add ProgressDetails, RequiredMedium, ConfigFilePrompt, ExitState, Error,
+    Locale, AllowUnauthenticated, Terminal, DebconfSocket, Packages,
+    MetaData and RemoveObsoletedDepends properties.
+
+    The Packages property keeps a lists of packages which should be installed,
+    reinstalled, removed, purged or upgraded. Currently this doesn't work for
+    UpgradeSystem.
+
+    The MetaData property allows clients to store additional meta data in the
+    transaction. See man page org.debian.apt.transaction(7) for the format.
+
+  - Rename the AllowCancel property to Cancellable and the AllowTerminal one
+    to TerminalAttached - helps to make a difference between allowing
+    from the client and daemon side e.g. AllowUnauthenticated.
+
+  - Remove Message signal and the concept of having non-critical fail states
+    on the daemon side. The decision is up to the client e.g. if a system
+    could not be fully updated.
+
+  - Remove the Role, Status, AllowCancel, AllowTerminal, StatusDetails,
+    Progress, ProgressDetails signal - PropertyChanged signal should be used
+    instead.
+
+  - Remove the Attach method - GetAll on the properties interface
+    should be used instead.
+
+  - Rename property ConfigFilePrompt to ConfigFileConflict and the method
+    AnswerConfigFilePrompt to ResolveConfigFileConflict
+
+
+* client Python module:
+
+  - The exit_handler was removed from the AptDaemonClient methods, instead it
+    now supports (reply|error)_handlers to call the method asynchronously and
+    furthermore a wait statement to return after the method is complete.
+
+  - Add public attributes to the Transaction class and remove get_* helpers:
+
+    role, error (stores an AptDaemonError instance), error_code, error_message,
+    exit_state, cancellable, term_attached, required_medium,
+    config_file_prompt, status, status_details, progress, progress_details,
+    paused, remove_obsoleted_depends
+
+    The properties are automatically updated by the PropertyChanged signal
+    matcher.
+ 
+ - Rename GObject signals of the Transaction class:
+
+    - role -> role-changed
+    - status -> status-changed
+    - allow-cancel -> cancellable-changed
+    - allow-terminal -> terminal-attached-changed
+    - status -> status-changed
+    - status-details -> status-details-changed
+    - progress -> progress-changed
+    - progress-details -> progress-details-changed
+    - config-file-prompt -> config-file-conflict
+
+ - Rename method config_file_prompt_answer to resolve_config_file_conflict
+ 
+ - Add GObject signals to the Transaction class:
+
+    - meta-data-changed
+    - paused
+    - resumed
+    - locale-changed
+    - allow-unauthenticated-changed
+    - remove-obsoleted-depends-changed
+    - debconf-socket-changed
+ 
+ - The methods Transaction.set_(locale|allow_unauthenticated|data|
+   debconf_socket|remove_obsoleted_depends) reply with the transaction
+   instance if called async. This makes queing much easier.
+ 
+ - Remove messages attribute from the Transaction class, see above
+
+ - Remove Transaction.attach method in favour of a new sync method which uses
+   the GetAll method on the D-Bus properties interface.
+
+ - Add set_meta_data method which accepts pairs of key=value
+
+
+* PyGTK widgtes:
+
+ - On the one hand the run method of AptProgressDialog doesn't provide a way
+   to wait until the transaction is done anymore (by iterating on pending gtk
+   events), but on the other hand it now allows to show an error dialog if
+   required (show_error argument) or to close the progress window 
+   automatically when the transaction is finished (close_on_finished arguement).
+
+ - Rename AptConfigFilePromptDialog to AptConfigFileConflictDialog
