+CHANGES WITH 239 in spe:
+
+ * NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE NAMING CHANGES: systemd-udevd's "net_id"
+ builtin may name network interfaces differently than in previous
+ versions. SR-IOV virtual functions and NPAR partitions with PCI
+ function numbers of 8 and above will be named more predictably,
+ and udev may generate names based on PCI slot number in some cases
+ where it previously did not.
+
+ * AF_INET and AF_INET6 are dropped from RestrictAddressFamilies= in
+ systemd-logind.service. Since v235, IPAddressDeny=any has been set to
+ the unit. So, it is expected that the default behavior of systemd-logind
+ is not changed. However, if distribution packagers or administrators
+ disabled or modified IPAddressDeny= setting by a drop-in config file,
+ then it may be necessary to update the file to re-enable AF_INET and
+ AF_INET6 to support network user name services, e.g. NIS.
+
+ * When the RestrictNamespaces= unit property is specified multiple times,
+ then the specified types are merged now. Previously, only the last
+ assignment was used. So, if distribution packagers or administrators
+ modified the setting by a drop-in config file, then it may be necessary
+ to update the file.
+
+ * When OnFailure= is used in combination with Restart= on a service
+ unit, then the specified units will no longer be triggered on
+ failures that result in restarting. Previously, the specified units
+ would be activated each time the unit failed, even when the unit was
+ going to be restarted automatically. This behaviour contradicted the
+ documentation. With this release the code is adjusted to match the
+ documentation.
+
+ * systemctl disable/unmask/preset/preset-all cannot be used with
+ --runtime. Previously this was allowed, but resulted in unintuitive
+ behaviour that wasn't useful.
+
+CHANGES WITH 238:
* The MemoryAccounting= unit property now defaults to on. After
discussions with the upstream control group maintainers we learnt
other forms of resource accounting (CPU, IO, IP) remain off for now,
because it's not clear yet that their impact is small enough to move
from opt-in to opt-out. We recommend downstreams to leave memory

kernels is a necessity, -Dmemory-accounting-default=false can be used
to revert this change.

owned by those newly-created users, in which case

* INCOMPATIBILITY: as announced in the NEWS for 237, systemd-tmpfiles
will not exclude read-only files owned by root from cleanup.

released update. Packagers need to make sure that binaries
linking to libsystemd-shared.so are updated in step with the
library.
