 New in 1.15.1:
 
+* Bugs fixed:
+
+  - The code has been adapted to remove a warning present since Perl
+    5.22 stating that "Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated".
+    This warning has become an hard error in Perl 5.26 (bug#22372).
+
+  - The generated Makefiles do not rely on the obsolescent GZIP
+    environment variable which was used for passing arguments to
+    'gzip'.  Compatibility with old versions has been
+    preserved. (bug#20132)
+
 * Miscellaneous changes:
 
   - Support the Windows version of the Intel C Compiler (icl) in the
-    'compile' script in the same way the (compatible) Microsoft C Compiler
-	is supported.
+    'compile' script in the same way the (compatible) Microsoft C
+    Compiler is supported.
