 rfkill -- NEW COMMAND for enabling and disabling wireless devices. This new
-implementation is based and backwardly compatible to the original rfkill from
-Johannes Berg and Marcel Holtmann.

 The command su has been refactored and extended to create pseudo terminal for
 the session (new option --pty). This new EXPERIMENTAL feature provides better
-isolation between root's terminal and unprivileged su session.

-uuidparse -- NEW COMMAND to provide details about types, variants and time
-hashed to the UUID.
+uuidparse -- NEW COMMAND to provide variant and type details for input UUIDs.
 
 The library libuuid and command uuidgen support hash-based UUIDs v3 (md5) and
 v5 (sha1) as specified by RFC-4122. The library also provides UUID templates
 for dns, url, oid, or x500.
 
 The library libblkid has been extended to support DM-integrity, HPE (aka
-extended-XFS) and UBI superblock. The library also provides new API to hide
-already detected signatures. This allows to gather all possible magic strings
-permutation for the device, and for example command wipefs prints complete list
-of all magic strings now.

-The libfdisk has been extended to use BLKPG ioctls to inform kernel about

-partition table, but untouched partition may remain mounted and used by system.
-Tne typical use-case is resize last partition on system disk.
