==
-The “poorly concealed wrestlers” release.
+The “don't stand in the poison cloud” release.
-Security fixes:
+Dependencies:
+
+• dbus-daemon and dbus-daemon-launch-helper now require libdbus. They
+ were previously linked to a static version of libdbus.
+
+• The tests no longer require dbus-glib in order to exercise the libdbus
+ shared library; they are always linked to libdbus now.
+
+Build-time configuration:
+
+• The new --enable-user-session option, off by default, can be enabled
+ by OS integrators intending to use systemd to provide a session bus
+ per user (in effect, treating all concurrent graphical and non-graphical
+ login sessions as one large session)
+
+Enhancements:
+
+• All executables are now linked dynamically to libdbus.
+ (fd.o #83115; Bertrand SIMONNET, Simon McVittie, Ralf Habacker)
+
+• On platforms that support them (GNU libc and possibly others),
+ libdbus now has versioned symbols for its public API.
+ All public symbols (visible in the header files) are currently
+ versioned as LIBDBUS_1_3; private symbols starting with _dbus or
+ dbus_internal have a version that changes with each release, and
+ must not be used by applications. (also fd.o #83115)
+
+• New listenable address mode "unix:runtime=yes" which listens on
+ a real filesystem (non-abstract) socket $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus
+ (fd.o #61303; Colin Walters, Alexander Larsson, Simon McVittie)
+
+• Add optional systemd units for a per-user bus listening on
+ $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus (fd.o #61301; Simon McVittie, Colin Walters)
+
+• On Unix platforms, both libdbus and "dbus-launch --autolaunch"
+ default to connecting to $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus if it is a socket
+ (also fd.o #61301)
+
+• New dbus-update-activation-environment tool uploads environment
+ variables to "dbus-daemon --session" and optionally "systemd --user",
+ primarily as a way to keep the per-user bus compatible with
+ distributions' existing X11 login scripts (also fd.o #61301)
+
+• <includedir/> elements in dbus-daemon configuration are now silently
+ ignored if the directory does not exist. (fd.o #89280, Dimitri John Ledkov)
+
+• Add microsecond-resolution timestamps to the default output of
+ dbus-monitor and dbus-send (fd.o #88896; Ralf Habacker, Simon McVittie)
+
+Fixes:
+
+• Fix a race condition in the 'monitor' test introduced in 1.9.10
+ (fd.o #89222, Simon McVittie)
+
+D-Bus 1.9.12 (2015-02-19)
+==
+
+The “monster lasagna” release.
+
+Dependencies:
+
+• Ducktype and yelp-tools are now required to build complete documentation
+ (they are optional for normal builds).
+
+Enhancements:
+
+• D-Bus Specification version 0.26
+ · GetConnectionCredentials can return LinuxSecurityLabel or WindowsSID
+ · document the BecomeMonitor method
+
+• On Linux, add LinuxSecurityLabel to GetConnectionCredentials
+ (fd.o #89041; Tyler Hicks, Simon McVittie)
+
+• On Linux, add support for AppArmor mediation of message sending and
+ receiving and name ownership (paralleling existing SELinux mediation
+ support), and eavesdropping (a new check, currently AppArmor-specific)
+ (fd.o #75113; John Johansen, Tyler Hicks, Simon McVittie)
+
+• In dbus-send and dbus-monitor, pretty-print \0-terminated bytestrings
+ that have printable ASCII contents; we previously only did this for
+ unterminated bytestrings (fd.o #89109, Simon McVittie)
+
+• Add a guide to designing good D-Bus APIs (fd.o #88994, Philip Withnall)
+
+• On Windows, add WindowsSID to GetConnectionCredentials
+ (fd.o #54445, Ralf Habacker)
+
+• Improve clarity of dbus-monitor --profile output and add more columns
+ (fd.o #89165, Ralf Habacker)
+
+• Add a man page for dbus-test-tool, and build it under CMake as well
+ as Autotools (fd.o#89086, Simon McVittie)
+
+• If dbus-daemon was compiled with --enable-verbose, add a D-Bus API
+ to control it at runtime, overriding the DBUS_VERBOSE environment variable
+ (fd.o #88896, Ralf Habacker)
+
+Fixes:
+
+• Reduce the number of file descriptors used in the fd-passing test,
+ avoiding failure under the default Linux fd limit, and automatically
+ skip it if the rlimit is too small (fd.o #88998, Simon McVittie)
+
+D-Bus 1.9.10 (2015-02-09)
+==
+
+The “sad cyborgs” release.
+
+Security fixes merged from 1.8.16:
• Do not allow non-uid-0 processes to send forged ActivationFailure
messages. On Linux systems with systemd activation, this would
