* NEWS *

debuginfod-find: Fixed caching bug preventing user-cancelled downloads
    from being re-downloaded at a later time.

elfclassify: New options --has-debug-sections and --any-ar-member.

elflint: Presence of vendor- and application-specific ELF note types no
    longer triggers compliance errors.

libdwfl_stacktrace: New function dwflst_sample_getframes.  The
    libdwfl_stacktrace library interface is experimental and may be
    subject to API/ABI changes.

libelf: Manual pages have been added for many libelf library functions.
    Additional manual pages are planned for future releases.

readelf: Up to 13% faster when using the -N option.
