given the "modules" argument, use "read -r" and ignore ${target}
variable (left over from code above it).

Version 1.7.1 (2015-10-24)
88
* Client
89
** Bug fix: Can now really find Mandos server even if the server has
90
an IPv6 address on a network other than the one which the Mandos
91
server is on.
92
93
Version 1.7.0 (2015-08-10)

** The D-Bus API now provides the standard D-Bus ObjectManager
100
interface, and deprecates older functionality. See the DBUS-API
101
file for the currently recommended API. Note: the original API
102
still works, but is deprecated.
103
* Client
104
** Can now find Mandos server even if the server has an IPv6 address
105
on a network without IPv6 Router Advertisment (like if the Mandos
106
client itself is the router, or there is an IPv6 router advertising
107
a network other than the one which the Mandos server is on.)
108
** Use a better value than 1024 for the default number of DH bits.
109
This better value is either provided by a DH parameters file (see
110
below) or an appropriate number of DH bits is determined based on
111
the PGP key.

113
"Checker" variable even if the SSH server on the Mandos client has
114
multiple SSH key types.

** Can now use pre-generated Diffie-Hellman parameters from a file.
116
117

137
* Client
138
** If client host has an SSH server, "mandos-keygen --password" now
139
outputs "checker" option which uses "ssh-keyscan"; this is more
140
secure than the default "fping" checker.
141

142

151
** Give better error messages when run without sufficient privileges
152

153
failed, not if it failed and was unnecessary.

165
specifies, like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mandos or
166
/usr/lib64/mandos.
167

206
well as the $DEVICE environment variable for the network hooks) is
207
now a comma-separated list of interfaces to use.
208
209
Version 1.5.5 (2012-06-01)

247
To facilitate this, the client now prefers network interfaces which
248
are up (if any) over all other interfaces.

251
restarts.
252

254
** Bug fix: Send corrent D-Bus type in PropertyChanged for
255

274
controlled by new "extended_timeout" setting.
275
** New domain name: "fukt.bsnet.se" changes to "recompile.se". This
276
also affects the D-Bus bus and interface names (old names still
277
work). Users should start using the new names immediately.
278
** New D-Bus Client object properties "Expires" and "ExtendedTimeout";
279
