Releases
========
-v1.7.7.3 <DATE>
+v1.8.0 <DATE>
---------------
- * Merge PR #28: https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/28 which adds a
- ssh-keygen like demo module. (Sofian Brabez)
+* #32: Raise a more useful error explaining which `known_hosts` key line was
+ problematic, when encountering `binascii` issues decoding known host keys.
+ Thanks to `@thomasvs` for catch & patch.
+* #33: Bring `ssh_config` parsing more in line with OpenSSH spec, re: order of
+ setting overrides by `Host` specifiers. Specifically, the overrides now go by
+ file order instead of automatically sorting by `Host` value length. In
+ addition, the first value found per config key (e.g. `Port`, `User` etc)
+ wins, instead of the last. Thanks to Jan Brauer for the contribution.
+* #36: Support new server two-factor authentication option
+ (`RequiredAuthentications2`), at least re: combining key-based & password
+ auth. Thanks to Github user `bninja`.
+* #11: When raising an exception for hosts not listed in
+ `known_hosts` (when `RejectPolicy` is in effect) the exception message was
+ confusing/vague. This has been improved somewhat. Thanks to Cal Leeming for
+ highlighting the issue.
+* #40: Fixed up & expanded EINTR signal handling. Thanks to Douglas Turk.
+* #15: Implemented parameter substitution in SSHConfig, matching the
+ implementation of `ssh_config(5)`. Thanks to Olle Lundberg for the patch.
+* #24: Switch some internal type checking to use `isinstance` to help prevent
+ problems with client libraries using subclasses of builtin types. Thanks to
+ Alex Morega for the patch.
+* [Fabric #562](https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/562): Agent forwarding
+ would error out (with `Authentication response too long`) or freeze, when more
+ than one remote connection to the local agent was active at the same time.
+ This has been fixed. Thanks to Steven McDonald for assisting in
+ troubleshooting/patching, and to GitHub user `@lynxis` for providing the
+ final version of the patch.
+* #5: Moved a `fcntl` import closer to where it's used to help avoid
+ `ImportError` problems on Windows platforms. Thanks to Jason Coombs for the
+ catch + suggested fix.
+* #4: Updated implementation of WinPageant integration to work on 64-bit
+ Windows. Thanks again to Jason Coombs for the patch.
+* Added an IO loop sleep() call to avoid needless CPU usage when agent
+ forwarding is in use.
+* Handful of internal tweaks to version number storage.
+* Updated `setup.py` with `==dev` install URL for `pip` users.
+* Updated `setup.py` to account for packaging problems in PyCrypto 2.4.0
+* Initial fork of Paramiko 1.7.7.1
+* Renamed package to 'ssh'
+* Added an extra `atfork()` call to help prevent spurious RNG errors when
+ running under high parallel (multiprocess) load.
+* Merge PR #28: https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/28 which adds a
+ ssh-keygen like demo module. (Sofian Brabez)
