Thanks to Github user `@enB` for + the catch. +* #85: Paramiko's test suite overrides + `unittest.TestCase.assertTrue/assertFalse` to provide these modern assertions + to Python 2.2/2.3, which lacked them. However on newer Pythons such as 2.7, + this now causes deprecation warnings. The overrides have been patched to only + execute when necessary. Thanks to `@Arfrever` for catch & patch. + + +v1.8.0 (3rd Oct 2012) +--------------------- + +* #17 ('ssh' 28): Fix spurious `NoneType has no attribute 'error'` and similar + exceptions that crop up on interpreter exit. +* 'ssh' 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. +* 'ssh' 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. +* 'ssh' 36: Support new server two-factor authentication option + (`RequiredAuthentications2`), at least re: combining key-based & password + auth. Thanks to Github user `bninja`. +* 'ssh' 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. +* 'ssh' 40: Fixed up & expanded EINTR signal handling. Thanks to Douglas Turk. +* 'ssh' 15: Implemented parameter substitution in SSHConfig, matching the + implementation of `ssh_config(5)`. Thanks to Olle Lundberg for the patch. +* 'ssh' 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: 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. +* 'ssh' 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. +* 'ssh' 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 +* 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.
