Changelog
=========
+- :release:`2.6.0 <2019-06-23>`
+- :feature:`1463` Add a new keyword argument to `SSHClient.connect
+ <paramiko.client.SSHClient.connect>` and `~paramiko.transport.Transport`,
+ ``disabled_algorithms``, which allows selectively disabling one or more
+ kex/key/cipher/etc algorithms. This can be useful when disabling algorithms
+ your target server (or client) does not support cleanly, or to work around
+ unpatched bugs in Paramiko's own implementation thereof.

technically a bug in how padding, or lack thereof, is
calculated/interpreted). Thanks to ``@parke`` for the bug report & Pierce
Lopez for the patch.
+- :support:`1440` (with initial fixes via :issue:`1460`) Tweak many exception
+ classes so their string representations are more human-friendly; this also
+ includes incidental changes to some ``super()`` calls.
+
+ The definitions of exceptions' ``__init__`` methods have *not* changed, nor
+ have any log messages been altered, so this should be backwards compatible
+ for everything except the actual exceptions' ``__str__()`` outputs.
+
+ Thanks to Fabian Büchler for original report & Pierce Lopez for the
+ foundational patch.
+- :support:`1311` (for :issue:`584`, replacing :issue:`1166`) Add
+ backwards-compatible support for the ``gssapi`` GSSAPI library, as the
+ previous backend (``python-gssapi``) has since become defunct. This change
+ also includes tests for the GSSAPI functionality.
+
+ Big thanks to Anselm Kruis for the patch and to Sebastian Deiß (author of our
+ initial GSSAPI functionality) for review.
+
+ .. note::
+ This feature also adds ``setup.py`` 'extras' support for installing
+ Paramiko as ``paramiko[gssapi]``, which pulls in the optional
+ dependencies you had to get by hand previously.
+
+ .. note::
+ To be very clear, this patch **does not** remove support for the older
+ ``python-gssapi`` library. We *may* remove that support in a later release,
+ but for now, either library will work. Please upgrade to ``gssapi`` when
+ you can, however, as ``python-gssapi`` is no longer maintained upstream.
+
+- :bug:`322 major` `SSHClient.exec_command
+ <paramiko.client.SSHClient.exec_command>` previously returned a naive
+ `~paramiko.channel.ChannelFile` object for its ``stdin`` value; such objects
+ don't know to properly shut down the remote end's stdin when they
+ ``.close()``. This lead to issues (such as hangs) when running remote
+ commands that read from stdin.
+
+ A new subclass, `~paramiko.channel.ChannelStdinFile`, has been created which
+ closes remote stdin when it itself is closed.
+ `~paramiko.client.SSHClient.exec_command` has been updated to use that class
+ for its ``stdin`` return value.
+
+ Thanks to Brandon Rhodes for the report & steps to reproduce.

Optional dependencies for GSS-API / SSPI / Kerberos
===================================================
-In order to use GSS-API/Kerberos & related functionality, a couple of
-additional dependencies are required (these are not listed in our ``setup.py``
-due to their infrequent utility & non-platform-agnostic requirements):
-
-* It hopefully goes without saying but **all platforms** need **a working
- installation of GSS-API itself**, e.g. Heimdal.
-* **Unix** needs `python-gssapi <https://pypi.org/project/python-gssapi/>`_
- ``0.6.1`` or better.
-
- .. note:: This library appears to only function on Python 2.7 and up.
-
-* **Windows** needs `pywin32 <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pywin32>`_ ``2.1.8``
- or better.

.. note::
If you use Microsoft SSPI for kerberos authentication and credential
delegation, make sure that the target host is trusted for delegation in the
active directory configuration. For details see:

+
+The ``gssapi`` "extra" install flavor
+-------------------------------------
+
+If you're installing via ``pip`` (recommended), you should be able to get the
+optional Python package requirements by changing your installation to refer to
+``paramiko[gssapi]`` (from simply ``paramiko``), e.g.::
+
+ pip install "paramiko[gssapi]"
+
+(Or update your ``requirements.txt``, or etc.)
+
+Manual dependency installation
+------------------------------
+
+If you're not using ``pip`` or your ``pip`` is too old to support the "extras"
+functionality, the optional dependencies are as follows:
+
+* All platforms need `pyasn1 <https://pypi.org/project/pyasn1/>`_ ``0.1.7`` or
+ later.
+* **Unix** needs: `gssapi <https://pypi.org/project/gssapi/>`__ ``1.4.1`` or better.
+
+ * An alternative is the `python-gssapi
+ <https://pypi.org/project/python-gssapi/>`_ library (``0.6.1`` or above),
+ though it is no longer maintained upstream, and Paramiko's support for
+ its API may eventually become deprecated.
+
+* **Windows** needs `pywin32 <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pywin32>`_ ``2.1.8``
+ or better.
