+systemd (253~rc2-1) experimental; urgency=medium
+
+ TuxOnIce is no longer supported directly (via an out-of-tree patch)
+ for hibernation. TuxOnIce users should instead use the environment
+ variable $SYSTEMD_BYPASS_HIBERNATION_MEMORY_CHECK=1 (i.e.: set it on
+ the kernel command line).
+
+ The Debian-specific /etc/default/locale will now be made into a
+ symlink to the distribution-agnostic /etc/locale.conf. The content
+ format is compatible, so at upgrade time if /etc/default/locale
+ exists it will be copied to /etc/locale.conf, if the latter does not
+ exist.
+ The Debian-specific /etc/timezone will no longer be supported by
+ systemd-timedated, as it is no longer useful and its functionality
+ has been subsumed into /etc/localtime, and tzdata will no longer
+ create it.
+
+ The journal 'audit' feature is no longer patched to be disabled by
+ default, and instead we rely on the fact that the unit
+ 'systemd-journald-audit.socket' is disabled by default. If you enabled
+ this in the past by setting 'Audit=yes' in a configuration file, you
+ will also need to enable the socket unit.

+
+ systemd-resolved has been split into a separate package.
+ This new systemd-resolved package will not be installed automatically on
+ upgrades. If you are using systemd-resolved, please install this new
+ package manually.

+
+ systemd-boot has been split into a separate package.
+ This new systemd-boot package will not be installed automatically on
+ upgrades. If you are using systemd-boot, please install this new
+ package manually.
+
+ The default boot loader in Debian is grub2. If you have not set up
+ systemd-boot manually, no action is required on your side.

+systemd (251.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ systemd-journal-gatewayd and systemd-journal-remote are now built
+ without the --trust option, in order to be able to switch away from
+ gnutls to openssl.

+
+systemd (247.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ systemd now defaults to the "unified" cgroup hierarchy (i.e. cgroupv2).
+ This change reflects the fact that cgroupsv2 support has matured
+ substantially in both systemd and in the kernel.
+ All major container tools nowadays should support cgroupv2.
+ If you run into problems with cgroupv2, you can switch back to the previous,
+ hybrid setup by adding "systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=false" to the
+ kernel command line.
+ You can read more about the benefits of cgroupv2 at
+ https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html

+systemd (247.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ KERNEL API INCOMPATIBILITY: Linux 4.14 introduced two new uevents
+ "bind" and "unbind" to the Linux device model. When this kernel
+ change was made, systemd-udevd was only minimally updated to handle
+ and propagate these new event types. The introduction of these new
+ uevents (which are typically generated for USB devices and devices
+ needing a firmware upload before being functional) resulted in a
+ number of issues which we so far didn't address. We hoped the kernel
+ maintainers would themselves address these issues in some form, but
+ that did not happen. To handle them properly, many (if not most) udev
+ rules files shipped in various packages need updating, and so do many
+ programs that monitor or enumerate devices with libudev or sd-device,
+ or otherwise process uevents. Please note that this incompatibility
+ is not fault of systemd or udev, but caused by an incompatible kernel
+ change that happened back in Linux 4.14, but is becoming more and
+ more visible as the new uevents are generated by more kernel drivers.
+
+ To learn more about the required udev rules changes please check the
+ "CHANGES WITH 247" section of /usr/share/doc/systemd/NEWS.gz.

+systemd (241-4) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ DRM render nodes (/dev/dri/renderD*) are now owned by group "render"
+ (previously group "video"). Dynamic ACLs via the "uaccess" udev tag are still
+ applied, so in the common case things should just continue to work.
+ If you rely on static permissions to access those devices, you need to update
+ group memberships accordingly to use group "render" now.

+
+systemd (236-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ DynamicUser=yes has been enabled for systemd-journal-upload.service and
+ systemd-journal-gatewayd.service.
+ This means we no longer need to statically allocate a systemd-journal-upload
+ and systemd-journal-gateway user and you can now safely remove those system
+ users along with their associated groups.

+
+systemd (231-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ This version drops support for running /etc/rcS.d SysV init scripts.
+ These are prone to cause dependency loops, and almost all Debian packages
+ with rcS scripts now ship a native systemd service. If you have custom or
+ third-party rcS scripts you need to convert them or change them to run
+ in rc2.d/ - rc5.d/; see this page for details:
+ <https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/pkg-systemd/rcSMigration>.

+systemd (224-2) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ This version splits out systemd-nspawn, systemd-machined, and machinectl
+ into the new "systemd-container" package. That now also enables
+ systemd-importd.

+systemd (220-7) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ The mechanism for providing stable network interface names changed.
+ Previously they were kept in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
+ which mapped device MAC addresses to the (arbitrary) name they got when
+ they first appeared (i. e. mostly at the time of installation). As this
+ had several problems and is not supported any more, this is deprecated in
+ favor of the "net.ifnames" mechanism. With this most of your network
+ interfaces will get location-based names. If you have ifupdown, firewall,
+ or other configuration that relies on the old names, you need to update
+ these by Debian 10/Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and then remove
+ /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. Please see
+ /usr/share/doc/udev/README.Debian.gz for details about this.
