-Changes in version 0.15:
+Changes in version 0.16:
-The new option '--delete', which deletes files and directories from an
-archive in place, has been added. It currently can delete only from
-uncompressed archives and from archives with individually compressed files
-('--no-solid' archives).
+'chown' and 'chmod' are now called in the right order on extracion to
+preserve the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits of executable files.
-Multi-threaded listing of compressed archives with format violations (for
-example, an extended header without the corresponding ustar header) has been
-fixed.
+The return value of '--delete' when failing to delete a tar member not
+individually compressed has been fixed. It returned 0, but should be 2.
+
+The header <sys/sysmacros.h> is now #included unconditionally.
+
+The new chapter 'Portable character set' has been added to the manual.
