+- Update to 1.9
+  + Substantially faster normalisation (and therefore instantiation)
+    in Py3.5+.
+  + // (floordiv) now follows the expected rounding behaviour when used
+    with floats (by converting to float first), and is much faster for
+    integer operations.
+  + Fix return type of divmod(), where the first item should be an integer.
+  + Further speed up mod and divmod operations.
+- Update to 1.8
+  + Faster mod and divmod calculation.
+- Update to 1.7
+  + Faster normalisation and fraction string parsing.
+  + Add support for Python 3.7.
+  + Built using Cython 0.29.
+- Changed %check to use %pytest_arch
