* Add detection of Circle Linux (Bella Zhang).
* Add support for LoongArch (liuxiang).
* Add detection of Kylin (grass-lu).
* Add detection of openEuler (Wang Guoquan).
* PARTUUID and PARTLABEL are now resolved in guest /etc/fstab.
* New APIs findfs_partuuid and findfs_partlabel. These can be
used to efficiently look up a filesystem by its GPT partition
UUID or label.
* Support for the following inactive or infrequently used device
types has been removed: Gluster, Sheepdog, TFTP.
* Add GOST R34.11-94 message digest algorithm to checksum APIs
(Alexey Shabalin).
* Allow nbd+unix:// URIs (NBD over Unix domain socket) in
guestfish and other places.
* Various part_* (partition) APIs related to GPT have been
reimplemented to use util-linux sfdisk instead of sgdisk.
Util-linux is more widely available, so this reduces
dependencies in the common case. One optional API remains that
still uses sgdisk. (Thanks Yongkui Guo).
* Add cipher suboption to cryptsetup_open (Jonatan Pålsson).
* Because of a bug, the part_get_gpt_attributes API could
truncate the return value from 64 to 32 bits. This has been
fixed.
* Libguestfs will now no longer recommend using
LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct. This was shown previously when
libvirt failed to start the appliance. However it is felt that
this now does more harm than good.
* Fix generation of virt-customize --chown parameter (Yongkui Guo)
* In the appliance, reduce boot time when dhcp isn't needed

* The Python bindings now use bytes (instead of str) for the
event callback message, since it may contain arbitrary 8 bit
data
Fix a rare crash, and avoid memory leaks in event callbacks
* Support for OCaml 5, and OCaml ≥ 4.07 is now the minimum
* The OCaml bindings now release the runtime lock around calls
to guestfs_close, since that call might be long-running (for
example it might have to shut down the appliance and synch disks).
* Support OpencloudOS
* SELinux relabelling now runs in parallel, meaning it's a lot
quicker
* Add support for lzma and zstd compression methods in tar APIs
(like guestfs_tar_in)
* guestfs_pvs_full previously didn't always return the correct
device names. This has now been fixed.
* guestfs_btrfs_filesystem_balance fixed so it now works with
more modern btrfs tools (Jürgen Hötzel).
* The guestfish(1) --key option now recognizes LVM names like
/dev/mapper/rhel_bootp--73--75--123-root
* guestfish --key option also supports a new --key all:...
selector to try the same key on all devices.
* In guestmount(1) avoid calling fclose(NULL) on error paths,
which might have caused a crash on some platforms.

* https://libguestfs.org/guestfs-release-notes-1.50.1.html
* Inspection
When listing the packages in RPM-based guests, the inspection
API no longer checks package signatures. This is because the
newer librpm used by libguestfs does not understand signatures
stored in older guests, such as SHA1 used by RHEL 6 (thanks
Panu Matilainen).
"guestfs_inspect_get_hostname" in guestfs(3) can now handle
/etc/hostname files containing comments (thanks Dawid Zamirski).
"guestfs_file_architecture" in guestfs(3) can now parse files
using zstd compression.
"guestfs_inspect_get_osinfo" in guestfs(3) now returns the
correct osinfo field for Windows 11. However because of
decisions made by Microsoft, these guests still return product
name and other strings identifying as Windows 10 (thanks Yaakov
Selkowitz, Yongkui Guo).
* New APIs
"guestfs_device_name" in guestfs(3) is a new API to read the
device name associated with a drive, for example calling this
with 0 will return /dev/sda.
"guestfs_clevis_luks_unlock" in guestfs(3) is a new API for
unlocking disks using the Clevis/Tang network-based full disk
encryption scheme. Furthermore implement this in guestfish and
guestmount (Laszlo Ersek).
"guestfs_inspect_get_build_id" in guestfs(3) is a new API for
reading the build ID from some Linux and Windows guests. It is
not widely used on Linux, but for Windows it is vital for
identifying Windows 11.
* Other API changes

* This release has moved many virt tools like virt-builder,
virt-cat, virt-customize, virt-df, etc. to the guestfs-tools

* gnulib is no longer bundled with libguestfs, making builds from

* Perl Sys::Virt (libvirt bindings for Perl) are no longer

* We now use the qemu / libvirt feature -cpu max to select the
best CPU to run the appliance.
* When passing the appliance filesystem UUID to supermin we now
read it directly out of the appliance instead of using the
file(1) program. This is more reliable.
* The qemu -enable-fips option is no longer used. It was not
needed and has been deprecated by qemu.
