+- Fixup theme setup in boot
+  
+  Make sure grub theme data is populated in the boot directory.
+  Checking only for the presence of the theme directory is not
+  enough. If the theme directory in boot does not contain the
+  requested theme it must be provided including a warning if
+  the theme data could not be found in the system

+Mon Mar 27 15:19:14 CEST 2017 - ms@suse.com
+  
+- Refactor method name of package manager interface
+  
+  The request_package_lock was renamed into request_package_exclusion
+  because that is the goal, to actually exclude(skip) a package. From
+  an implementation point of view this is done to set a lock in the
+  zypper case. However other package managers might do it differently.
+  The interface should stay consistent with regards to the user goal
+  and not with the package manager specific implementation. This
+  Fixes #248

+  
+- Added <oem-nic-filter> element
+  
+  Allow network interface names to be filtered by the given
+  regular expression. The expression is handled by the bash
+  regexp operator. Interface names matching the rule will be
+  filtered out, all others stay. It is also possible to pass
+  the variable kiwi_oemnicfilter as kernel command line in a
+  PXE deployment. Fixes #245
