This file differentiates Mint and Elementary OS from Ubuntu + better than does /etc/os-release, and may also help with other + closely-related distributions. + +- Improvements to handling of case-insensitive string comparisons. These + are buggy on some EFIs, and such bugs affect things like dont_scan_* + blacklists, removal of rEFInd's own directory from scanning, matching of + keyword names in refind.conf, and even loading of icons. I've replaced + many calls to problematic functions with safer calls, which should help a + lot. There may still be problems on some systems with some computers, + though; as far as I can tell, the bugs are buried deep in some EFI + firmware, so I can only replace some of the most direct calls to + potentially buggy system calls. + +0.9.0 (7/26/2015): +------------------ + +- New icon for Kali Linux, submitted by Francesco D'Eugenio. + +- Minor code changes to ensure that rEFInd compiles with GCC 5.1.
