=head2 virt-dib was removed

virt-dib, a tool that built disk images using diskimage-builder descriptions has been removed.  It only supported an older version of the diskimage-builder metadata.  See also: L<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1910039>

=head2 virt-builder

L<virt-builder(1)> now prints better error messages when a specific URL cannot be downloaded.

=head2 virt-builder-repository

Fix GPG repository signing (thanks Allard Berends).

=head2 virt-customize

New L<virt-customize(1)> I<--chown> and I<--tar-in> options.  (Also available in virt-builder and virt-sysprep.)

=head2 virt-diff

L<virt-diff(1)> no longer considers C<st_dev> and C<st_ino> fields, which means that guests where a file has moved across a mountpoint but is otherwise identical (size, path, etc) will not show up as a difference.

=head2 virt-drivers

L<virt-drivers(1)> a tool which looks at the device drivers needed by a guest, can now look up vendor and device names using the PCI and USB IDs databases.

=head2 Common changes

The common I<--key> option now recognizes LVM names like F</dev/mapper/rhel_bootp--73--75--123-root> (Laszlo Ersek).

The I<--key> option also supports a new S<I<--key all:...>> selector to try the same key on all devices.

=head2 Зміни у збиранні

Support for OCaml 5, and OCaml E<ge> 4.07 is now the minimum (thanks Guillaume Munch-Maccagnoni, Jerry James, Josh Berdine, Jürgen Hötzel, Vincent Laviron).

Fix compatibility issues with libxml2 2.12.

=head2 Внутрішня частина роботи програми

Fix an off-by-one error which caused very rare crashes in some of the virt tools.
