-libxkbcommon 0.3.2
+libxkbcommon 0.4.0
==================
-- Added XKB_KEY_XF86AudioMicMute keysym, to match xproto 7.0.24.
+- Add a new add-on library, xkbcommon-x11, to support creating keymaps
+ with the XKB X11 protocol, by querying the X server directly.
+ See the xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h header file for more details.
+ This library requires libxcb-xkb >= 1.10, and is enabled by default.
+ It can be disabled with the --disable-x11 configure switch.
+ Distributions are encouraged to split the necessary files for this
+ library (libxkbcommon-x11.so, xkbcommon-x11.pc, xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h)
+ to a separate package, such that the main package does not depend on
+ X11 libraries.
+
+- Fix the keysym <-> name lookup table to not require huge amounts of
+ relocations.
+
+- Fix a bug in the keysym <-> name lookup, whereby lookup might fail in
+ some rare cases.
+
+- Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation.
+
+- New API:
+ New keysyms from xproto 7.0.25 (German T3 layout keysyms).
+ XKB_MOD_NAME_NUM for the usual NumLock modifier.
+ xkb_x11_* types and functions, XKB_X11_* constants.
