0.4.35 -- was not announced 
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

0.4.34 (May 7, 2013)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* deb: fixed some additional complaints by lintian (`#420`_, patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* rpm: add flags --rpm-autoreqprov, --rpm-autoreq, and --rpm-autoprov to tell rpm to enable that feature in the rpm spec. (`#416`_, patch by Adam Stephens)

0.4.33 (April 9, 2013)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Now supports npm, the node package manager. For example: 'fpm -s npm -t deb express'

0.4.32 (April 9, 2013)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* COMPATIBILITY WARNING: rpm: The default epoch is now nothing because this aligns more closely with typical rpm packages in the real world. This decision was reached in `#381`_. If you need the previous behavior, you must now specify '--epoch 1' (`#388`_, patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* python: new flag --python-obey-requirements-txt which makes a requirements.txt file from the python package used for the package dependencies instead of the usual setup.py dependencies. The default behavior without this flag is to respect setup.py. (`#384`_)
* deb: new flag --deb-shlibs to specify the content of the 'shlibs' file in the debian package (`#405`_, patch by Aman Gupta)
* deb: fixed a few lintian errors (empty conffiles, md5sums on symlinks, etc)
* Add '-f' / '--force' flag to force overwriting an existing package output path (`#385`_, Timothy Sutton)
* New flag: --no-auto-depends flag to skip any automatic dependencies that would normally be added by gem, python, deb, and rpms input packages.  (`#386`_, `#374`_; patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* gem: Use 'gem' command to download gems and read gem package information.  (`#389`_, `#394`_, `#378`_, `#233`_; patches by Pranay Kanwar and Chris Roberts)
* rpm: dashes are now replaced with underscores in rpm version strings (`#395`_, `#393`_, `#399`_;  patches by Jeff Terrace and Richard Guest)
* python: Only use the first line of a license; some python packages (like 'requests') embed their full license copy into the license field. For the sake of sanity and function with most packaging systems, fpm only uses the first line of that license.
* rpm: Add new 'none' option to --rpm-compression to disable compression entirely. (`#398`_, patch by Richard Guest)
* deb: Make dependencies using the '!=' operator represented as "Breaks" in the deb package (previously used "Conflicts"). (`#400`_)
* deb: Add md5sums to the debian packages which improves correctness of the package. (`#403`_, `#401`_; patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* rpm: Convert all '!=' dependency operators to 'Conflicts'. Previously, this only applied to packages converting from python to rpm.  (`#404`_, `#396`_; patch by Pranay Kanwar)

0.4.31 (March 21, 2013)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* rpm: new flag --rpm-use-file-permissions which try to create an rpm that has file ownership/modes that exactly mirror how they are on the filesystem at package time. (`#377`_, patch by Paul Rhodes)

* pear: add flags --pear-bin-dir --pear-php-bin --pear-php-dir (`#358`_, patch by Zsolt Takács)
* New 'source' type: empty. Allows you to create packages without any files in them (sometimes called 'meta packages'). Useful when you want to have one package be simply dependencies or when you want to spoof a package you don't want installed, etc. (`#359`_, 349; patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* solaris: Add --solaris-user and --solaris-group flags (`#342`_, Patch by Derek Olsen)
* gem: new flag --env-shebang; default true (disable with --no-env-shebang).  Lets you disable #! (shebang) mangling done by gem installation. (`#363`_, patch by Grier Johnson)
* deb: fix bug on changelog handling (`#376`_, patch by mbakke)
* rpm: fix --rpm-rpmbuild-define (`#383`_, patch by Eric Merritt)

* deb: Add --deb-field for setting a custom field in the control file.  For more information on this setting, see section 5.7 "User-defined fields" of the debian policy manual: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s5.7
* deb: Add --deb-recommends and --deb-suggests (`#285`_, `#310`_; patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* python to rpm: convert "!=" dependency operators in python to "Conflicts" in rpm. (`#263`_, `#312`_; patch by Pranay Kanwar)
* python: fix bug - ignore blank lines in requirements.txt (`#312`_, patch by Pranay Kanwar)

* rpm: Avoid platform-dependent commands in the %install phase (`#309`_, fixes 'cp -d' on OSX)
* python: ignore comments in requirements.txt (`#304`_, patch by Pranay Kanwar)

0.4.23 (November 26, 2012)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* The --directories flag is now recursive when the output package is rpm.  This makes all directories under a given path as owned by the package so they'll be removed when the package is uninstalled (`#245`_, `#293`_, `#294`_, patch by Justin Ellison)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Escape '%' characters in file names (`#266`_, `#222`_. Patch by John Wittkoski)

0.4.18 (September 25, 2012)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Fix regression in rpm building where the epoch in was missing in the rpm, but prior fpm versions defaulted it to 1. This caused rpms built with newer fpms to appear "older" than older rpms. Tests added to ensure this regression is caught prior to future releases! (Reported by eliklein)

* deb: add --deb-priority flag (`#232`_) for setting the debian 'priority' value for your package.
* add --template-value. Used to expose arbitrary values to script templates.  If you do --template-value hello=world, in your template you can do <%= hello %> to get 'world' to show up in your maintainer scripts.
* python: add --python-install-data flag to set the --install-data option to setup.py (`#255`_, patch by Thomas Meson)
* Reject bad dependency flags (ones containing commas) and offer alternative.  (`#257`_)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Fix some symlink handling to prevent links from being followed during cleanup (`#228`_, patch by sbuss)

* deb: --deb-compression flag: Support different compression methods.  Default continues to be gzip.
* new flag: --template-scripts. This lets you write script templates for --after-install, etc. Templates are ERB, so you can do things like '<%= name %>' to get the package name in the script, etc.

0.4.0 (March 18, 2012)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Complete rewrite of pretty much everything.

    * Otherwise, the 'fpm' command functionality should be the same
    * Please let me know if something broke!

* Now has an API (see examples/api directory)
* Also has a proper test suite
* Updated the rpm spec generator to disable all the ways I've found rpmbuild to be weird about packages. This means that fpm-generated rpms will no longer strip libraries, move files around, randomly mutate jar files, etc.
* Add --license and --vendor settings (via Pieter Loubser)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Add 'tar' source support. Useful for binary releases to repackage as rpms and debs. Example::

    fpm -s tar -t rpm -n firefox -v 4.0.1 --prefix /opt/firefox/4.0.1 firefox-4.0.1.tar.bz2

0.2.28 (May 18, 2011)

* Add '--replaces' flag for specifying packages replaced by the one you are building. This only functions in .deb packages now until I find a suitable synonym in RPM.
* Add --python-bin and --python-easyinstall flags. This lets you choose specific python and easy_install tools to use when building. Default is simply 'python' and 'easy_install' respectively.
* Add support for ~/.fpmrc - The format of this file is the same as the flags.  One flag per line. https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/issues/38. Example::

      --python-bin=/usr/bin/python2.7
      --python-easyinstall=/usr/bin/easy_install2.7
