+Please wait.
+Here's what I have yet to commit/upload:
+Version 1.152 - 27 Jul 2012, by Thierry Vignaud
+- add support for mini debug packages
+  (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/MiniDebugInfo)
+- fix typo that breaks emiting maven provides
+- document Mageia divergences with upstream
+- generate a perlapi-<version> provide when libperl.so is found
+  (inspirated from mdv (pok))
+- sync brp-compress with upstream rpm.org:
+  o add *.xz and *.lzma recompress support
+  o avoid some unnecessary command invocations in scripts
+  o make sure brp-compress doesn't go interactive in corner cases
+- sync find-debuginfo.sh with upstream rpm.org:
+  o add -r flag to find-debuginfo.sh to invoke eu-strip --reloc-debug-sections
+    (Mark Wielaard, 2011-05-25)
+  o create GDB index from find-debuginfo if possible (Tom Tromey, RhBug:617166)
+  o drop useless rpm5 bits (less divergence with upstream)
+  o generate debug symlinks for all filenames sharing a build-id (RhBug:641377)
+  o fix behavior on cross-directory hardlinks (RhBug:618426)
+- kill unused find-provides.perl.in
+- prevent RPM_BUILD_ROOT to break brp-* scripts if it contains spaces
+  (rpm.org#843)
+- use upstream brp-strip* as we provided older versions of upstream
+
+The question is: should we enable minidebuginfo by default?
+This adds 1-3% to each package but it makes us have usefufull traces by default
+(at least with function names)
+Not as good as having debug packages installed by default, but still better.
+This is enabled in FC18.
+
+Do we enable this?
