+Title: New chrpath release 0.15
+Tags: english, debian
+Date: 2013-11-24 09:30
+
+<p>After many years break from the package and a vain hope that
+development would be continued by someone else, I finally pulled my
+acts together this morning and wrapped up a new release of chrpath,
+the command line tool to modify the rpath and runpath of already
+compiled ELF programs.  The update was triggered by the persistence of
+Isha Vishnoi at IBM, which needed a new config.guess file to get
+support for the ppc64le architecture (powerpc 64-bit Little Endian) he
+is working on.  I checked the
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/chrpath">Debian</a>,
+<a href="https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chrpath">Ubuntu</a> and
+<a href="https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/chrpath">Fedora</a>
+packages for interesting patches (failed to find the source from
+OpenSUSE and Mandriva packages), and found quite a few nice fixes.
+These are the release notes:</p>
+
+<p>New in 0.15 released 2013-11-24:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+  <li>Updated config.sub and config.guess from the GNU project to work
+   with newer architectures.  Thanks to isha vishnoi for the heads
+   up.</li>
+
+  <li>Updated README with current URLs.</li>
+
+  <li>Added byteswap fix found in Ubuntu, credited Jeremy Kerr and
+   Matthias Klose.</li>
+
+  <li>Added missing help for -k|--keepgoing option, using patch by
+   Petr Machata found in Fedora.</li>
+
+  <li>Rewrite removal of RPATH/RUNPATH to make sure the entry in
+   .dynamic is a NULL terminated string.  Based on patch found in
+   Fedora credited Axel Thimm and Christian Krause.</li>
+
+</ul>
+
+<p>You can
+<a href="https://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=31052">download the
+new version 0.15 from alioth</a>.  Please let us know via the Alioth
+project if something is wrong with the new release.  The test suite
+did not discover any old errors, so if you find a new one, please also
+include a testsuite check.</p>
