Hi,

I'm happy to announce that I've just released ptxdist-2020.04.0.

This release contains two bigger changes. PTXdist no optionally (enabled
via 'ptxdist setup') permission files that are mostly compatible with the
format qemu uses for security_model=mapped-file with the 9p filesystem.
With this qemu can provide a 9p rootfs with the correct permissions.
Note: Currently host-qemu must be used for symlinks to work correctly.

The NFS server provided by 'ptxdist nfsroot' uses this as well. The
advantage over the current fakeroot based approach is, that permission
changes are persistent across NFS server restarts and it avoids problems
with fakeroot when the underlying filesystem is changed.

Detecting changes the package configuration was improved. All PTXCONF
variables are now evaluated in make before they are checked. This means
that indirect changes (e.g. in string variables that reference other
variables) are also detected. Some unwanted changes to the calculated hash,
due to ordering issues were fixed.
Note, that make >= 4.0 is needed for this to work. With older make versions
indirect changes to PTXCONF variables are not detected. Changes to rule,
menu files and patches are detected but this is quite a bit slower. The
last part was broken in previous PTXdist versions.

The rest are just the usual changes. Several packages from staging have
been removed. Other packages have moved from and to staging.
And there is the usual mix of new packages, version bumps and bugfixes.

Thanks to all contributors and - as always - the shortlog below.

Enjoy,
Michael Olbrich
