# Important changes
- Build System:

+ Allow to pack filename with spaces.
+ Replace gen_init_cpio by cpio.
+ Split output into levels.
+ Avoid copying files to temporary root.
+ Include `features/*/rules.mk` only once.

period from the start of operation with higher precision (`348ms`,
`3.45s`, `1.5m`, etc.).
+ Add bash-completion for some utilities.
- Feature system-glibc:
+ Do not remove the root password if it exists.
- Misc:
+ make-initrd: Add option to build initramfs for latest kernel.
+ depinfo: Rewrite firmware processing.
+ depinfo: Add option to show missing firmware.
+ depinfo: Add more archive suffixes.
+ depinfo: Treat the firmware field as a pattern.
