+Changes from 0.7.2 to 0.7.3:
+
+ * Charts are now produced with Cairo and Pango, instead of libplot.
+ Without them, the new graphing features will not work. If you do
+ not have Cairo and Pango installed, you must run `configure' with
+ --without-cairo.
+
+Changes from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2:
+
+ * Updated Perl module interface.
+
+ * Value labels for long string variables are now supported.
+
+ * Missing values for long string variables are now supported.
+
+Changes from 0.7.0 to 0.7.1:
+
+ * Added a perl module to facilitate reading and writing of pspp system
+ files from perl programs.
+
+Changes from 0.6.1 to 0.7.0:
+
+ * Custom variable and data file attributes are now supported.
+ Commands VARIABLE ATTRIBUTE and DATAFILE ATTRIBUTE have been added
+ for setting and clear attributes. Support for attributes has also
+ been added to commands that read and write system files, such as
+ SAVE and GET, as well as to the DISPLAY command.
+
+Changes from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1:
+
+ * Statistical bug fixes:
+
+ - Report correct standardized regression coefficients in linear
+ regression output (bug #23567).
+
+ * Bug fixes that affect PSPP and PSPPIRE:
+
+ - Avoid crash with pie charts (bug #24014).
+
+ - Don't append % to count totals (bug #24003).
+
+ - Don't crash on bad input (bug #24031).
+
+ - Don't crash if "end data." is not left aligned (bug #24115).
+
+ - Change default workspace value to 64 MB, to avoid unnecessary
+ disk accesses on modern machines.
+
+ * PSPPIRE bug fixes:
+
+ - Add ".sav" or ".por" suffix to filename when saving with Save_As
+ (bug #23137).
+
+ - Make it possible to reopen the output window on Windows (bug
+ #24033).
+
+ - A POSIX regular expression library is now included and used
+ automatically if the host does not have one or has one that is
+ inadequate.
+
+ * Build fixes and changes:
+
+ - Work around bug in GSL that prevented build with recent GCC
+ versions without manually adding -fgnu89-inline to CFLAGS.
+
+ - Also warn about missing prerequisites as we encounter them (bug
+ #24445).
+
+ - Distribute necessary files to allow users working from the
+ distributed tarball to configure with --enable-gui-tools.
+
+ - Append $(EXEEXT_FOR_BUILD) to output file name when building
+ q2c, fixing build problems on Windows.
+
+ - GSL 1.8 or later is now required.
+
+ - Build errors with --enable-relocatable were fixed.
+
+ * The German translations were removed, since native German speakers
+ found them too poor to be useful.
+
