* Major changes in 0.63.0:
16
1) Support for cross-compiling has been added. This includes the
17
addition of $host and $build configuration variables, with
18
corresponding --host and --build command-line options. This
19
includes the addition of a new 'xapt' dependency resolver.
21
2) The deprecated 'internal' dependency resolver has been removed,
22
along with the configuration variables $apt_policy,
23
$check_depends_algorithm and $resolve_virtual, and the
24
command-line option --check-depends-algorithm. The 'apt'
25
resolver is the default replacement for 'internal'.
27
3) Support for watches has been removed. The configuration
28
variables $check_watches, $ignore_watches_no_build_deps and
29
$watches (and obsolete variables @ignore_watches_no_build_deps
30
and %watches) have also been removed.
32
3) sbuild-stats and support for build time and space statistics
33
recording has been removed. These statistics are recorded in
34
both the build log and are available as build metadata
35
internally. The statistics recorded in the database were not
36
particularly informative; storing the statistics in a proper
37
relational database is recommended. The configuration variables
38
$avg_time_db and $avg_space_db have been removed.
