Release v2.2
============
* This release brings some critical fixes so an upgrade is highly
recommended, especially on x86_64 and Ubuntu.
* PRoot is now a lot faster: the speed-up can be up to 50% depending
on the kind of application.
* PRoot can now mount/bind files anywhere in the guest rootfs, even if
the mount point has no parent directory (and/or can't be created).
With previous versions of PRoot, that would created kinda black hole
in the filesystem hierarchy that might bug some programs like "cpio"
or "rpm".
For example, with the previous version of PRoot::
$ proot -b /etc/motd:/black/holes/and/revelations
proot warning: can't create the guest path (binding) ...
proot info: started
$ find /black
find: `/black: No such file or directory
$ cat /black/holes/and/revelations
Time has come to make things right -- Matthew Bellamy
And now::
$ proot -b /etc/motd:/black/holes/and/revelations
proot info: started
$ find /black
/black
/black/holes
/black/holes/and
/black/holes/and/revelations
$ cat /black/holes/and/revelations
Time has come to make things right -- Matthew Bellamy
* "/run" was added to the list of recommended bindings (-B/-Q).
* SH4 and ARM architectures are now officially supported.
