+Release 1.6.1 (unreleased):
+
+ - If checksum is mismatched, and in verbose mode, present a corrected pre-fabricated checksum statement
+ to make it easy to update a port (jberry in r32441).
+
+ - Fixed the "Error: Unable to open port: invalid command name "ui_prefix"" runtime error on Panther
+ (eridius in r32525).
+
+ - Fixed the "Error: Unable to open port: invalid command name "ui_channels"" runtime error on Panther
+ (eridius in r32514).
+
+ - "port lint" now recognizes non-canonical modelines (afb in r32480).
+
+ - "configure.pipe" is now hackable from Portfiles (afb in r32430).
+
+ - MacPorts no longer installs the "base/config/mp_version" file, as the release version is now stored
+ internally in $macports::autoconf::macports_vesion (jmpp in r32353).
+
+ - Bail out with a suitable message if the requested port is not installed when polling its dependents
+ (jmpp in r32336).
+
+ - Fixed a Panther build failure due to missing sqlite headers (jmpp in r32212).
+
+ - Fixed a build failure by passing the base/src/cregistry/cregistry.a archive through ranlib (jmpp in r32105).

Release 1.6.0 (16-December-2007 by jmpp):

*) Fixed the "upgrade" target of the port(1) command to properly handle installed versions beginning with letters;
*) Improved the "variants" target of the port(1) command to behave like the "info" target to poll the requested Portfile directly
rather than the index for more up-to-date information, while also providing a --index flag for legacy behavior;
