Sorry, I mean from 2.03 to 2.04.
Also, changes include:
=20
* pw_phonemes.c (pw_phonemes): Allow one or more capital letters
and one or more digits in the generated passwords.
(Addresses Debian Bug: #182595)
=20
* pwgen.1: Explain that human-memorable passwords are vulnerable
to off-line brute force attacks. (Addresses Debian Bug:
#276976)
=20
* pwgen.c, pwgen.h, pw_rand.c, pwgen.1: Make -A and -0 aliases to
--no-capitalize and --no-numerals, and make those options
work when --secure is specified.
=20
* pwgen.c, pwgen.h, pw_rand.c, pw_phonemes.c, pwgen.c: Add support
for the --symbols/-y option, which adds special characters
to the generated password. (Addresses Debian Bug: #154561)
=09
* pwgen.c: Add -H, --sha1 option, to allow computing reproducible
passwords, given a known file, and a known seed.
(ie: pwgen -H ~/my_favourite.mp3#olivier%guerrier.com@localhost gives me
a list of possibles passwords for my pop3 account, and I can
ask this list again and again). Feature suggested and
implemented by Olivier Guerrier <olivier%guerrier.com@localhost>.
=20
* Fix obvious spelling typo in pwgen.1. (Addresses Debian Bug
#311461)
