 scsi_id is a program to generate a unique identifier for a given SCSI
 device.
 
-It is primarily for use with the udev callout key. It could also be used
-for automatic multi-path configuration or device mapper configuration.

-Version 0.4 requires:

 - Linux kernel 2.6
 - libsysfs 0.4.0

+Changes since the last release:
+       
+       - Fix a bug introduced in version 0.6 so that buffer alignement
+         works on 64 bit systems. Without this fix, it crashes on 64 bit
+         systems.
 
-       - Support block device partitions
-
-       - Added a script to auto-generate udev rules. The script is not
-         installed but is part of the tarball.
-
-Detailed changes:
-
-       - Add man page verbage about usage with udev, and running via
-         hotplug
-
-       - Disable support for -e (all output to stderr) as it cannot be
-         used in any useful way, and the -c (device specific callout) as
-         the code is incomplete and has no users.
-
-       - Don't print errno for NULL return from sysfs_get_classdev_device.
-
-       - Get rid of dead/leftover code that checked if we are on a scsi
-         bus.
-
-       - ":" consistently in output messages.
-
-       - Add missing new lines for some error messages.
-
-       - open O_NONBLOCK so we handle tape drives without tapes loaded.
-
-       - Remove hacks based on KLIBC define to get around problems when
-         building with udev (udev libsysfs files were rearranged).
-
-       - As done in udev code, support partitions via looking for a
-         parent of the target path. Uses libsysfs functions to do most of
-         the work, and includes changing a lot of variables to be struct
-         sysfs_device instead of sysfs_class_device.
+       - Add $(QUIET) to sync up with the udev Makefile
