+  * All helper programs are now detected from ``$PATH`` during runtime
+
+    All of the code was now converted to dynamically look up helper programs
+    in ``$PATH`` rather than doing the lookup at build time and then compiling
+    in the result.
+
+    Programs ``mount``, ``umount``, ``mkfs``, ``modprobe``, ``rmmod``,
+    ``numad``, ``dmidecode``, ``ip``, ``tc``, ``mdevctl``, ``mm-ctl``,
+    ``iscsiadm``, ``ovs-vsctl``, ``pkttyagent``, ``bhyveload``, ``bhyvectl``,
+    ``bhyve``, ``ifconfig``, ``vzlist``, ``vzctl``, ``vzmigrate``, and the
+    tools from the lvm suite (``vgchange``, ``lvcreate``, etc..) are now not
+    needed during build and will still work properly if placed in ``$PATH``.
+

Consider placing this into the **Packaging changes**, don't think this
is tha much interesting to end users.

+  * qemu: Improve accuracy of FDC/floppy device support statement in 
capabilities XML
+
+    The data is now based on the presence of the controller in qemu rather than
+    just a denylist of machine types where floppies not work.
+
* **Bug fixes**

  * qemu: Fix failure when reverting to internal snapshots
