Version 1.6.8 of Mandos is released.  It is a minor bug fix release.

Note: From this release, the Mandos server requires Python 2.7.

Version 1.6.8 (2014-08-06)
* Client
** Bug fix: mandos-keygen now generates working SSH checker commands.
* Server
** Bug fix: "mandos-monitor" now really redraws screen on Ctrl-L.
** Now requires Python 2.7.

Debian package changes:

* debian/control (Source: mandos/Build-Depends-Indep): Since upstream
  now requires Python 2.7, depend on exactly the python2.7 package and
  all the Python 2.7 versions of the python modules.
  (Package: mandos/Depends): - '' - but still depend on python (>=2.7)
  and the generic versions of the Python modules; this is for mandos-ctl
  and mandos-monitor, both of which are compatible with Python 3, and
  use #!/usr/bin/python.

The recenly implemented feature of using SSH key fingerprints in the
checker commands had a small bug in it:  The checker commands generated
by mandos-keygen did not work.  To fix your existing commands, replace
the (unquoted) string "%%(host)s with the (similarly unquoted string)
%%(host)s" (that is, move the doublequote character from before the
percent sign to after the final s) in the "checker" commands in
/etc/mandos/clients.conf.

(As usual, Teddy has uploaded the package directly to Debian unstable.)
