Version 1.6.3 of Mandos is released.  This is a minor release, meant to
officially release the most recent improvements.

Important Security Note: Those brave enough to have run an *unreleased*
version, compiled from source code *after* version 1.6.2 but *before*
this release, *might* have to fix the permissions of the new location of
the plugin.d directory to be "700", or "o=rwx".  Those who run
unreleased source code are presumed to know how to do this. :)

NEWS file excerpt:

Version 1.6.3 (2014-01-21)
* Server
** Add systemd support.
** For PID file, fall back to /var/run if /run does not exist.
* Client
** Moved files from /usr/lib/mandos to whatever the architecture
   specifies, like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mandos or
   /usr/lib64/mandos.

Debian package changes:

* debian/control (Build-Depends): Added "systemd".
* debian/mandos.dirs (lib/systemd/system): New.
* debian/mandos-client.README.Debian: Refer to architecture libdir.
* debian/control (mandos/Depends): Add "avahi-daemon (>= 0.6.31-3) |
                                   systemd-sysv".
* debian/mandos.postinst: If avahi-daemon is version 0.6.31-2 or older,
                          edit /etc/init.d script headers Required-Start
                          and Required-Stop to have "avahi" instead of
                          "avahi-daemon", before insserv(8) sees it.
* debian/mandos-client.lintian-overrides: Libdir changes.
* debian/rules (override_dh_fixperms): - '' -
