(change notes since autoproj 1.7.13 and autobuild 1.5.51 follows)
Please: if you are testing this, drop a note when you START testing and 
drop a note to say whether it works / it does not work

autoproj: 1.7.14.rc5
autobuild: 1.5.52.rc4

To install in an existing installation:

    gem install --prerelease autoproj autobuild

To bootstrap using the new bootstrap script, and the prerelease packages

    * save the autoproj_bootstrap script attached to this mail
    * add "dev" just after autoproj_bootstrap on the command line, e.g.

    ruby autoproj_bootstrap dev git git://gitorious.org/rock/buildconf.git

Change Notes
============

   * fix support for local package sets, i.e. package sets that are saved
     in autoproj/directory_name and are part of the main configuration
     VCS.
   * fix behavior of autoproj when adding a remote package set in
     autoproj/manifest and calling amake my/package right away. Until
     now, autoproj was yelling with a criptic message. It will now
     behave and check out the new package set.
   * add support for sourcing shell scripts from env.sh:
     Autoproj.env_source_file(path)
   * fix a Ruby 1.9 incompatibility
   * better performance in e.g. autoproj query and autoproj locate (this
     speeds up acd)
   * accept amake --rebuild the same way than amake --force was accepted
     until now
   * add support for including manifest.xml files in the package sets.
     This is meant to be used for external packages that do not provide a
     manifest. The manifests are listed in the package set's manifests/
     subdirectory and must match the package name, as e.g.
        manifests/external/yaml-cpp.xml
     inside the rock package set
     If both a package set and a package contain a manifest.xml, the one
     from the package set takes precedence.
   * fix problems with RubyGems < 1.8
   * remove usage of features deprecated in RubyGems >= 1.8
   * fixed issue in osdeps handling, where a default entry could be used
     instead of a matching specific entry
   * allow usage of metapackages as dependencies
   * fixed "autoproj status --local" for git repositories
