The minimum version of Python required is 3.6. .PP Python bindings no longer use deprecated \f(CW\*(C`PyEval_ThreadsInitialized\*(C'\fR. .PP Python bindings now include type hints (Sam Eiderman). .PP Erlang bindings now use libei instead of liberl_interface (Sergei Golovan). .SS "Tools" .IX Subsection "Tools" \&\fBvirt\-get\-kernel\fR\|(1) can now find uncompressed kernels (Pino Toscano). .PP \&\fBvirt\-sysprep\fR\|(1) now regenerates the guest certificate store when a certificate is removed from the guest (Pino Toscano). .PP \&\fBvirt\-sysprep\fR\|(1) can now remove \s-1IPA\s0 enrollment files and Kerberos keytabs (Pino Toscano, Christian Heimes and François Cami). .SS "\s-1API\s0" .IX Subsection "API" \fINew APIs\fR .IX Subsection "New APIs" .PP \&\f(CW\*(C`cryptsetup\-open\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`cryptsetup\-close\*(C'\fR replace \f(CW\*(C`luks\-open\*(C'\fR, luks-open-ro and luks-close.
