Release notes

    * systemd-logind's integration with the UAPI.1 Boot Loader
      Specification (which allows the systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=
      switch to work) so far has supported a special directory
      /run/boot-loader-entries/ which allowed defining boot loader entries
      outside of the ESP/XBOOTLDR partition for compatibility with legacy
      systems that do not natively implement UAPI.1. However, it appears
      that (to our knowledge) it is not actually being used by any project
      (quite unlike UAPI.1 itself, which found adoption far beyond
      systemd), and its implementation is incomplete. With the future 262
      release we intend to remove support for /run/boot-loader-entries/ and
      related interfaces, in order to simplify our codebase. Support for
      UAPI.1 is – of course – kept in place.

    * The experimental "systemd-sysupdated" D-Bus API is going to be
      removed in the next release. The plan is that in its place
      clients should directly talk to systemd-sysupdate (i.e. the backend
      of "systemd-sysupdated") via Varlink IPC. The "updatectl" tool will
      be reworked along these lines.
