+Version 4.5
+===========
+
+Volker Quetschke (vq@openoffice.org)
+#i66385# Fix the handling of .<suffix> targets. Always treat these targets
+as meta targets regardless of the AUGMAKE (-A) status. Previously this was
+enabled when the AUGMAKE was *not* set to 'yes' or the -A switch was given.
+
+#i66083# We now stop with an error if AUGMAKE meta targets and regular
+targets are used in one rule definition. As the syntax of these target
+definitions is slightly different this hints to an error in the makefile,
+most probably a misspelled attribute or special target.
+
+#i48087#, #i64869# The parsing of %-target definitions was fixed and
+enhanced. Prior to dmake 4.5 only one %-target per target-definition worked
+reliably, now this works well, but to help projects that still use older
+versions a warning was added.
+
+It's not very nice to issue a warning for something that works now but
+didn't before. This was only done to aid development and will probably
+be removed in future versions.
+
+There was, and still is, that for a bug in dmake for %-targets with more
+than one (not indirect) prerequisite only the first prerequisite is used.
+This will be fixed in future versions but until this happens we issue a
+warning that prerequisites are ignored.
+
+#i65122# The :| rule operator was handled differently from what the man
+page said. The man page was adapted to reflect reality. Changing dmakes
+behavior to match the man page would have introduced a lot of compatibility
+issues.
