 Version 2.02.75 - 
 =====================================
-  Never scan a device which is using the error target.
+  Skip dm devices in scan if they contain only error targets.
   Fix strict-aliasing compile warning in partition table scanning.
   Add an option to automatically extend snapshots through dmeventd.
   Remove dependency on libm, floor() is replaced with integer algorithm.
