ChangeLog:

* Tue Jul 14 2015 Miloslav Trmač <mitr@redhat.com> – 0.113-4

Resolves: #910262, #1175061, #1177930, #1194391, #1228739, #1233810
* Fri Jun 19 2015 Miloslav Trmač <mitr@redhat.com> – 0.112-11
– Add BuildRequires: systemd so that %{_unitdir} is defined, to fix the build.
* Thu Jun 18 2015 Fedora Release Engineering <rel-eng@lists.fedoraproject.org> – 0.112-10
– Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_23_Mass_Rebuild
* Sun Jan 25 2015 Rex Dieter <rdieter@fedoraproject.org> – 0.112-9
– polkit doesn’t release reference counters of GVariant data (#1180886)
– fix ldconfig scriptlets (move to -libs subpkg)
* Sat Nov 8 2014 Colin Walters <walters@redhat.com> – 0.112-8
– Split separate -libs package, so that NetworkManager can just depend on
that, without dragging in the daemon (as well as libmozjs17). This
allows the creation of more minimal systems that want programs like NM,
but do not need the configurability of the daemon; it would be ok if only
root is authorized.
