- --------------------

Changelog:

1.5.0
	Bug fixes:
	* fixed a possible memory overflow in the RR parser
	* build flag fix for Sun Studio
	* fixed a building race condition in the copying of header
	  files
	* EDNS0 extended rcode; the correct assembled code number
	  is now printed (still in the EDNS0 field, though)
	* ldns_pkt_rr no longer leaks memory (in fact, it no longer
	  copies anything all)

	API addition:
	* ldns_key now has support for 'external' data, in which
	  case the OpenSSL EVP structures are not used;
	  ldns_key_set_external_key() and ldns_key_external_key()
	* added ldns_key_get_file_base_name() which creates a
	  'default' filename base string for key storage, of the
	  form "K<zone>+<algorithm>+<keytag>"
	* the ldns_dnssec_* family of structures now have deep_free()
	  functions, which also free the ldns_rr's contained in them
	* there is now an ldns_match_wildcard() function, which checks
	  whether a domain name matches a wildcard name
	* ldns_sign_public has been split up; this resulted in the
	  addition of ldns_create_empty_rrsig() and
	  ldns_sign_public_buffer()

	Examples:
	* ldns-signzone can now automatically add DNSKEY records when
	  using an OpenSSL engine, as it already did when using key
	  files
	* added new example tool: ldns-nsec3-hash
	* ldns-dpa can now filter on specific query name and types
	* ldnsd has fixes for the zone name, a fix for the return
          value of recvfrom(), and an memory initialization fix
          (Thanks to Colm MacCárthaigh for the patch)
        * Fixed memory leaks in ldnsd
