+openvpn (2.4.0-4) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ If you're upgrading a previous OpenVPN installation, you should check your
+ current CRL file expiraton date. "crl-verify" option now also checks that.
+ Regenerate your CRL file if the expiration date is in the past or your
+ clients won't be able to connect.
+
+ OpenVPN 2.4 will try to connect using IPv6 first if you're using a hostname
+ with both A and AAAA entries, if your VPN server is still running a
+ previous (<2.4) version a long wait may occur until your 2.4 client tries
+ with the IPv4 address.
