+New external programs and libraries:
+------------------------------------
+
+- LyX links now against libmagic (http://www.darwinsys.com/file/) if it is
+ available at compile time. This improves the file format detection of
+ included graphics and other files. The old builtin format detection code
+ is used if libmagic is not available.
+
+
+Known issues in version 2.1.0
+-----------------------------
+
+- LyX needs to be run under Python 2 and will not work properly on systems
+ where Python 3 is the default binary. See bug #7030 to know how to fix
+ this properly, since simple sheebang conversion in *.py files will not
+ be enough.
+
+Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.1.x
