+rsync 2.5.5 "Snowy River" (2 April 2002)
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * "make install-strip" works.  (Greg Louis)
+    * With --progress, when a transfer is complete show the time taken;
+      otherwise show expected time to complete. (Cameron Simpson)
+
+    * Make "make install-strip" works properly, and "make install"
+      accepts a DESTDIR variable for help in building binary packages.
+      (Peter Breitenlohner, Greg Louis)
+
+    * If configured with --enable-maintainer-mode, then on receipt of
+      a fatal signal rsync will try to open an xterm running gdb,
+      similarly to Samba's "panic action" or GNOME's bug-buddy.
+      (Martin Pool)
 
-    * With --progress, if we've finished transferring a file, show the
-      time taken; otherwise show expected time to complete. (Cameron
