+libyaml-tiny-perl (1.56-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  The following incompatible changes are contained within this new upstream
+  version:
+
+        [INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE]
+
+        - Previously, YAML::Tiny was sloppy about file encodings.  It is
+          now strict.  The 'read' method and 'LoadFile' function expect
+          UTF-8 encoded files.  The 'write' method and 'DumpFile' function
+          produce UTF-8 encoded files.  The 'read_string' and
+          'write_string' methods and the 'Load' and 'Dump' functions
+          expect or generate (decoded) character data.
+
+        - Previously, some errors would throw exceptions and some would
+          return the error condition in $YAML::Tiny::errstr.  Now all
+          errors throw exceptions.  Use of $errstr and the errstr method
+          are deprecated. (David Golden)
