 * Mon Jan 18 2010 Tim Waugh <twaugh@redhat.com> - 1.1.16-9
+- Clean up temporary files when localizing statereason (bug #552768).
 - Make sure serial device widgets are always initialized (bug #556488).
 - Handle errors more gracefully in userdefault.py (bug #556345).
 - Don't rely on cups-pk-helper being around (bug #556170).
