    pyspread 2.4
    ============

    This is a bugfix release.

    Bug fixes:
    * Dependencies dialog improved for better readability in dark themes
    * About dialog now works without AUTHORS file to simplify deployment
    * Toolbar icon size can now be adjusted from settings.py

    Known issues:
    * Building the apidocs is failing.
    * Using pyspread with Wayland can result in key shortcuts that are
    triggered twice on each shortcut. This leads to unexpected behavior
    such as cut operations, with empty clpiboard content (cut is done
    twice). This issue can be fixed setting the environment variable
    QT_QPA_PLATFORM to
    xcb before launching pyspread:
    `export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb`
