  * Verbose log libproxy results if PX_DEBUG=1 is set.
  * BuildRequires: cmake >= 3.17.
  * Allow explicit request to probe an added repo's URL (bsc#1246466)
  * Fix tests with -DISABLE_MEDIABACKEND_TESTS=1
  * Add runtime check for a broken rpm-4.18.0 --runpostrans (bsc#1246149)
  * Add regression test for (bsc#1245220) and some other filesize related tests.
  * Fix addrepo to handle explicit --check and --no-check requests (bsc#1246466)
