+drestic (1.5) stable; urgency=medium

+  * Fixed: WSL2 systemd user session support with automatic runtime directory recreation
+  * Added: fix-wsl target to auto-fix /run/user/UID on WSL restarts
+  * Improved: User-scope targets (status, backup-now, check-now, logs, config) now work reliably on WSL

 drestic (1.4.1) stable; urgency=high
 
   * Fixed: update.sh now properly replaces service file placeholders (was causing '/path/to/be/replaced' execution errors)
