** Description changed:

  [IMPACT]
  
  The sos team is pleased to announce the release of sos-4.3. This release
  includes a number of quality-of-life changes to both end user experience
  and for contributors dealing with the plugin API.
  
  [TEST PLAN]
  
  Documentation for Special Cases:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SosreportUpdates
  
  [WHERE PROBLEM COULD OCCUR]
  
  Regression could occur at core functionality, which may prevent sos (or
  its subcommand to work. I consider this regression type as 'low'. That
  is generally well tested, and we would find a problem at an early stage
  during the verification phase if it is the case.
  
  On the other end, regression could happen and are some kind of expected
  at plugins levels. As of today, sos has more than 300 plugins. It is
  nearly impossible to test them all.
  
  If a regression is found in a plugin, it is rarely affecting sos core
  functionalities nor other plugins. So mainly the impact would be limited
  to that plugin. The impact being that the plugin can't or partially can
  collect the information that it is instructed to gather.
  
  A 3rd party vendor would then ask user/customer to collect the
  information manually for that particular plugins.
  
  Plugins are segmented by services and/or applications (e.g.
  openstack_keystone, bcache, system, logs, ...) in order to collect
  things accordingly to the plugin detected or intentionally requested
  for.
  
  Sosreport plugins philosophy is to (as much as possible) maintain
  backward compatibility when updating a plugin. The risk that an ancient
  version of a software has been dropped, is unlikely, unless it was
  intended to be that way for particular reasons. Certain plugin also
  support the DEB installation way and the snap one (MAAS, LXD, ...) so
  all Ubuntu standard installation types are covered.
  
+ * Problem found and fixed during the packaging process:
+ 
+  ** sos-help module wasn't part of the build process
+  ** sos-help man page wasn't also not part of the build process nor mention 
in main sos man page
