Iotop has been converted to Python 3 and is now installed in sbin instead of bin. The display is adapted to the maximum pid width. Both total and actual disk bandwidth are included in the summary.
The netlink message parsing code was fixed to accept alignment padding. UTF-8 output is now forced even if the locale is misconfigured. The semantic of the 'a' key was changed to show stats since iotop was started.
There is a workaround for an ncurses bug where UTF-8 strings are misprinted. Ioprio support for the armel and hppa architectures was added. A possible incompatibility with Linux 2.6.37 on 64-bit systems was fixed. Iotop does not crash anymore when the locale is incorrectly configured.
