+0.9.20 upgrade notes:
+
+Some of the plugin names and/or their parameters have changed since the
+old (0.9.7) SlackBuild.
+
+If you're upgrading from 0.9.7, be aware that any of your scripts
+or projects that use caps (e.g. Ardour sessions, or jack-rack presets)
+will need updating. For Ardour 2.x, if the changes prevent your session
+from loading, try:
+
+- Make a backup of your session directory (done with cp or tar, whatever).
+- Start ardour2 with the -d (or --disable-plugins) option, load the session.
+- Remove the offending plugins from their tracks or busses.
+- Save and exit
+- Start ardour2 normally, load the session.
+- Add the plugins back.
+
+If all else fails and you want to downgrade back to 0.9.7, you can
+still build it with this SlackBuild. Upstream removed the 0.9.7
+source from their site, but there's a copy here:

+Build with: VERSION=0.9.7 DOCS=no ./caps.SlackBuild
