BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:
* Packer now ships as a single binary, including plugins. If you install packer 0.9.0 over a previous packer installation, **you must delete all of the packer-* plugin files** or packer will load out-of-date plugins from disk.
* Release binaries are now provided via <https://releases.hashicorp.com>.
* Packer 0.9.0 is now built with Go 1.5. Future versions will drop support for building with Go 1.4.
FEATURES:
*
* **Artifice post-processor**: Override packer artifacts during post-
processing. This allows you to extract artifacts from a packer builder
and use them with other post-processors like compress, docker, and Atlas.
* **New `vmware-esxi` feature**: Packer can now export images from vCloud or vSphere during the build. [GH-1921]
IMPROVEMENTS:
* Packer plugins are now compiled into the main binary, reducing file size and build times, and making packer easier to install. The overall plugin architecture has not changed and third-party plugins can still be loaded from disk. Please make sure your plugins are up-to-date!
