- Bug fix restoring the access to the timing breakdown
- Make timing breakdown window scrollable
- Locales update

1.5.1

Update release mechanisms, for Homebrew and building for Windows via appveyor.

1.5.0

A handful of new features, mainly centered around configuration files and video support:
- Portable configurations, supported by ticking `Starting Configuration` > `Portable installation`
This requires write permissions in the root install directory of pympress.
- All keyboard shortcuts are configurable in the config file.
- Support for Gstreamer as a video backend rather than VLC
- Configuration file locations now respect platform-specific conventions better
- Log file locations also respect platform-specific conventions and are written to user locations to avoid problems with multi-user systems
- Options for both video backends to enable/disable, set initialization options, and choose applicable mime types.
- Blank background colour can be black or white (`white_blanking` option under `[content]` in the configuration file)
- Configuration file `pympress/share/defaults.conf` containing default/fallback values.
This file should not be modified by the user.
- The laser pointer can now be switched on continuously
