+Autopilot verwendet nicht blind die höchste Versionsnummer.
+
+Beispiel:
+
+```text
+11.16-1 testen → nicht kompatibel
+11.15-1 testen → nicht kompatibel
+11.14-1 testen → funktioniert
+→ 11.14-1 wird automatisch aktiviert

+Der Nutzer muss keine Wine-Version auswählen.
+
+Die konkrete Ursache eines fehlgeschlagenen Tests wird jetzt vollständig ins
+Updater-/Support-Log geschrieben, auch wenn `wineboot` selbst keine Textausgabe
+liefert.

+## 0.7.1 compatibility fallback
+
+Autopilot no longer assumes that the newest LUG Wine release is compatible with
+every PC. It evaluates recent stable releases newest-first and activates the
+first runner that passes the full local prefix test.
+
+A rejected immutable release is cached against the current CPU/glibc
+fingerprint, so it is not downloaded again every six hours. If the machine's
+runtime fingerprint changes, it is eligible for retesting.
+
+Wine diagnostics now include the actual process error (`signal: illegal
+instruction`, missing loader/library, exit status, etc.) even when Wine writes
+nothing to stdout.
