 ChangeLog
 =========
 
+# V1.6.10
+* [Issue#793 Container install broke from v1.6.7 to v1.6.9](https://github.com/Marus/cortex-debug/issues/793). It appears that VSCode does not install extensions with dependencies fully. Ie, if ext. `a` depends on `b` which depends on `c`, `c` is not installed so extension `a` fails to load properly. While we confirm, report this issue to VSCode folks, a (ugly) workaround has been implemented.
+
 # V1.6.9
 * The RTOS view has been moved to another extension so it can work with other debuggers. https://github.com/mcu-debug/rtos-views It will be automatically installed for you with this update. Note that the RTOS view related settings and commands now belong to the new extension (search for `RTOS` in Command Palette)
 * This release will also install the new memory view extension from https://github.com/mcu-debug/memview. The old memory view is still available (search for `legacy` in Command Palette)

 | symbolFiles | Common | List of ELF files to load symbols from instead of the executable file. Program information is ignored (see `loadFiles`). Can be an empty list to specify none. If this property does not exist, then the executable is used for symbols
 | targetId | Common | On BMP this is the ID number that should be passed to the attach command (defaults to 1); for PyOCD this is the target identifier (only needed for custom hardware)
 | targetProcessor | Common | The processor you want to debug. Zero based integer index. Must be less than 'numberOfProcessors'
-| toolchainPrefix | Common | This setting can be used to override the toolchainPrefix user setting for a particular launch configuration.
+| toolchainPrefix | Common | This setting can be used to override the toolchainPrefix user setting for a particular launch configuration. Default = "arm-none-eabi"
 | BMPGDBSerialPort | BMP Specific | The serial port for the Black Magic Probe GDB Server. On Windows this will be "COM<num>", on Linux this will be something similar to /dev/ttyACM0, on OS X something like /dev/cu.usbmodemE2C0C4C6 (do not use tty versions on OS X)
 | powerOverBMP | BMP Specific | Power up the board over Black Magic Probe. "powerOverBMP" : "enable" or "powerOverBMP" : "disable". If not set it will use the last power state.
-| gdbTarget | External | For externally controlled GDB Servers you must specify the GDB target to connect to. This can either be a "hostname:port" combination or path to a serial port
+| gdbTarget | External | For externally (servertype = "external") controlled GDB Servers you must specify the GDB target to connect to. This can either be a "hostname:port" combination or path to a serial port
 | ipAddress | J-Link Specific | IP Address for networked J-Link Adapter
 | jlinkscript | J-Link Specific | J-Link script file - optional input file for customizing J-Link actions.
 | serialNumber | J-Link Specific | J-Link or ST-LINK Serial Number - only needed if multiple J-Links/ST-LINKs are connected to the computer
