Small issues were found in 1.5 and then in 1.5.1, which is why we ended up with 1.5.2. Respectively, a crash when running aircrack-ng without any arguments and 1.5.1 was still displaying 1.5 as the version number.
Among visible fixes, the slip issue in airodump-ng when selecting an AP in interactive mode is solved, the cursor will stay on the selected BSSID when the list moves around. By rewriting the queues handling wordlists in aircrack-ng, some cracking issues and intermittent failures are fixed. We also have a new output file for GPS logging called logcsv. A few cosmetic issues have been fixed.
There are also code quality improvements, a few new tests, improved and updated Raspberry Pis detection (nexmon), revamped GPS logging functionality in airodump-ng, fixes for Big Endian and building/cross-compiling on various OSes and last but not least, building packages for Ubuntu 18.10.
