xen-tools 4.6-1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
xen-tools (4.6-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release + Fix usage of nonexistent variable in removeDebianPackage (Closes: #774936) Thanks Lukas Schwaighofer! + Change all occurrences of http.debian.net to httpredir.debian.org + Ubuntu 12.04 Lucid Lynx and 14.10 Utopic Unicorn now EoL. + Preliminary support for Debian 9 Stretch and Ubuntu 15.10 Wily Werewolf. + Installs bash completion into /usr/share/bash-completion/ (fixes lintian warning package-install-into-obsolete-dir) + Allows # within configuration file comments. (Closes: #783060; thanks Jean-Michel Nirgal Vourgère for the bug report and patch!) + Testsuite: Let modules.sh ignore the .git directory. (t/modules.t failed if a git commit message had a line starting with "use ".) + Testsuite: Optimize and clean up modules.sh. + Drop all occurrences of apt's --force-yes parameter. It only forces the installation of untrusted packages and that's unwanted. (Closes: #776487) + Support passing commandline options with --debootstrap-cmd. + Use -o APT::Install-Recommends=false instead of --no-install-recommends for backwards compatibility with older APT versions which don't know either (but accept any Foo=Bar parameter to "-o"). Allows one to install earlier Debian releases (e.g. Etch) with the default configuration again. + Use md5 as default hash method again, to be able to properly set passwords in older releases. Does not affect passwords changed later inside the DomU. + Split off hardcoded release code names list and default mirrors in xen-create-image into separate configuration file which are parsed before the default settings or command-line options are set. + Pass --yes to lvcreate only if LVM version is 2.02.99 or higher. Fixes regression introduced with 4.5 by the fix for #754517. - Add new (build-)dependency on libsort-versions-perl. + Report all SSH fingerprints of the created DomU, not only RSA ones. + Split up test suite in functionality/compatibility tests (t) and author/release tests (xt). + Make test suite support as-installed-testing - Mark package as autopkgtestable. + Multiple release workflow improvements (target release in Makefile): - Use TMPDIR instead of TMP for temporary directories. - Always run the full test suite before doing a release. - Use maximum compression and don't store time stamps in tar ball. - Make "release" target to include "orig-tar-gz" and tagging. + New option --keyring which is passed through to deboootstrap. Its default values work around bug #792729 in debootstrap. + Supports "unstable", "oldstable" and "oldoldstable" as distribution names, too. ("oldoldstable" is not yet supported by debootstrap, see feature request #792734 in debootstrap.) + New example script helpful for release testing. + Support VLANs with Open vSwitch (GH-2). Thanks to Félix Barbeira for the patch. * Update Vcs-* headers and documentation as Gitorious closed its doors in June 2015 and is now only available with static contents. * Recommend debian-archive-keyring (for installing Debian DomUs on derivatives) and ubuntu-archive-keyring (for installing Ubuntu DomUs on Debian). * Reduce the list of alternative xen-hypervisor-* packages to just "xen-hypervisor" which is a virtual package provided by at least all xen-hypervisor-* packages since Debian 6 Squeeze. * Recommend lvm2, it's at least required if the --lvm option is used. * Add an adequate as-installed test to debian/tests/control. -- Axel Beckert <email address hidden> Mon, 20 Jul 2015 16:05:04 +0200
