Changelog

landscape-client (18.01-0ubuntu1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release 18.01:
    - Ported to python3 (LP: #1577850)
    - move Replaces/Breaks landscape-client-ui rules to landscape-common
      (LP: #1560424)
    - Add a libpam-systemd Depends if built for xenial (LP: #1590838)
    - Some units not reporting swift usage (LP: #1588404)
    - Fix missing install directories for landscape-common and drop
      usr/share/landscape as its only used and created by landscape-client.
      (LP: #1680842)
    - Fix VM detection for Xen, by returning "xen" only for paravirtualized and
      HVM hosts, not for dom0. (LP: #1601818)
    - Add an indication of truncation to process output that has been truncated
      prior to delivery to the server. (LP: #1629000)
    - add /snap/bin to the PATH when executing scripts. (LP: #1635634)
    - Save the original sources.list file when a repository profile is
      associated with a computer and restore it when the profile is removed.
      (LP: #1607529)
    - Drop the legacy HAService plugin, which is no longer used.
    - Avoid double-decoding package descriptions in build_skeleton_apt, which
      causes an error with Xenial python-apt. (LP: #1655395)
    - Remove dead dbus code and textmessage (confirmed not supported in server
      for ~2 years). (LP: #1657372)
    - Move bzr-builddeb conf file from deprecated location to debian/
      (LP: #1658796)
    - Support for new server error message about there being too many pending
      computers already (LP: #1662530)
    - Add a timestamp to the package reporter result (LP: #1674252)
    - Check if ubuntu-release-upgrader is running before apt-update (LP: #1699179)
    - Implicitly trust file-local sources managed by landscape. On upgrades,
      add the trusted flag to the landscape file-local apt source file if it's
      not there. (LP: #1736576)
    - Use local system tools to change the user's password (LP: #1743558)
  * clean up packaging and getting in sync with the new landscape version:
    - d/rules: drop extra:suggests which is unused since 13.07.1-0ubuntu2
    - Remove antique postinst code. No supported landscape-client version
      installs cronjobs anymore (since a long time).
    - d/landscape-client.docs: the README file is now a markdown file, so
      install that instead.
    - d/landscape-common.postinst: no need to single out
      /var/lib/landscape/.gnupg when fixing ownerships, just do it over
      the entire parent directory.
    - guard user and group removal via an empty .cleanup.* file in post, so we
      only remove the user/group if we were the ones who created them at
      install time.
    - lintian: remove absolute path from update-motd calls in maintainer
      scripts
    - d/rules: drop special handling for dapper, hardy and lucid, which are no
      longer supported.
    - d/rules: make sure we have an "extra:Depends=" in substvars even if it's
      empty
    - d/rules: drop dh_pycentral handling, it's obsolete
  * Dropped (already included in this version):
    - d/p/set-vm-info-to-kvm-for-aws-C5-instances.patch:
      Sets vm_info to kvm for new AWS EC2 C5 instances. (LP #1742531)
    - d/p/set-vm-info-to-kvm-for-digitalocean-instances.patch:
      Sets vm_info to kvm for digitalocean instances. (LP #1743232)
    - Add proxy handling to package reporter. (LP #1531150)
    - Fix regression in configuration hook under install-cd chroot (LP #1699789)
    - Report autoremovable packages (LP #1208393)
    - Do not re-register client by default (LP #1618483)
    - Don't report packages that are coming from backports, so that Landscape
      doesn't try to upgrade to versions of packages that are in backports.
      (LP #1668583)
    - Cope with an api change in python-swift that broke swift storage
      reporting in Autopilot. (LP #1563565)
