  • ltsp (5.5.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version:
        - Support ltsp.init=xxx instead of passing 'ltsp' to tag an LTSP
          client boot (LP: #1562911).
        - Use BOOT_IMAGE to ensure a default ROOTPATH and to determine
          lts.conf TFTP location (LP: #1594840).
        - ltsp-build-client:
          + Select 686 kernel on stretch and newer, as both 486
            and 586 variants are deprecated.
          + Fix use of --apt-keys when gnupg isn't present in the chroot.
            (Closes: #831409).

          + Prevent the nautilus popup window for the tmpfs mount.
    
        - initramfs-tools hooks and scripts:
          + Ensure aoe module is always present.
          + Add PREREQ stanza to all initramfs scripts, otherwise they may
            execute on the running system.
          + Ensure udhcpc is busybox-static, not busybox-initramfs.
          + Avoid NBD timeouts in recent initramfs-tools (LP: #696435).
          + Disable resume on LTSP clients to avoid 5 sec delay.
    
        - Fix support for non-ASCII characters in lts.conf.

        - Don't default to NBD_SWAP=true when local swap was found.
        - ltsp-build-client: Select appropriate kernel package for i386.

  • ltsp (5.5.6-2) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Add patch to avoid always checking weather the ltsp.pot file should be
        regenerated, which leads to unreprodicibility.

  • ltsp (5.5.5-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version:
      
      [ Vagrant Cascadian ]
      * ltsp-build-client: Disable security and updates mirrors when setting
        DIST to "unstable" (Closes: #509643).
    
      * ltsp-build-client, update-kernels: Default to using NBD with squashfs
        image to workaround incompatibilities with overlay FS and NFS.
        
      * ltsp-config:
        - Add support for configuring nfs exports.
        - respect --overwrite with ltsp-config nbd-server (LP: #1487333).
          Thanks to Fotis Tsamis for the patch.
        - Remove support for editing /etc/nbd-server/config, as the nbd-server
          package should handle this itself now.
        - Add --quiet option and use from ltsp-update-image.
        - Fix typo stopping nbd-server.
    
      * ltsp-update-kernels: Remove .dtb files when kernel version is no
        longer installed.
    
      * initramfs-tools hooks: Add support for the "overlay" filesystem in
        mainline linux.  Unfortunately, it does not appear to work with NFS as
        a backend, but does work with NBD and NFS+squashfs image.
        
      * init-ltsp.d:
        - Fix typo in set-time which broke NTP server configuration.
        - Do not disable screen locking when LDM_PASSWORD_HASH is set.
          (LP: #1444693).
    
      * Fix bug in "xinitrc" wrapper to allow it to break out of the running
        loop (LP: #1468630). Thanks to alexfk for the report!
    
      * kiosk: Add support for chromium and fullscreen google-chrome.
        (LP: #1422150).
    
      [ Alkis Georgopoulos ]
      * init-ltsp.d: Disable suspend and hibernate on LTSP clients.
      * init-ltsp.d: work around `su -` not putting /sbin in the PATH.
      * init-ltsp.d: Prevent gnome-keyring from filling up the disk with temp
        files.
    
      * ltsp-localapps, ltsp-remoteapps: Replace 8s with 8u in xprop calls,
        for unicode URIs (LP: #1451915).
        
      * initramfs-tools hooks: move udhcpc request message inside the loop.
      
      * ltsp-config:
        - Create lts.conf when TFTP/ltsp/ARCH doesn't exist (LP: #1483573).
        
        - Stop and start nbd-server, as systemd may not realize when
          nbd-server is inactive.
    
      * ltsp-update-image:
        - properly support overlay, overlayfs and aufs in run_cleanup.
          (LP: #1352038).
        - cleanup.d: Replace truncate with tee to avoid overlayfs issues.
          (LP: #1494660).
    
      * Replace [A-Za-z] with [:alpha:] to avoid locale issues (LP: #1491066).
      
      * Prevent jetpipe from dying after nmap scan (LP: #1273680).
      
      * localapps:
        - Use an IP for CUPS ServerName to avoid rejected connections.
        - Background the CUPS_SERVER DNS lookup in case it takes a long time.
    
      * ltsp-update-kernels: Correctly chmod kernels when e.g. umask=0077.
        (LP: #1502824).
    
    
      * Debian packaging:
      
      [ Vagrant Cascadian ]
      * ltsp-client: Update X-Ubuntu-Recommends to use guru-fonts instead of
        obsoleted ttf-punjabi-fonts.
      * ltsp-client-core: Install getltscfg-cluster manpage.
    
      [ Alkis Georgopoulos ]
      * Remove upstreamed patches.

      [ Vagrant Cascadian ]
      * ltsp-server-standalone:
        - Use different desktop environment on Ubuntu.
        - Fix multiple X-Debian-Depends entries.
      * Remove getltscfg-makefile-flags patch, applied upstream.
      * Add patch to disable swap encryption by default, as it simply hangs in
        Debian Stretch. Hopefully this is only temporary...
