xen-tools (4.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
[ Marc Bigler ]
+ Add support for ZFS volumes. (GH #50)
[ Yuri Sakhno ]
+ Eliminate progress reporting which is useless in logs. (GH #42)
[ Axel Beckert ]
+ Add preliminary support for future Debian 12 Bookworm release.
+ Add support for Ubuntu releases from 17.10 Artful to 19.04 Disco.
- Create hooks/artful with new 40-setup-networking-deb-netplan by
Arno Bakker and Peter. (Fixes xen-tools/xen-tools#51)
- Rename hooks/karmic/80-install-kernel to
hooks/common/80-install-kernel-ubu and add according symlinks.
+ Change all occurrences of httpredir.debian.org to deb.debian.org
except those for the debian-archive. The latter now point to
archive.debian.org directly.
+ Set Ubuntu fallback suite to the latest LTS, i.e. 18.04 Bionic.
+ Drop pygrub path detection from xm.tmpl, Xen prefers a path-less
bootloader='pygrub'.
+ Many improvements for the release-testing script.
+ Only run xen-toolstack helper script if both, xm and xl are
present. Avoids warning about deprecated helper script.
+ distributions.conf now supports arbitrary keyring files in
/usr/share/keyrings/. (Needed for some EoL Ubuntu releases.)
[ Nico Boehr ]
+ Add support for LVM thin provisioning.
[ Pietro Stäheli ]
+ Add support for option --randommac for really random MAC addresses
upon every xen-create-image invocation. (Closes: #855703)
[ Axel Beckert ]
* Fix wrong bug number for #849867 in previous changelog entry.
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.1.3.
+ Change Priority from extra to optional.
* Use "$(MAKE)" instead of "make" in debian/rules.
* debian/control: Drop "Testsuite: autopkgtest" header, no more needed.
* Switch "activate" trigger to "activate-noawait".
* Recommend e2fsprogs. (Closes: #887236)
* Prefer btrfs-progs over now transitional package btrfs-tools. (Closes:
#878910)
* Bump debhelper compatibility level to 10.
+ Update versioned debhelper build-dependency accordingly.
+ Only using dh compat level 10 allows one to still build the package
on Debian 9 Stretch without backports, on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and on
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with backports.
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.3.0. (No changes needed.)
* Set "Rules-Requires-Root: no".
* Check $DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS and $DEB_BUILD_PROFILES in
override_dh_auto_test. Fixes according lintian warning.
* Use ubuntu-keyring instead of now transitional ubuntu-archive-keyring,
but keep the latter as alternative to allow one to install the
xen-tools package also on older Debian or Ubuntu releases.
* Suggest grub-xen-host despite the proper support for it is not
finished.
* Add a note about "vsyscall=emulate" and older Linux distributions to
debian/NEWS. Thanks to James Clarke and Jason Crain for the hint!
* Add a DEP-12 debian/upstream/metadata file.
[ Jelmer Vernooij ]
* Trim trailing whitespace from debian/changelog. (GH #54)
