Dear all, I have released schroot stable version 1.4.0. After testing of the 1.3.x development releases in experimental, this is the first 1.4.x stable release. This release has been uploaded to unstable, and is also available from our public git repository at
git://git.debian.org/buildd-tools/schroot (tag release/schroot-1.4.0, branch schroot-1.4 http://git.debian.org/?p=buildd-tools/schroot.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/release/schroot-1.4.0 http://git.debian.org/?p=buildd-tools/schroot.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/schroot-1.4 The major changes from the previous 1.2.x stable releases are detailed below. Some configuration options have been deprecated and others obsoleted. These are documented in schroot.conf(5), and the user will be warned at runtime when deprecated or obsolete options are used. The most important user-visible change is the new support for union filesystems to create "scratch" writable snapshot sessions of chroots, for which many thanks are due to Jan-Marek Glogowski for his hard work on this feature. This is useful for situations where the LVM snapshot chroot type was previously the only choice, such as temporary clean build environments for sbuild/buildd chroots. A bash completion has also been added, for which Tim Abbott must be thanked. I'd also like to thank everyone else who contributed to this release; the full list is at the end of this mail. Major changes in 1.4.0: 1) Exec scripts have been removed. Unlike setup scripts, these scripts were never used, and there are no known uses for them. Removing them will improve the performance of schroot. The run-exec-scripts configuration option is no longer used, but is still permitted to be used until it is obsoleted in a future release. 2) Setup scripts are now always run for all chroot types except "plain". In practice, scripts were required for all types except "plain" in order to function correctly. The ability to configure this is not useful and so setting run-setup-scripts is now deprecated in schroot.conf. It may still be set for backward compatibility, but it has no effect and will be removed in the future. 3) Chroot configuration files in /etc/schroot/chroot.d are not loaded if they are backup files or dpkg conffile backups. 4) Support for GCC versions prior to 3.4 has been removed. 5) System databases are copied into the chroot using the getent program to use the appropriate name service switch (NSS) modules to get the data, rather than just copying the files. This means all NSS database sources are supported, including NIS and LDAP. 6) Setup script output is logged to stderr which prevents schroot outputting to stdout when run with verbose logging enabled. 7) Most schroot features are compiled conditionally, which should ease porting to non-Linux platforms. 8) Support for union filesystems has been added (aufs and unionfs). This permits the use of read-only block-device, directory and loopback chroots with a temporary writable overlay. For "scratch" temporary chroots, this method is recommended over the existing LVM snapshot support. It is considered to be faster, more robust, and uses less disc space. 9) The "command-prefix" option no longer requires an absolute path to the command. It will use the normal search path inside the chroot to locate the command. 10) When creating a session, the users in "users", "root-users", and groups in "groups" and "root-groups" are no longer preserved. The user requesting access will be the sole user listed in "users" for the session; however, if the user was in "root-users" or "root-groups", they will be added to "root-users" instead. This ensures that only the user creating the session will have access, so that other users having access to the chroot will not also automatically gain access to other users sessions. 11) Kernel personality support should now work on non-Linux architectures such as kfreebsd. If you have any feedback or problems with the new release, please let the developers know at buildd-tools-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org or file bugs in the BTS. You can also find us on #debian-buildd on OFTC.
