Systemd packaging for Ubuntu 16.04 This PR is for introducing packaging for Ubuntu 16.04 Ubuntu 14.04 still uses sysvinit and Java 7. 16.04 uses systemd and Java 8. The 'build-deb.sh' script can be used to generate packages. The comments in the file show how to use Docker to build for the different versions of Ubuntu. I've just build: * cloudstack-agent_4.9.0-SNAPSHOT~xenial_all.deb * cloudstack-agent_4.9.0-SNAPSHOT~trusty_all.deb You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/wido/cloudstack systemd-ubuntu1604 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1541.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #1541 ---- commit 6fa05801d828971f7ac76ae028fa304c2bc4cc8f Author: Wido den Hollander <w...@widodh.nl> Date: 2016-04-28T18:59:30Z systemd: Add a /etc/sysconfig/cloudstack-* file This allows users to easily override variables passed to Java when starting up. It also creates a foundation for sharing the systemd service profile between CentOS and Ubuntu since it only requires the environment file to be changed. commit 61157ece4174baf38e331ec26ce09b79e5c49254 Author: Wido den Hollander <w...@widodh.nl> Date: 2016-04-29T08:12:24Z deb: Drop Ubuntu 12.04 support The libvirt and Qemu versions (1.2.2 and 2.0) in Ubuntu 12.04 are to old to support for CloudStack going forward. Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 provide the support required to provide new features and more stability. commit be2cd066919854627fa8456398abd46d1748075b Author: Wido den Hollander <w...@widodh.nl> Date: 2016-04-28T19:42:31Z deb: Add Ubuntu 16.04 support Ubuntu 16.04 differs from Ubuntu 14.04 in a few ways: - systemd instead of sysvinit / upstart - Java 8 support The packaging now detects on which distribution it is being build and based on that it installs different files in the packages, but it also changes the Dependencies. Packages for Ubuntu 16.04 will require Java 8 as a JRE ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
