<summary>Recommended update for python-kiwi</summary>
<description>This update for python-kiwi fixes the following issues:
Update from version 9.17.18 to 9.20.6
- Increase overall allowed `Flake8` complexity level and delete the extra exceptions from code as much as possible.
- Provide the needed `GRUB_TERMINAL`parameter. (bsc#1179245)
- Fixed TestContainerImageOCI unit tests
- Avoid complexity complaints of `Flake8`
- Do not exclude filesystem folders in OCI images. (bsc#1176129)
- Provide `kversion` helper tool for reading the kernel version from the kernel binary. (bsc#1173985)
- Fix check for root device in GRUB config. (bsc#1172928)
- Obsolete `python2-kiwi` and handle the resultant conflicting files. (bsc#1168973, bsc#1156677)
- Search properly for `grub2-mkconfig` when it's called differently in other operating systems.
- Increase spare space on disk rapartitioning and avoid to resize indefinitely. (bsc#1165823)
- When parsing the version of a tool take the longest match and avoid to consider the digit in `grub2` as the version.
- Check for grub mkconfig capabilities.
The check for the capabilities of the tool were applied to the tool installed on the host but the later call of the
tool will be done with the tool inside the image root
- Validate use of `GRUB_USE_LINUXEFI`. (bsc#1165960, bsc#1168480)
On systems that uses `GRUB_USE_LINUXEFI` with grub2 version less than 2.04 there is no support for dynamic EFI
environment checking. In this condition we extend the grub setup to add this support.
- Require `genisoimage` instead of `xorriso`. (jsc#SLE-7200)
- Fix result map for OEM pxe install. (bsc#1165578)
- Add SECURE_BOOT parameter for grub2 in efi mode. (bsc#1167746)
- Fix order in fstab. (bsc#1164310)
Any mount point directly under / should be just right after the root mountpoint and before the custom
mountpoints based on user's subvolume configuration.
- Fixed handling of fillup templates. (bsc#1163978)
Systems using a template tool to generate config files might not be effective when they see the intermediate config
files we need from the host to let certain package managers work correctly. Therefore the cleanup code in kiwi
takes care to restore from an optionally existing template file if no other custom variant is present.
- Start using tftp system user package. (bsc#1143454)
Require `tftp` system user package. This user was created and managed by multiple packages before, with the
risk of having inconsistent criteria on its defaults. Now there is a system user package so whatever package
that requries this user should just require this package and do not create or modify the tftp user.
- Update libyui-ncurses-pkg10 to libyui-ncurses-pkg11
In Tumbleweed there is no longer the libyui-ncurses-pkg10 its been superseded by libyui-ncurses-pkg11.
This fixes the test-image-qcow-openstack integration test
- KIWI creates a redundant btrfs swap subvolume. (bsc#1159538)
- Fix grub2 configuration for shim fallback setup. (bsc#1159235)
If shim fallback setup is enabled the `grub.cfg` is copied to the EFI partition.
- Fix installation chapter in the documentation.
The chapter still outlines multipython support but the support for python2 has been removed some time ago.
- Fixed swap setup if btrfs is used. (bsc#1156908)
In case of a volume manager the simplified variant of the device name is used in the fstab file to reference the
swap device. However this is only correct for the lvm volume management but not for btrfs. In case of btrfs
the swap space is not a subvolume but a real partition and thus the simplified device spec in fstab puts in the
loop mapped device which is wrong.
- Fixed root setup when building in OBS
When building in an OBS worker no `udevd` is running which prevents `grub2-mkconfig` from finding the `by-*` device
nodes and it puts the local loop device in which is wrong.
- Fixed setup of default grub config. (bsc#1156908)
In `/etc/default/grub` `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT` also contained the `root=` information. If `grub2-mkconfig`
runs with that information it places the root device information twice because grub2-mkconfig resolves this
information itself.
- Include `grub.cfg` inside the efi partition. (bsc#1157104)
- Ensures that the `grub.cfg` file is included within the `vfat efi` partition. (bsc#1157354)
- Fix relative path in kiwi repository. (bsc#1157104)
- Fix zipl bootloader setup for s390 images. (bsc#1156694)
- Ensure `grub.cfg` is copied in EFI/BOOT folder. (bsc#1155815)
Fix the live images in efi mode. Grub configuration file is copied to the correct location in
`<boot_dir>/EFI/BOOT`.
- Fix the sha256 generated file content. (bsc#1139915)
Make sure the generated sha256 file in a 'kiwi result bundle' call includes the filename with the correct extension.
For compressed files it was omitting the suffix that included during the compression.
- Fix rpmdb compat link setup. (bsc#1150190)
On older versions of zypper the path `/var/lib/rpm` was hardcoded and not used from the rpm macro definition.
For such systems and to support them properly on hosts that have the rpm database already moved a compat
link was created. However if the host has the rpm database at /var/lib/rpm the link doesn't make sense.
- Avoid default installation of dracut kiwi modules. (bsc#1142899, bsc#1136444)
The dracut modules won't be installed by default in the initrd unless they are requested by the commandline calling
dracut or by a dracut configuration file.
- Add support for custom fstab script extension. (bsc#1129566)
In addition to fstab append and patch features we also allow an fstab.script file that is called chrooted.
The change is needed to support overlay mounting of filesystems as part of the initrd. If system filesystems
needs to be changed in a way that they can be used in an overlay mount, the standard mount entry has to take
the x-initrd.mount capability which requires a modification of the fstab which is cumbersome to handle as a
patch file. This concept is currently used as part of the MicroOS project in SUSE and is applied in the
integration test build maintained for this target.
- Add crypt dependency to kiwi-lib dracut module. (bsc#1142899)
This fixes the dependencies of the kiwi-lib dracut module to include crypt module required by
`kiwi-luks-lib.sh`. In addition it also updates the check() section to return 255 instead of
0. In check section a return code of 0 means install it, 255 install only if required
by another module, anything else, do not install.
- `99-kiwi-lib` requires `rmdir`, install it. (bsc#1143033)
- Do not create a new machine-id file. (bsc#1141168)
Ensures KIWI is not creating a new machine-id empty file in case it was not provided during the system installation.
- Extend spare partition setup. (bsc#1129566)
The spare partition could be used to introduce one additional partition table entry. The following new type
attributes will be added:
- `spare_part_fs="fsname"`
- `spare_part_mountpoint="/location"`
- `spare_part_is_last="true|false"`
Along with the setup of the partition size the filesystem and its mountpoint can be specified. If set the contents
of the rootfs at the specified spare location will be synced to that partition.
The `spare_part_is_last` attribute will place the spare partition at the end of the disk. Note this attribute
is only available for the simple vmx disk type.
- Preserve licenses/other txt files by `baseStripFirmware`. (bsc#1132455)
LICENSES are usually not large and should be kept alongside of the binaries. Also some firmware files
sideload additional txt files (like for example `brcmfmac43430` needs the `sdio` description txt files).
We should just always include them because they're not listed as needed files.
- Update compression flag for `qcow2` format. (bsc#1128146)
In case of a `qcow2` format we store the result uncompressed. Since the format conversion only takes
the real bytes into account such that the sparseness of the raw disk will not result in the output
format and can be taken one by one.
- Support optional `fstab.patch` file. (bsc#1129566)
In addition to the support for `stab.append`, users can now also provide a patch file to change
the contents of the fstab file as it got written by kiwi. The feature is probably rarely used but
needed in the area of SUSE's transactional update mechanism.
- Write `sha256sum --check` compatible `shasum` format. (bsc#1127173)
Change the output format of the bundler shasum file to be compatible with a `sha256sum --check` call.
- Fixed import of signing keys. (bsc#1112357)
- Fix for disk detection from root device. (bsc#1126283, bsc#1126318)
No matter if one ore more devices are used in a multipath map, if the root device is managed by
multipath kiwi has to use the mapped device for all operations, otherwise we run into busy or blocked
state inside of the initrd operations.
- Fix location of grub unicode font. (bsc#1124885)
The change of the location of the font file was not applied if an iso target, live or install image
is being built.
- Handle location of the rpm DB on the macro level. (bsc#1112357)
The location of the rpm database is no longer a standard path one can trust. Some distributions put it to `/var/lib`
others to `/usr/lib`. This introduces the problem of dealing with different locations between the bootstrapping
(host rpm) phase and the image installation (image rpm) phase.
This implements a solution based on an intermediate rpm database configuration. KIWI creates the macros.kiwi file
inside of the image root which is read by any call of rpm in the inner and outer system. During bootstrap phase the
rpm dbpath from the host system is used and later in the install phase the dbpath from the rpm package as it was
installed by the target image distribution is used. In case of a dbpath difference the database is automatically
moved to the new location by setting the `_dbpath_rebuild` macro to the correct location.
At the end the custom KIWI macro is deleted. The macro setup happens before the import_trusted_keys method which
makes any specification for a strict dbpath obsolete. Last the implementation deletes the obsolete
dump_reload_package_database code. rpm is able to automatically do the conversion of different db versions
In addition that code only worked for rather old db versions. The public API has not changed though, but the
method is marked obsolete and does nothing anymore. A new API method `post_process_install_requests_bootstrap`
has been introduced to handle actions required after bootstrap and before installing of packages from inside
the new image.
- Fix Xen guest detection. (bsc#1123185)
- Fixed location of grub unicode font file. (bsc#1119416)
grub2 is expecting the unicode font below the fonts directory in the `/boot/grub*/` depending on how the
distribution installs grub2.
- Add Codec utils for bytes literals decoding. (bsc#1110871)
In case of a literal decoding failure it tries to decode the result in utf-8.
This is handy in python2 environments where python and the host might be using different charset configurations.
In python3 this issue seams to be solved.
- Adding bugfix trace (bsc#1110869)
- Fixed rpmdb compat link setup. (bsc#1150190)
- Align setup.py with the correct license
- `virtual_size` must be an integer in metadata.json
For libvirt vagrant boxes, `vagrant-libvirt` expects that the parameter `virtual_size` from `metadata.json` is
an integer and not a string. Supplying a string results in a backtrace.
