Hi folks,
I've just released schroot version 0.1.7. The upstream tarball is
available here:
http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/schroot/schroot-0.1.7.tar.bz2
Please could this be added to the Alioth files page?
http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/schroot/schroot-0.1.7.tar.bz2
also needs adding.
Major changes in this release:
1) The chroots now implement locking to restrict access to chroots
which are already in use.
2) The "current-users" and "max-users" configuration options have
been removed. These have been obsoleted by chroot locking.
3) The command-line options "--all-chroots" and "--all-sessions"
have been added, which have similar behaviour to "--all", but
selects all chroots and all active sessions, respectively.
4) Session creation, use and removal is now available for LVM
snapshot chroots, using the options documented in schroot(1).
5) The session commands also work with non-session-based chroot
types (plain and block-device), but is equivalent to using the
chroot normally.
6) An init script is used to recover (restore) session chroots at
system startup.
7) If no chroot is specified, schroot will fall back to using the
"default" chroot. Adding a "default" alias to an existing chroot
will make this chroot the default.
The major new feature is the session management. Once support for
this is added to sbuild (next on my TODO list), you will be able to
use sbuild with LVM snapshots!
Regards,
Roger
