[buildd-tools-devel] schroot 1.7.1 released

[Roger Leigh]

Dear all,

I have tagged and released schroot 1.7.1, the second 1.7 development
release.

This release contains no changes to the schroot code itself; the
changes are entirely infrastructural.  This release focussed upon
converting the unit tests to use gtest, and converting the
autotools build to cmake:

* Major changes in 1.7.1:

  1) The unit tests now use Google Test (gtest) instead of the older and
     less powerful CppUnit.  See the README for how to build with gtest.

  2) The build infrastructure has been converted to use cmake in place
     of the existing autotools (autoconf/automake/libtool)
     infrastructure.  The autotools build infrastructure will remain in
     place and fully functional for the time being, but removal in a
     future release is expected.  The cmake infrastructure implements
     all the existing autotools functionality, plus some additional
     capabilities (such as full support for translated manual pages).
     It will be easier to maintain and update than the autotools code,
     as well as being significantly more powerful.

  3) BitBucket source repositories.  In addition to the Debian Alioth
     repositories, I have created repositories at
       https://bitbucket.org/rleigh-debian/schroot
       https://bitbucket.org/rleigh-debian/schroot-dist
     These mirror the Alioth repositories, but also permit using the
     BitBucket pull request workflow to work on schroot and submit
     patches as a more convienient alternative to the Debian BTS for
     external contributors.  This is currently just a trial to see
     if it's useful for others.

The following release will resume work on schroot itself, and may also
remove the autotools support if the cmake infrastructure is
acceptable.


Regards,
Roger
