Public bug reported: Hello,
I'd like to request a Freeze Exception for LXC 1.0~alpha1 to be uploaded to saucy as soon as it's actually released upstream. Saucy currently ships LXC 0.9 with a dozen of cherry-picks for various bug fixes and features from LXC 1.0. As Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will be shipping LXC 1.0 stable, we'd like to have 13.10 ship to something as close as possible to that to maximize exposure to some of the new code. The major changes that happened so far in LXC 1.0 upstream are: - Rebasing of the various commands on the LXC API (dropping various shell scripts and switching to C equivalents) - New implementation of container cloning and snapshotting - Cleaner backing store support directly in LXC core - Support for building with current Android NDK - Quite a lot of additions to the LXC API and its bindings - Initial work towards unprivileged LXC containers - The usual set of templates improvements and bug fixes The LXC git branch is currently built for Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, 13.04 and 13.10 on amd64 and i386, as well as armhf for 13.10 and against the Android NDK. Serge and I, as well as possibly a dozen more people are using those packages daily, so we're pretty confident that upstream git is stable and that 1.0~alpha1 is suitable for saucy. Currently two products ship with LXC by default, Edubuntu (used by arkose) and Ubuntu Touch (used for the android container). I'm the point of contact for both of those use cases and will test 1.0~alpha1 on those two products prior to uploading to the archive. ** Affects: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218426 Title: [FFe] LXC 1.0~alpha1 in saucy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1218426/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
