Public bug reported: We want to release landscape-client 12.04 into precise. The main reasons are: * it now uses apt/dpkg to install packages instead of smartpm * it has a GTK UI interface to configure the client (package landscape-client-ui, located in the gnome control center) * the landscape-client package is installed on demand if needed when the user clicks on the gnome control center icon (package landscape-client-ui-install) * Add support for the new attachment service in script execution, which lightens the load on landscape.canonical.com quite a bit
Attached to this bug is a bzr branch against ubuntu:landscape-client, which is the package currently in precise. The diff is big, but if you remove the tests (--exclude tests) it's a lot smaller. This client was tested as if we were doing an SRU. And we will, once this gets into precise. These were the tests done: Doing https://wiki.canonical.com/Landscape/ClientSRUTests ClientSRU tests status: - Install with landscape/apt-get (pass) - Purge test (pass) - Reinstall client (pass) - sysinfo integration (pass) - Distro upgrade - Via landscape (pass) - Via do-release-upgrade - Package removed due to disabling external repos, but working after reinstall (pass) - Talking to old landscape server - tested against hosted (pass) - install the new landscape-client package in a running LDS server (pass) Also, this client has been constantly running on our linode machines: maverick, natty, oneiric and precise (only precise relevant for this ticket). ** Affects: landscape-client (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Branch linked: lp:~landscape/landscape-client/landscape- client-12.04-0ubuntu0.12.04.0 ** Description changed: We want to release landscape-client 12.04 into precise.
