** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  This release sports mostly bug-fixes and we would like to make
  sure all of our supported customers have access to these
  improvements. The update contains the following package updates:
  
  ovn-octavia-provider 6.0.1
  
  [Test Case]
  The following SRU process was followed:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenStackUpdates
  
  In order to avoid regression of existing consumers, the OpenStack team
  will run their continuous integration test against the packages that
  are in -proposed. A successful run of all available tests will be
  required before the proposed packages can be let into -updates.
  
  The OpenStack team will be in charge of attaching the output summary
  of the executed tests. The OpenStack team members will not mark
  ‘verification-done’ until this has happened.
  
  [Regression Potential]
+ The main regression risks are changes to existing health-monitor mappings 
during startup, member/port cleanup, and OVSDB connection handling.
+ 
  In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the
  aforementioned tests are attached to this bug.
  
  [Discussion]
  The Ovn Octavia provider is the second most used provider used in Canonical 
solutions, the most used provider being Amphora, not being affected by this 
package.
  In charmed openstack, OVN is not the default provider. In sunbeam, the 
LoadBalancer feature (underlying octavia) is not enabled by default, and when 
it is, ovn is the default provider if Amphora is not enabled.
  
  The OVN octavia provider has a dedicated suite in the octavia-tempest-
  test to ensure minimal functionality.
+ 
+ The main motivation is broken IPv6 health monitoring with the OVN
+ provider: health monitors can be created, but OVN does not correctly
+ check the members (LP #2055876).
+ 
+ We are proposing the Caracal maintenance release rather than the IPv6
+ fix alone because the release also includes a correction preventing its
+ startup maintenance from clearing existing IPv4 health-monitor mappings
+ (LP #2072754). Other user-facing fixes include orphaned health-monitor
+ ports preventing subnet deletion and incorrect member subnet selection
+ when creating fully populated load balancers. The linked commit
+ inventory distinguishes these runtime fixes from changes confined to
+ upstream CI and tests.
+ 
+ Testing of the locally built candidate on Noble/Caracal includes:
+ - The regress-stack selection: 170 passed, 16 skipped, no failures; this 
includes eight passing Octavia tests.
+ - The full Octavia Tempest selection configured for OVN: 52 passed, 647 
skipped and four class-setup failures. Those failures report a missing eth0 
interface in backend guests and prevented the affected traffic tests from 
running.
