[Avocado-devel] Avocado-VT JeOS 23 image update

[Cleber Rosa]

Hi folks,

I'd like to inform Avocado-VT users, that we're updating the JeOS 23
image file.  The goal is to improve compatibility with older QEMU
versions.  There are *no* changes within the guest image, only in the
Qcow2 version.

If you're interested in a longer explanation, here it is: the JeOS 23
image was created on a Fedora 23 host machine, which will create Qcow2
images with compatibility level set at "1.1".  This prevents older, but
still relevant platforms to use that image AS IS.

Users will notice that, during an interactive run of "avocado
vt-bootstrap", the following prompt will appear:


6 - Verifying (and possibly downloading) guest image
Verifying expected SHA1 sum from

Expected SHA1 sum: f9c24d609c37ee96f4d53778dc7190cb05c38295
Found /usr/share/avocado/data/avocado-vt/images/jeos-23-64.qcow2.7z
Actual SHA1 sum: b88d553e19736aa3ec61caa7653c5b30e6d4b59a
The file seems corrupted or outdated. Would you like to download it? (y/n)

By answering 'y', you should get the updated image without any other
software update.

If you have any questions, or find any issues, please let us know.

Thanks!
