[Avocado-devel] Avocado LTS Release 82.0: Avengers: Endgame

[Cleber Rosa]

Hello everyone,

This is yet another Avocado release announcement: 82.0, and LTS release, is now
available!

About LTS (Long Term Stability)
===============================

This release is the fourth LTS (Long Term Stability) release.  The
previous LTS release, 69.x, will be supported for an additional 6
months.

Read more about what LTS means here:

LTS Release Notes
=================

To understand what you may have to do in order to upgrade from 69.x
to 82.0, it's highly recommended you look at the LTS release notes:

Release Notes

And if you're coming from version 81.0, this is what changed since then:

Installing Avocado
==================

Instructions are available in our documentation on how to install
either with packages or from source:

 https://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/82.0/guides/user/chapters/installing.html

RPM packages for the current Fedoras (31 and 32) and EL 8 (Red Hat
Enterprise Linux, CentOS, etc) should be soon available on those
distribution's "avocado" module, on the "latest" stream.  A new
"82lts" stream, similar in purpose to the the currently available
"69lts", should also be available soon.

The installation should be straightforward, and you can find
instructions here:

  https://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/82.0/guides/user/chapters/installing.html#fedora

If you need Python 2 support, the 69.0 LTS series (currently at
version 69.3) should be used, and it's available in the "69lts" module
stream instead.

Also, updated Python source and binary packages are available on PyPI:

 https://pypi.org/project/avocado-framework/

Avocado-VT
==========

We also provide convenience packages for Avocado-VT.  Packages are
offered for Python 2 (to be used with previous Avocado versions, such
as the LTS ones) and Python 3 on Fedora 31 and 32.

Also, updated Python source and binary packages are available on PyPI:

 https://pypi.org/project/avocado-framework-plugin-vt/

Happy hacking and testing!
