Pulp Community Release 7 is available. This release features ~43 bugs fixed and several
new features/enhancements as follows:
* Role Based Authorization
* Selective Repository Synchronization with Dependency Resolution
* Delta-RPM Local Repository Synchronization
* Enhanced Feedback During Repository Synchronization in Foreground
* Simpler Client Configuration (see: https://fedorahosted.org/pulp/wiki/UGInstallation)
* Database Schema Version 2.
Builds:
* Pulp: 0.138
* Grinder: 0.79
* Gofer: 0.19
Notes:
* pymongo upgrade to 1.9
Upgrades of pulp require a manual step to address a name change to "pymongo".
Pulp had a dependency on a custom packaged version of pymongo called
python-pymongo. We have changed to using pymongo from Fedora/EPEL.
The manual step required prior to upgrade is:
"sudo rpm -e --nodeps python-pymongo"
* /etc/rc.d/init.d/pulp-agent added (on client) and replaces users working
with the goferd service directly
Users should do:
# service pulp-admin (start|stop|status|restart)
instead of:
# service goferd (start|stop|status|restart)
* On the client, the /etc/gofer/agent.conf is no longer updated when configuring the
pulp agent to connect to a remote QPID broker.
Changing the host in /etc/pulp/client.conf [server] is sufficient.
* The mongo database on the pulp server has changed from a default name of
_database to pulp_database.
You can continue to use the existing database by editing
/etc/pulp/pulp.conf file to look like:
[database]
...
name: _database
Or you can export your data to the new database using the mongo client:
$ mongo
> use _database
> db.copyDatabase("_database", "pulp_database", <your-hostname>)
