[Pulp-list] Pulp 2.13.0 Now Generally Available!

[Patrick Creech]

This announcement has been updated from the Beta/RC Announcement.

Things to note:
* The New Features list was just the bugfix list in earlier announcements.  This has been remedied.
* Upgrading pulp from fedora repos to upstream repos still doesn't work.  We will be re-evaluating
this situation.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Pulp 2.13.0 is now generally available, and can be downloaded from the 2.13 stable repositories:

https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/stable/2.13/

New features for Pulp 2.13 include new features added to the Pulp platform, as well as the Puppet,
RPM, Python, and Docker plugins. Many bug fixes are also included in the 2.13.0 release.

More information about these new features can be found in the features list below, as well as in the
2.13 release notes:

http://docs.pulpproject.org/en/2.13/user-guide/release-notes/2.13.x.html

Try out the new features, and let us know how they work for you!


Upgrading
=========

The Pulp 2 stable repository is included in the pulp repo files:

https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/fedora-pulp.repo class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-
space:pre">		for fedora 23 & 24
https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/rhel-pulp.repo class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-
space:pre">		for RHEL 6 & 7

After enabling the pulp-stable or pulp-2-stable repository, you'll want to follow the standard
upgrade path with migrations:

$ sudo systemctl stop httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd
$ sudo yum upgrade
$ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db
$ sudo systemctl start httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd

The pulp_streamer and goferd services should be omitted if those services are not installed.
