[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.2.17
by Daniel Veillard
Following discussions on Friday, I applied the patches to deactivate
the subset of Admin APIs and revert from 1.3.0 to 1.2.17. I then tagged
in git and pushed signed tarballs and rpms to the usual place:
ftp://libvirt.org/pub/libvirt/
I didn't run my usual tests on that one, my infra is in flux,
so even more reasons for people to give it a try :-)
I'm likely to make a candidate release 2 on Tuesday and if all goes
well we can push 1.2.17 on Thursday,
thanks,
Daniel

[Libvirt-announce] ANNOUNCE: libvirt-glib version 0.2.1 released
by Daniel P. Berrange
I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package,
version 0.2.1, is now available from
ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/glib/
The packages are GPG signed with
Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E 8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R)
Changes in this release:
- Fix libtoolize detection in autogen.sh
- Allow storage volume format compatibility level to be set
- Add pre-condition checks to more public API entry points
- Don't try to return a value from void functions
- Add API for controlling storage pool autostart flag
- Add API for filesystem image format
- Add loop, nbd and ploop filesystem types
- Fix setting of driver type when called more than once
libvirt-glib comprises three distinct libraries:
- libvirt-glib - Integrate with the GLib event loop and error handling
- libvirt-gconfig - Representation of libvirt XML documents as GObjects
- libvirt-gobject - Mapping of libvirt APIs into the GObject type system
NB: While libvirt aims to be API/ABI stable forever, with libvirt-glib
we are not currently guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are
permanently API/ABI stable. That said we do not expect to break the
API/ABI for the forseeable future and will always strive avoid it.
Follow up comments about libvirt-glib should be directed to the regular
libvir-list(a)redhat.com development list.
Thanks to all the people involved in contributing to this release.
Regards,
Daniel

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-1.2.16
