by Daniel Veillard 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

As scheduled and to gte a release by the end of the month next week, I have just tagged a release candidate 1 version in git and pushed associated tarballs and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ please give it a try and let's ocuse on fixing bugs untl the freeze end. I will probably make a release candidate 2 on Monday, and if everything goes well rol out the 1.0.2 release on Wednesday or Thursday. thanks !

[Libvirt-announce] [ANNOUNCE] libvirt-glib 0.1.5 release
by Daniel P. Berrange 14 Jan '13

14 Jan '13

I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package, version 0.1.5, 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) New in this release: - Add support for bridge interface types in guest XML - Add API to open a read-only connection - Add support for smartcard devices in guest XML - Remove storage volume from pool list after deleting it 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 yet guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are API/ABI permanently stable. As of the 0.0.8 release, we have tentatively frozen the API/ABI with the intent of being longterm stable hereafter, but there is still a small chance we might find flaws requiring an API/ABI change. The likelihood of this is low, however, and we will strive to 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.

[Libvirt-announce] ANNOUNCE: Release of libvirt-sandbox version 0.1.1
by Daniel P. Berrange 10 Dec '12

10 Dec '12

I pleased to announce the a new public release of libvirt-sandbox, version 0.1.1, is now available for download ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/sandbox/ The packages are GPG signed with Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E 8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R) The libvirt-sandbox package provides an API layer on top of libvirt-gobject which facilitates the cration of application sandboxes using virtualization technology. An application sandbox is a virtual machine or container that runs a single application binary, directly from the host OS filesystem. In other words there is no separate guest operating system install to build or manager. At this point in time libvirt-sandbox can create sandboxes using either LXC or KVM, and should in theory be extendable to any libvirt driver. This release has focused entirely on improving the virt-sandbox-service tool Changed in this release: - Fix typos in POD docs for some classes - Only depend on libvirt-daemon-{kvm,qemu,lxc}, not full libvirt RPM. - Switch to YUM for extracting package file list - Bind mount whole of /var rather than only some subdirs - Validate unit files exist before creating sandbox - Fixes to population of files in /etc and /var - Finish 'clone' command for copying sandboxes - Populate /etc/machine-id file - Fix systemd dependancies for bulk start/stop of containers - Symlink container journal directory into host filesystem - Rename sandbox.target to multi-user.target - Fix attachment to running containers Thanks to Dan Walsh for basically doing all the work in this release Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|

[Libvirt-announce] [ANNOUNCE] libvirt-glib 0.1.4 release
by Daniel P. Berrange 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package, version 0.1.4, 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) New in this release: - Add support for configuring power management config - Add API binding for updating device config - Avoid SEGV when querying storage volune with NULL name - Avoid reference count leak when constructing wrapped libvirt objects - Avoid calling g_type_init for newer glib - Add flags for domain reboot API - Fix leak with GMutex compatibility wrappers - Don't use storage volumes before the pool refresh finishes - Add binding for destroying storage pools - Add binding for defining storage pools 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 yet guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are API/ABI permanently stable. As of the 0.0.8 release, we have tentatively frozen the API/ABI with the intent of being longterm stable hereafter, but there is still a small chance we might find flaws requiring an API/ABI change. The likelihood of this is low, however, and we will strive to 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.

To celebrate our 1.0.0 release / 7th birthday, I have prepared a new annimation of libvirt development history using gource, and made it available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKynN8TwC0M Notice the big increase in number of contributors after the switch to GIT in mid-2009.

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-1.0.0
by Daniel Veillard 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Well we just crossed that important milestone in the life of any project, so congratulation everybody the 1.0.0 release is out !!! For a bit of history, this is actually the 7th birthday of the project accounted from the first commit, on Nov 2 2005, public from day one ! CVS converted commit labelled "Initial revision" 2005-11-02 20:50:21 At the time I had one hypervisor (Xen) to play with, and except the general idea and some of the earlier entry point there is nothing left from that first commit, and that is just fine :-) ! Anyway back to useful informations, the release is as usual at: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ as a tarball and signed rpms. For just over a month of development we are at nearly 350 commits so the pace is apparently not slowing down! There is a number of important improvements, but for a change I would like to point out the silent work of our translators communities, work being done in the framework of Transifex: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/libvirt/ we have around 10 languages with near complete translation, historically we had 2 complete localization : japanese and ukrainian at 100% and updating within hours of a new pot source file being pushed, in the last month 5 new indian languages have completed, and various others have made significant improvements.
