The Pulp 2.9.0 is now available, and can be downloaded from the 2.9 stable repositories:
https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/stable/2.9/ The Pulp "2" and "latest" repositories have also been updated to point to 2.9.0: https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/stable/2/ https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/stable/latest/ This release includes many new features, as well as bug fixes. Owing to the more rapid time-based release of 2.9, this release should consist of fewer new features compared to the release of 2.8. This release was slightly delayed by two blocking issues (2035 and 2037, seen below) which were fixed in Beta 2. The release timeline of 2.10 has not been impacted by these delays. More information about our release schedule can be found on the Pulp wiki: https://pulp.plan.io/projects/pulp/wiki/Release_Schedule Known Issues ============ Possible Errata Sync Failure ---------------------------- Several issues were reported against Pulp 2.8 that were not included in the Pulp 2.9.0 release as a result of release timing. The list of issues fixed in 2.8.6[0] outlines these bugs, but there is one issue in particular that can potentially break RPM repository syncing after upgrading: https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2048 This issue is related to resyncing errata from some repositories, and in a pulp-admin sync operation looks like this: Task Failed Could not parse errata `updated` field: expected format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'. Fail to update the existing erratum SOME_ERRATUM_ID. As a workaround, you can choose to skip errata in the feed repository. To do this, you can update the repo to skip errata: pulp-admin rpm repo update --repo-id <repo-id> --skip=erratum This will be fixed in Pulp 2.9.1. If you require errata to be synced from a feed repository, consider delaying an upgrade to Pulp 2.9 until 2.9.1 is released. [0]: http://bit.ly/29vs1bE RPM Publish Directory --------------------- A story related to specifying different package publish directories inside an RPM repo[1], e.g. packages go in a configured packages dir, was included in previous betas and the release candidate for 2.9.0. Testing revealed that the feature didn't perform as expected, so that feature has been pulled from this release. It is likely to return in a future release. [1]: https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1976 Upgrading ========= The Pulp 2 stable repository (pulp-2-stable) is included in the pulp repo files: https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/fedora-pulp.repo for fedora 22 & 23 https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/rhel-pulp.repo for RHEL 6 & 7 After enabling the pulp-2-stable repository, you'll want to follow the standard upgrade path, with migrations, to get to 2.9: > $ sudo systemctl stop httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat > $ sudo yum upgrade > $ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db > $ sudo systemctl start httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager > pulp_celerybeat Supported Fedora Versions ========================= Fedora 22 is no longer a supported Fedora release. We will not be supporting Fedora 22 for Pulp 2.9 and onward. Supported Fedora 24 builds will be starting as soon as possible. We'll be updating our docs soon with more details about our Fedora support policy than what's currently there[2]. In the meantime, Pulp users on Fedora 22 are encouraged to upgrade to Fedora 23 to continue to receive supported releases.
