Bug#1025161: new version available

  Given Canonical's relicensing of LXD and imposing a CLA, it's
unlikely that LXD will be updated beyond version
5.0.2+git20231211.1364ae4. This isn't to say it will be impossible to
do so, but I'm not planning to wade through the necessary license
checks of each source file in newer LXD releases.

  Once Incus is fully packaged for Debian, that will be the recommended
path forward for users beginning with the trixie release.

Bug#1025161: new version available

2022-11-30 Thread Mathias Gibbens 
Hello!

  Debian packaging of LXD tracks the upstream LTS releases that receive
bug fixes and security updates for fives years [1,2], as opposed to
tracking features releases (such as 5.8), which are only supported for
one month. Especially once LXD is included in the upcoming bookworm
release, it will be far easier to provide bug/security fixes to the LTS
branch.

  Maybe at some point in the future newer feature releases of LXD might
be packaged in experimental; the current 5.8 release has several new
golang dependencies that I'm in the process of packaging/updating in
unstable.
